I'm currently using my D100 Mk2 DAC, Donald North Audio Sonett, and Audeze LCD-X.
Many headphone amps didn't really do it for me but Donald North's stuff sounded absolutely wonderful to me. Lots of clarity and none of the haze or distortion I heard with most solid state stuff, but accurate and neutral without the flavoring found in many tube amps.
Between the LCD-3 and LCD-X, I have chosen the X because it provides a better overall frequency response. But the 3 has better transient response, so it's a bit of a trade-off.
IMO, fully balanced is worth the expense in electronics for the sonic improvement, and balanced cables can be worth it for connecting your headphones to your amp because it reduces crosstalk and rejects interference.
