Edit: ^^^Vinnie KNOWS!
I have a question: Will using the headphone out mute the RCA outputs?
Please correct me if I am wrong as I don't want to give false info.
This is very interesting thread...I'm so tempted to hop aboard.

I believe the variable output will only go from DAC > potentiometer > RCA out, and not through the headphone amp at all.
