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?

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

I haven't been online much of the weekend so I just saw this now. You know my feelings on the original volume knob, I have to say I'm really liking this one, seems like it's a blending of the original and the AE-2's. The recessed screws also give a better representation of the final product. It's amazing what those little things do to the overall look. Again, amazing work edwood.

You better reserve 'em quick. It looks like the first shipment preorder spots are almost all filled.

I just did a total tally of preorders on this thread. Including Asr's order for two units, Fkclo was the 75th reservation. Sorry monte, it looks like you're #76...  But the good news is you will be getting a Pico, just not in the first shipment.
