I have no intent to return this unit that sounds good and operates Static, Tube, Tube+, XBass and 3D without any issues (no pop), and is less warm than my first unit. There are too many chances to get another bad unit instead of this one
.
It seems that our units operate in the same way, which is not far from how they should be (Led issue aside)
If iFi acknowledges that the Leds are not powered, can explain what is going on and that this is not an issue, I am good with not retuning this unit.
If they offer a return to further investigate, they will have to send a new one to me so that I can triple check the new one is ok before returning the one I have.
A bit what I did with Adorama, but on my expense (I had to buy a second unit, wait to return the first unit so I could compare them and now wait for the refund on the first unit after shipping it).
