Hi,
I need a USB-powered amp for my laptop. Of course, I want the best I can find and it must be small. Something like the headamp pico would be good. Though, I don't want to always use its DAC, but also use its line-in and still have the amp powered by the USB port. Too much hassle taking the AC adaptor around... There's plenty of portable amp with DAC out there, but I only know one that can be powered by USB without using its DAC, it's the Headroom BitHead. Do all the others do so?
thank you for your help
regards,
--Kel
