Jérôme.......This is very interesting news. I can well imagine the Manley 300B sounding fabulous with headphones, and with plenty of power. I notice that it can drive two pair of headphones. That is a nice extra. You are correct about the price, $5850.00 U.S., so one would have to be a serious headphone aficionado to consider the 300B for a dedicated headphone amplifier. A nice option is it can also be considered a spare two channel tube preamp, so it is multi-purpose.
For this to be sitting on your night stand, you would also need a new source component.
