Yeah, I've noticed the decimal point signifying 0.5 steps. At first I was wondering why it took two "notches" to raise the volume at higher levels.
The clicking doesn't bother me, funny thing is that I'll bet they chose to have HI gain mode (switching resistors?) kick at higher volumes rather than simply two levels of gain like the 901.
This would mean lower volumes will have less distortion.

Remember, I have 6dBL of attenuation, due to EQ in Foobar, so my computer's output volume is less.
Unless there some insanely low impedance speakers or hyper sensitive headphones, it takes quite a while to hear anything when cranking the volume up from zero.

If I were listening through headphones OR speakers (not likely, those are insanely high levels), I would never notice it. Good catch, Ed. If Michael G. is listening in, maybe he will shed some light on what is going on. |
