that leads me to this question: i intend to buy a little dot mkv after the zero. Is it of any use to use the amp section of the zero if i buy the mkv? Or am i better off turning it off?

It would appear there is plenty of bandwidth with the plastic cable I use mini to mini and mini to toslink. |

I will take the plastic and ability to flex and bend over and over to the more delicate and expensive glass, when the plastic is done right. I get mine out of Canada, they aren't expensive and I can get lengths including the ends of 3.5 inches. |

The Zero Head amp makes a lot of heat though, and long term, I most likely will D/C it. |
