  Laser engraving a new batch of Pico Power boxes today
 

I still love my Pico Power. It has actually been serving as my desktop amp for the past 6 months and it is perfect for IEMs. It drives my recently arrived ETHER beautifully too.
 
Justin; I would love to see you create a balanced (trans)portable amp, along the lines of a Cavalli Liquid Carbon...

What do you mean by compare? Mojo is a DAC/AMP, PP is an AMP. Do you want a comparison between Mojo standalone vs Mojo with PP?

Sorry perhaps I was not specific, wanted a comparison between Mojo and Pico Power as a portable Amp working with DAPs like AK240 and driving headphones/earphones.
 
In the last San Jose meetup heard AK240 >>Pico Power >>HE 1000 setup, was blown away ! So thought of purchasing it, now i could see Chord Mojo also in the talks so wanted to decide between the two.
 
I have a AK240 so would be great if anyone can provide inputs on AK240 + Pico Power Amp Vs AK240 + Chord Mojo Amp to be precise

Does your Pico Power has scratching noise when adjusting the volume?

You can try the contact cleaner for your volume pot. Mine was making a scratching noise and spray of contact cleaner eliminated the noise.

I wanted to ask the same thing. In terms of output power and driving versatility.
I would be pairing it with a output impedance modded AK100.
 
Thanks.

mmmmmm, I'm happy to hear that. My iBasso PB2 just died and I chose the PicoPower as it's replacement. Amazon, had it in stock thankfully. I even double up and grabbed a 4 year warranty! Still, hopefully if iBasso get's back to me I can compare these two monstrous power houses!

Real quick though, these are the batteries that are recommended on the HeadAmp website, has any one else tried them? I've seen the Bigger 740 mAh 9vs http://www.batterymart.com/p-c-rli-9600-9v-lithium-ion-charger.html and I'm not sure if These will make a big enough impact, to merit the increase in price...

If they REALLY do make a difference, then Chances are I'll get them

A shame this thread isn't more active, got my PicoPower in today. Right off the bat, I got a little more powerful bass when I swapped into 600mAh 9v over the alkaline duracells, even worse the batteries my unit shipped in are from 2012! They are set to expire this December <.< shame on the Japanese Seller I got them from, either way the price was really good so no worries.

Still so far, coming from my PB2 I notice the PicoPower amp is a LOT blacker, though my Pb2 was designed for Balanced use, and I primarily use'd it for SE, so it's not a 100% fair comparison, still I'm quite happy with it :3 I'll have some official impressions and a review here shortly!

Pico Power available on Massdrop

 

[HeadAmpTeam]

The Pico Power available on Massdrop is the same as the original in every way, except the chassis finish is a new matte bead-blast that we have been introducing across our Pico line. Still a few days left for those who were looking to get in on this deal.
