Not sure where this belongs, so I will post it twice (here & Headphone amps (full size);

looking at the Bel Canto website, they were at CES and announced a number of products, at least 2 of which have special interest here;

"e.One DAC2.5 192kHz 24-bit DAC Control Center
Independent DAC Headphone Circuit
....A ¼” front-panel headphone jack driven by its own DAC/Amplifier combo that optimizes both headphone and main-out listening."

and,

"e.One DAC1.5 192kHz 24-bit DAC Control Center
Independent DAC and Headphone Amplifier
... like the DAC2.5, a ¼” front-panel headphone jack driven by its own DAC/Amplifier combo that optimizes both headphone and main-out listening."

Probably looking at the Benchmark products and thinking "we can do that"
