Does the breakout box for the 1616m act as an amp? If so that might make the 1616m a pretty good option for someone who wants a card for both mobile and desktop and is also in the market for an amp.

Actually:
Headphone Amplifier (2 Stereo: MicroDock M and Card)

* Type: linear power amplifier
* D/A converter: CS4398 (dock), AK4396 (card)
* Gain Range: 85dB
* Maximum Output Power: 50mW (dock), 20mW (card)
* Output impedance: 22ohms
* Frequency Response (20Hz-20kHz): +0.0/-0.07dB
* Dynamic Range (A-weighted): 118.5dB (dock), 115dB (card)
* Signal-to-Noise Ratio (A-weighted): 118dB (dock), 115dB (card)
* THD+N (1kHz, max gain): 600ohm load: -96dB (dock), -96dB (card)
* Stereo Crosstalk (1kHz at -1dBFS, 600 ohm load): < -100dB

So apparently it does, 50mW, how does this compare to other amps?

Here is the information for the gilmore lite:
Device Type Solid State (JFET, Bi-Polar Transistors)
Class of Operation Class A
Frequency Response 5Hz-50KHz +/-0.1dB
Signal-to-Noise Ratio >100dB
Total Harmonic Distortion <0.006%
Stereo Crosstalk >85dB @ 1KHz
Gain 6x / 15dB
Input Impedance 50K ohms
Input Sensitivity 200mV to 3.0Vrms
Output Impedance less than 1 ohm
Output Voltage 15 Volts peak-to-peak
Output Power 1 Watt
Inputs/Outputs 1 RCA input and loop out, 1 1/4" headphone out
Operating Voltage 100-120VAC
Power Consumption 7.5 Watts
Chassis Dimensions 5.75 (L) x 4.5 (W) x 1.2 (H) inches
Weight 3lb / 1.35kg

Apparently the output is 20x greater on the Gilmore. I'm assuming this is significant?
