How much hiss does the Icon 2 issue when connected to non-nuForce speakers?

The original Icon (in)famously wasn't designed to work well with non-nuForce speakers.  - the nuForce folks (including Jason several times on this board) said that to achieve no hiss with standard speakers, you needed to use separate nuForce components.

Does the Icon 2 fix this issue, and function more like the separate DAC/amp? Or does it retain the hiss that came from the original Icon?
