How much benefit will a headphone amp bring

I sometimes listen to to my second system Marantz CR612 later in the evening through headphones. Would I seem much improvement from something like the Project Headbox E, connected via the CR612 Amp output RCA connection. i.e. RCA to RCA.

System: CR612 .
Headphones: Usually Sennheiser HD659, closed back. I do have open backed headphones but these are not used when others are around, for obvious reasons.

I find the CR612 sounds a little lightweight compared to my PM6006 amp using the same headphones. I am unwilling to spend more than £150, if there would be benefit. My usage case would not warrant the expenditure.
