+1 - categorically bit-perfect when vol=100 (DTS and HDCD prove this). The Touch doesn't need the -63dB setting for the analogue outs that was useful on the SB3). There is no additional "analogue" level control on the Touch. The Touch is a new circuit not a tweak to the SB2/3 circuit. On ALL SB's the digital level control is always "in-circuit". The analogue outputs on the SB3 did NOT need to be off for bit-perfect output - the digital level needs to be at 100 and no replaygain... As I don't need client-side HDCD decoding or dts playback, I prefer to use replaygain and proper gain staging through my system. I'm never going to agonise about the perfection of the 16th or 20-24th bits :-) I do agree that an option to lock the Volume at 100 should be provided (although replaygain will still override that!).
