Any experience with it?

Just a little bit. I carry one as a backup to my usual on-stage amp (Fischer Amps In Ear Stick). With Minerva Performa Pro IEMs the 2 amps sound basically the same to me but the Behringer is definitely noiser - no problem on stage but would be intrusive for music listening. I should say that on-stage monitoring isn't necessarily the most demanding use for absolute hifi.

Minervas spec - 122dB SPL @ 1mV, 75 ohms at 1kHz, and they go plenty loud enough. in case that's helpful.

Yes, thanks. Noise is important. In my intended use, composing and practicing, it will be annoying.

I haven't spent much time evaluating it, TBH, just a quick check to make sure it will work okay if called upon. I'd happily test further but all my stage kit is stuck in transit after a hastily aborted tour. Guess why...

I know I'm quite late to the conversation, but is the consensus that the P2 would not be a good sleeper for portable listening? How about the P1? It's obviously quite a bit bigger, but it seemed cool that it can run on both battery and AC power.
