Audiofreek, the cost largely depends on the parts you use, features you implement, tools you need to buy.
To give an idea of how much it would cost..
My BOM with opa627's, with fairly good quality components across the board came out to a bit over $150.
I also paid $50 more for some quality hookup wire, switches, solder, volume knob, and rca jacks from other sites, and with it, I bought myself some new tools for about $150.
The AD8610's will cost about $25 less than the opa627's, and you can get rca jacks and a volume knob at Mouser for pretty cheap, so if you already have the necessary tools, building a standard PPAv2 for $150 won't be very hard.
