What's a Madrigal Harmon? 
Mark Levinson 526 as Headphone Amp
It doesn't look that special. Says it drives up to 32 ohm cans. That eliminates a bunch.To appreciate the dual mono topology it should have a balanced jack.

Laptop vs music server when streaming over WIFI
Dedicated streamer is always cleaner than a dirty computer.Best to get a wifi extender or mesh system and wire it to the streamer. Stick with hardware that concentrates in one job.

If you're gonna spend that mush for cans you really should have an amp. 
Balanced vs. Unbalanced Inputs
The stumbling block here is that the signal "ground" (return) and the (arm, chassis) shield are different. Always.As Moncrieff recommended 35 years ago put your single ended cables in a mesh tube attached to pin 3 and the amps chassis.Over and out. 
Dopes anyone know where I can locate a Phillips ASD_2002/board 3139-243-31373-01?
I resemble that remark. 
Is speaker design art or science?
Magic doofus.

Yeah it'll work but the BluSound persistent queue is a PIA for playing local files.
