Yes, that was what I thought, too (as a possible explanation).
And these must be the posts:
 

   
I wonder if you have taken my advice, and are prepared to spin some vinyl??

Thought I laid the sarcasm on pretty thick...will throw an extra scoop on next time!

 
OK bro, you got me there.  

 

[RickB]

  Wow, some of you guys need to switch to a decaffeinated brand. 

 
Or green tea (1/5 the caffeine).

Correct. I was hoping to get a listen to the Mani. I bought one anyway. I got it this morning. Planning to use it with my new PrimaLuna, which has not yet arrived, but is "on the truck".

So, while we're all waiting for Jason's next chapter, how about an update from @cozzi on the Bill Frisell listening experience and the COD...inquiring minds, mate.  LOL.

If I remember correctly you where the one most outspoken against me posting at all on this forum. 
 
Edit: Sorry that was not you at all.

@Jason,
 
I've been wishing to ask you for a feature for a long time, but always managed to forget when I was online...
Well, it's really a tiny tiny change on your volume knobs.  I find difficult at times (depending on the ambient lights or my position) to tell the exact position of the volume knob (i.e. the little dot engraved on it) relative to its whole range.
So, I'm NOT asking for another LED, but would painting that dot white (or red, or black, or some other color you like) be something you could consider implementing in all your future volume knobs?

You can get some nail polish and do it yourself. There is a machined cavity on the surface of the knob that will hold enough polish to be easily seen.

Or do as good safe practicing audio guys/gals do and always start from zero.  You can ALWAYS turn it up!

Yes, of course! I've already come up with that solution...

It was merely a request/suggestion for the future. Nothing too important, though, and something people can certainly manage to do on their own, as you already pointed out.

Yes, that is true too. I always follow that rule. But if you were to subsequently adjust the volume while wishing to keep an eye to the actual level, you might still want to be able to see that dot from a wider angle.
But, again, there's a simple solution, as @winders pointed out.

Maybe a variety of little stickers could be included...but then again...
 
 

 
Sometimes you just need a little more reach on your desk, the Shredded Wheat extender! If you remember this from the late 50's, well you're getting old.
 
A new Chapter will save us......maybe

 

 

[DSNORD]

Yeah to the visible volume indicator. Something like this- for the neighbors.

 

[Baldr]

  We know Mike doesn't have a vinyl setup yet.
 

I beg your pardon??
