   The best amps are pretty much all dual supply. The big advantage is   
   simplicity of the circuit - and of course not having the coupling caps   
   (you need to put another set at the output, by the way).   
      
   Generating a negative rail is pretty simple even if you only have a   
   positive one available. An oscillating op amp, a diode and a capacitor   
   does the job nicely.
