Does anyone know what type of volume control the E07K has? In
this review this guy says it is a digitally controlled analog volume control, but wouldn't it need at least 61 resistors just for that?
He is right about it distorting above 45/50, he even advises to limit your volume and use +6dB gain but I find the gain changes the tone/signature/coloration/whatever, sounds different with gain and of course dynamic range suffers a bit.
I've only had mine for 3 days but I only use gain on quiet albums, for everything else 50 volume is enough without gain, I'm using it as dac with a pair of HD 439.
Any thoughts?
