Thanks, Zox, I've put it on my shortlist too.
Sounds promising.

Manual states:

"Connect a pair of headphones to the PHONES connector. You can use headphones with an impedance of 16-200 Ohms (50 Ohms suggested). When connecting the headphones, the PaAS speakers are automatically deactivated."

Why does Korg suggest "50 Ohms"?

Because according to Pa5X headphones max output voltage one 50 Ohms resistance headphone will sound louder that a 200 Ohms but
it's not always true since expensive 200 Ohm headphones have better sensitivity and power loss (efficiency) so max volume will be the same.
