Adding Headphone Drive?

I am considering buying a preamp without a headphone socket. I do need a headphone drive in the unit or an easy cheap add on to listen to all sources. Any ideas or do I have to hold out for a pre with a headphone jack?

Cheers

Just buy a separate headphone amp.

Which will run off the tape loop in the pre. Alternatively, many hp amps have a loop out of their own.
