Personally I would be more interested in a headphone amp from Nelson via FirstWatt.

Just looked on the Pass Labs website, no mention of a headphone amp at all ... has it been canceled?

Didn't find anything new on the web and no response here, so I guess it must be a goner.

Reno HiFi, First Watt's major distributer, told me otherwise. They're planning on getting the amp late in November or somewhere along those lines.

Are you referring to the Pass Labs Headphone amp or is there actually a First Watt headphone amp designed by Nelson in the works??

It's a Pass amp, but I wouldn't be surprised if he decided to experiment a little on his own someday and offer one from First Watt.

Yes, please Mr. Nelson a First Watt head amp would be great.

Now available at Reno Hifi, and they even have a Black Friday Sale.

At this performance level (or at least price bracket) it should come with balanced output options which means it should have balanced internal design in the first place, otherwise an XLR to TRS adapter will just do the same. But what do I care?... GSX-Mk2
