An input bias cancellation stage for an audio operational amplifier is provided. The input bias cancellation stage includes an input differential pair, a current mirror, and a bias duplicator transistor that substantially duplicates the input bias current. The bias duplicator transistor receives substantially the same emitter current as the transistors in the input differential pair, and has substantially the same Vce as the transistors in the input differential pair. The current mirror mirrors the duplicated bias current and subtracts it from the bases of the transistors in the input differential pair so that the input bias current is substantially cancelled.
