By the way, silly me missed the initial review. if someone would be kind enough to post a link to it so that I can rectify my stupidity I would appreciate it.

I would certainly hope that someone as insightful as ASR wouldn't be run off by idiots who just want to make trouble. Just ignore those posts (and hope the poster goes away) and move on with the discussion.
Come back ASR, we miss you.

The deletion had nothing to do with the Pico or HeadAmp, it's maker. It was a positive review.

You can PM me for it, I don't want to give a public link without the writer's permission. This review does affected my decision and I am absolutely satisfied.

Getting mine soon and I'll try to post something but only if it has some synergy with my DT880 or EX90. My lossless tracks are all ready.
I just received my new Zero One AR38 DAC - fully discrete, zero feedback Class A output, so will be a good reference.

Placed my order in May and just received mine today; unit #409. Much smaller than I expected.
Charged for 3hr before use and running Foobar using lossless thru MDR-90EX and DT880. The sound is surprisingly full bodied. I was half-expecting a cold sterile sound after reading comparison reviews against Predator.
Not much low bass on cello and highs sounded a touch wavering on flute & guitar but quite OK on piano. I'll run in for a couple of days to see if there's any change.

Giving this thread a bump back to the top because Asr has edited, updated and reposted his Pico review.
