I ordered and paid for mine through a third party; still I have no reason to believe I was sold a Ref. 7 instead of 7.1. My order was custom (single RCA; a second BNC instead of the AES/EBU) and the unit I received was indeed assembled that way. It took nearly 3.5 months before AGD built and shipped it to the third party's shop; if they were to sell me a stock Ref. 7, the whole thing must have taken much less than that.
I guess the other Ref. 7.1 owners can help clarify this: does the chassis of their units have a LED hole? Maybe some do (no LED whatsoever?) while others don't. Still the unit reviewed by John Darko back in April had both hole and LED light, as seen in the picture:
To drive a long story short, maybe we cannot tell between Ref. 7.1 and 7 from the chassis alone, unless we remove the top cover. What are the differences inside?
Did you buy this from Audio-gd or from a third party? If it was from a third party, someone might really have sold you a Ref7, not a 7.1.
I suggest you open up the cover and look inside.
If you purchased it from Audio-gd, then it appears they have decided to give us different chassis because my Ref 7.1 has no hole and therefore no LED.
I'm pretty certain my Ref 7 had it, but my 7.1 surely does not...
