I'd like to get a quick answer from someone that has heard this at the meet. I don't care about size, but I want to know how the sound compares with the Meier Corda Opera through its DAC? I know the Opera is more than double the price of this amp (with DAC), but I am curious to know please.

If one or two people can tell me that they think this amp sounds better, then you can count me in for a Pico with DAC. But I'd rather not preorder one until someone can possibly answer me.

Thanks! Great work Justin, your amp looks incredible, both design and size wise. From the reviews I've read, it sounds extremely exciting.

I've never heard the opera, but the pico is pretty darn spectacular.

Justin,


Hang my name on 1 Pico (with DAC) and if possible all silver, well if possible.


Thanks

In terms of the Pico's DAC I can tell you that the WM8740 is a great chip - I've heard it in three CD players so far (Cambridge Audio Azur 640C V2, Arcam CD73, Arcam FMJ CD33) and have been impressed by all three. It's a high-end chip, used in many different CD players ranging from ~$700 all the way up to $3K. And based on specs alone the Pico looks impressive as it is. As I said before, sometimes you just have to make the leap! The people who haven't heard the Pico outnumber those who have and look how many pre-orders there are already!
