Fair enough, makes sense and I can visualize it.

Actually, they all missed the color tint tweak you asked me to do.

Cool knob, Justin.
What kind of volume pot are you using?
Also, is there going to be a line out if you just want to take advantage of the DAC?

I didn't say that...I said there was no good way for me to add it without removing some other feature, and I wanted use with headphones to be most important

Just use the Pico output jack as a line out if you want to feed another amp, the Picos amp won't degrade the signal from the DAC much if at all. Thats what I'll be doing.
