Headphones powered by a preamp output?

Has anyone explored this idea? I'm thinking about ways to utilize the 2nd pair of XLR outputs on my preamp. Isn't it possible to wire the 2nd pair of outputs to a headphone amplifier or would you have better results driving a pair of headphones directly?

I am not sure that you have been given a complete answer.

With Krell preamps, there is plenty of power to drive most headphones. To use the XLR output, you will need an adapter. I am not sure if this is the best way to go, but it is a possibility.
