It's to make it go silent on the other outputs when you plug in phones ? That's usually what people wants no audio in your speakers when listening to phones , all the amps I have ever had worked like this ? Notice that Touch outputs are all active in parallel and with the normal firmware I don't think it's possible to turn off analog and digital separately just like the volume acts on both analog and digital . It simply mutes the software player that's doing the stuff . I think bluegaspode suspect some software defect in conjunction with certain headphones , the problem was widespread . But it could ofcourse have been just a widespread quality problem . I think people did try to clean and other stuff . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
