To be honest I've owned both, still own the pico slim and they never made a matte version, ever. If you go onto their website, you only see glossy (www.headamp.com). It's the only portable amp I haven't sold yet because they're that good and sexy looking. After looking closely, it looks like those are actually matte so this must be special batches for Massdrop, I don't think it looks as nice as their site units tbh.
JustinWilsonThanks Justin, it's a very good price and a fabulous way to one your amps however I prefer the glossy type, it just feels that sophisticated.
myopicUnfortunately, a picture of the previous glossy version made it onto the drop. I've asked that the incorrect picture be removed. As Justin said, this is a special Massdrop only satin finish, not the older polished finish, for both units.
EdipisReksSorry for the picture but you got to admit they both look great in a glossy format, the only thing is you got to be carefull not to scratch them. ;-)
