Has Justin suggested what this DAC will be sold for?

The wait has definitely been worth it, just paid the customs ransom on mine and picked it up from the depot.

I use my Pico as DAC/Preamp to my GES and the synergy is better than using my Apogee mini-DAC, especially with O2 Mk2. Have you tried it that way yet?

Where did you see that regular picos are in stock? My understanding is that the silver/gray picos that were in stock in mid-december were out of stock fairly fast.

I'm still waiting on my Pico that I ordered back in September.

It would look like you are one in the market for one of Justin's new DACs without the Amp in it. He is supposed to be making them available sometime this month. I think I will be getting one of the new DACs from him.

Yes, I am in the market and Justin is already aware of that

Thanks kai, it really is a tiny little powerhouse, its hard to believe theres a dac and headphone amp crammed into the tiny chassis.

Just found a mini to rca cable and hooked it up to the woo, it sounds amazing, every bit as good as if not better than the apogee duet. Ive set it on low gain with max volume and the volume dial on the woo is at its usual 10 o'clock position. Its really hard to take in that they are being fed by something not much bigger than a matchbox.

kudos to you Justin, its a superb piece of engineering
