My company, Atma-Sphere, has been producing balanced preamps for home use longer than anyone else in the world. We patented a direct-coupled output that is one of the few ways AES48 can be supported. So I understand the benefits of balanced operation!
WRT to Manley's headphone amp, I don't think its aimed at the pro or semi-pro market. But it could be used as a balanced preamp, although you'd need an adapter to break out the left and right channels.
