Actually, the red light is optical, blue coax and green USB. Push the Input button until the light goes blue (I assume you are using COAX). If no luck, fiddle around with the Preamp section. If you are using your headphones straight from the Zero's headphone out, press the Pre amp button and turn the volume up to the volume which is comfortable for you. If you are just using it as a DAC to another amplifier, then turn off that Preamp function.

I am going to get something like that soon, after my birthday in a few weeks. My pick would be to go back to the AV 40 if I dislike these ESI nEar 05 monitors. I should be able to sell them for a reasonable profit, considering they usually sell for $400 brand new here.
