The only limitations I can think of, have nothing to do with the sound: leaving the volume control half-way to extend the life of the optoisolators took some getting used to, and indeed the lowest setting lets will let some minimal signal through, which compared to my previous setup, however, is well within my tolerance, and greatly superior to my earlier direct CD to amp connection. The overall experience is far beyond my expectation. This is a product that I will not be parting with, period.

Glad you like it so much Erwann, as for leaving it at 12o'clock when not listening, this is not set in stone, as the leds should last 10-20 years at full power, which I never run them at, and by leaving it at half volume should double or tripple this life.
PS don't forget to let us know how your $15K!!!! analogue source sounds through it when you get the chance, as analogue lovers have told me it's the best they have ever had their records sound.
