Double amping may be a bit demonized around here, but have you tested the headphone out in this manner? With what secondary amp?

I guess that depends on whether or not low gain is unity gain or not.

No, no-one has tested the Pico yet apart from at the meet, AFAIK.

I'm just assuming it will sound OK!

We'll know for sure soon.

Ok, so can anyone answer the first question I asked above please?
Also, what opamps are you using, Justin?

Default Pre-Order Pico with DAC

Hi Justin,

Would like to reserve one Pico with DAC shipped to Hong Kong. I do hope the DC adaptor is universal voltage. If not, I would need one for 220V a.c. supply.

Thanks,
F. Lo
