I have a day dedicated to listening to music and will be doing both the pico with senns and ipod, as well as with my cd/dac source. The quick try earlier in the week was quite surprising but i noted the dial was up over the 1 o'clock position (there was a bit of background noise). I will see how i go today but i am now at the point where pulling the pico out of my portable setup and putting it into the 2 channel is just a pain. Roll on the MM!

You heard background noise with Senns and the Pico? That's gotta've been in the source/track! I just cranked mine up to 3 o'clock on high gain with my HD600s - nothing.

Perhaps even more convincing is that when I use my IEMs on low gain and turn it up, I cannot hear any hiss... only one other dac/amp I've heard is capable of that.
