RME babyface better than Schiit magni? (alien.top)

I’m in a situation where I might switch from an Audient ID22 to an RME Babyface Pro due to hardware failure. The catch is, if I make this switch, I won’t be able to use my Schiit Magni anymore because all the outputs of the Babyface will be dedicated to my KH120 speakers. This means I’ll have to rely on the Babyface’s regular headphone output for my Audeze LCD-X.

So, I’m curious: can the headphone amp in the Babyface Pro stand up to the Schiit Magni in terms of driving power and sound quality for the LCD-X? I’m really interested in your experiences or opinions on whether the Babyface Pro can deliver a comparable or even better performance.

Any insights or comparisons you can offer would be a huge help in making this decision!
