The Fiio K9 is almost perfect, except the one main annoyance for me is the "Output" switch, changing from headphones to pre-amp for my active speakers can get a bit annoying. I have on some occasions flicked switch a bit too far and gone full blast Line-out.
To me it makes more sense to have the Line-out as middle toggle and pre-amp all the way on top, so easier to ensure not to get full blown to the max speakers.
Or even better, simply have 2 options only i.e. 1) headphone out and rear-out and then have a 2nd dedicated switch to set to pre-amp or line-out. Some other amps already do this like the Questyle amps.
Im the meantime, I assume there is no way to completely disable "Line-out"?
As in, even if toggle selects Line-out, it does not activate.
