HeadAmp Pico Portable Amp (w/ optional upsampling 24/96 USB DAC) Pre-Order Thread

[Poimandres]

I just ordered a Pico Amp/DAC this past Wednesday, very much looking forward to it.  Has anyone paired the Pico with any Heir Audio products, specifically the 8.A?

Hi Justin, 
 
I found that you were able to make your DAC/amp work with the iPad.  Was that just with the lighting CCK only?
I am hoping I don't need some USB hub to connect iPad 4 to your DAC/amp.  Also a few posts back you provided a link to an interconnect you used for your Note 2, do you have another suggestion?  How about the FAW Copper/Silver Series Android Digital LOD from Forza?
 
Thanks!!

you just need the CCK

Thanks Justin. What is the wait for a red dac/amp?

 

[Poimandres]

After the long wait, today I finally received my pico dac/amp. Impressions to follow after some listening. Waiting for the charge to complete.

Still waiting for the charge to complete...I will say that the pico is very small and extremely well built. Heres to hoping that the sound is as spectacular as its build quality. It is built the way you would expect a 500 dollar amp should be. From the photos and the measurements you expect it to be small however its size is so ridiculously small it is hard to believe how a dac and amp fits in an enclosure that tiny.

Thanks to Justin for all of the help and support, he is without a doubt a great person to deal with.

The sound from the pico is spectacular and it is overall the best sounding amp/dac I have heard. It certainly isnt outclassed by its beautiful exterior.

have anyone paired this one with a note 2 or any other android device?

Works fine on a s4, make sure that you request the mod. Justin is a great guy and will bendover backwards to help you out however his communication is sub par.
