Compatibility of headphone amps to focusrite pre amps

I am a novice home recorder but the bug has bit and I am expanding into some mid range rack gear. My setup is an focus rite 18i8, which I have just complemented with a octo pre dynamic, into a beefed up iMac, using reaper DAW.
The18i8 is a very good little unit which I will keep for use on small projects and for use with my PC laptop.
At some stage I hope to do live recordings and will then probably upgrade to a FireWire interface in the Safire range.
What I am chasing at the moment is a headphone amp with my eye on the Presonus HP 60 and an Art (which I forget the model name)..
Are these a good choice for this setup and what's the best way to set it up?
I aim for solid mid range gear with a good name, backup and durability.
Obviously ease of use and unwanted noise are paramount.
Is this a good choice and OK value?
What's the best setup?
Cheers..
 
I have a Presonus HP4 which is fine, except one of the pots is scratchy which, while annoying, is hardly fatal.

I'm sure it's an OK unit if you need that many channels and assorted functionality.
