"Benchmark does not offer balanced headphone outputs on any of its products."

Read no further.

It costs more to do correctly (Balanced DAC, balanced amplification and balanced output). Maybe as much as twice as much so no, they don't offer it.

Wondering why.

Now, placing a balanced headphone jack on a singled ended headphone amplifier certainly WON'T sound better, but hopefully if the system is balanced through the DAC and audio signal amplification then it certainly should sound better and on my DAC/Headphone amp it does.
