Wow! Questions:
1. Does this have a rechargeable battery? Does it have AC adapter so you can run it off the AC (very much like the Pico amp)? If not, at home use, it will use up a lot of battery. Yes, answered in my previous post.
2. Is the Dac in here better than the Dac in Pico? Significantly better, no offense to HeadAmp.
3. Can the dac be used just as a stand alone dac? for other amp and headphone use? (sorry if this sounds way off). I don't think this feature is planned.
4. I have the 13pro. In my listening, I prefer the soundstage and the detail of the HD800(the accentuated treble on HD800 gives it more noticeable detail. Can someone give comparisons? You will have a ball with the JH-3A, because that's one of it's strengths. I'd still recommend considering a new 16 version with it, because you will be be able to digitally tune it to the JH13 presets if you wish, but you'll also retain the extra headroom and richer bass texture option if the recording demands it. That way you can still use your existing 13s with your regular amps, but will have the best of both worlds with the JH-3A.
thanks much appreciated. really felt I was done until this...
