I have an old RPi lying around on which I was thinking of installing
piCorePlayer and use as a small inexpensive headphone listening station.
However, I heard that the jack on the RPi is not very good to use with
headphones (in this case I would probably be using a pair of
Beyerdynamic Dt990). The sound is low quality and not very loud.

I looked into the HifiBerry but the jack on the DAC+ is explicitly
stated as not suitable for headphones. The HifiBerry AMP does not seem
to have a headphone jack either. 

So now I am wondering what it would take make the setup reasonable? Is
there some alternative to the HifiBerry that does work with headphones?
Or would it be better to get the HifiBerry DAC and a small external
headphone amp? In the that case, is there some amp you can recommend
(not too big, and not too expensive).
