Output Voltage Swing

The output voltage swing is the maximum peak voltage that the output can produce before it starts clipping. This voltage is dependent on the voltage supplied to the op amp - the higher the supply voltage the higher the output voltage swing. A manufacturer's datasheet will specify an output voltage swing for a specific supply voltage - usually $\pm15$ V for audio op amps.
