Holy Crap!

The TTVJ Millet Hybrid Portable is powerful enough for the K1000's!

Comparing it head to head with my Grace m902 right now. The Grace has tighter bass, but the Millet Portable does not have a collapsed soundstage and clipping which is typical of amps lacking the power to drive the K1000's.

This is the first (truly) portable battery powered amp I've heard that drives the K1000's well.

It also works great daisy chained with the Pico for a truly ultimate portable solution. The noise floor of the TTVJ Millet Portable is higher, but it doesn't matter with the K1000 since it's insanely inefficient. So if I want to listen to really efficient headphones, I can plug directly into the Pico.
