New for me is the TEAC UD503. I bought it to be a front end for my bedroom audio system - but because it sets on my night stand I am using as a headphone amp as well. It has no noise, music sprouts from either my Sennheiser 580's or my Etymotic ER4's, out of blackness, with detail and clarity.
The other audio interface I use, that has another "out of blackness" and dynamic headphone output is my Sound Devices USBPre2 device. It is mobile (though not self powered)and travels with me. Excellent A/D's - and even when powered by a cheap USB power supply in a hotel room and not my main system power conditioners, there is no noise and harshness ever...
Both of these are a little pricey at $1k for the Teac and $900 for the USBPre2. But not bad if you consider incredible A/D and D/A's are included.
