I have a question about Pico:
Does Pico have protections from "over charge" and "over discharge"?
Especiall I'm interesting in "over discharge". I mean, Does it cause damage to the batterry that running Pico for burn-in and its battery comes empty?

The pico has some pretty serious protection circuitry in it, a lot more than just the meager stuff that is built into the battery. I'll leave it to Justin to explain.

I am really looking forward to test this thing

BTW
Was there any improvement lately on the quality of it ?
Like a new version or what so ever ?

And
I wonder, does the fact it connect to a USB doesn't decrees SQ ?
I know that usually Optical is better, why doesn't it have an optical input ?

Please add me to the ever growing list. Black on black with a DAC and 3' USB if you would.

Cheers,

I bought one used and it is waiting at home for me to play with after work!

I have heard the pico and knew that I had to have it once I had the money together.

Was hesitant because of the wait, but happened to come across a deal.

My portable journey is OVER!

Thank Goodness.

I am not that happy with USB, usually the SQ isn't good with USB as much as I heard and know



Because that's not what it was designed for? And Justin's implementation of USB as a source is radically different from what other, seemingly similar products are doing.
