makes sense I guess.... although when using the digital input from the
Beosound there's little going on on the display

volume is fixed at 100% in the settings, I use the Denon to control the
volume level

whilst I've been giving the system a bit of a belting testing it, these
days I listen to much lower volumes.... damn tinnitus heh

don't have either, and getting to the back of equipment is a notorious
pain in the arse... all looks great with nought a cable in sight, but it
means it took me over an hour just to switch out the old DAC with the TP
hah! :D

I have all of the naff auto room EQ and Audyssey disabled on the Denon

When listening to music I only use either Pure Direct, or 5ch Stereo.

hmmm strange, I can understand the TP getting a lot warmer than my old
DAC given what it does, but like I said in comparison to the Denon which
one would expect to get pretty toasty, the TP runs hotter after a good
few hours.... how it runs hotter than something like the Denon just
doesn't seem quite right to me?

I'm sure having it in between the Rotel and Beyonwiz isn't helping
matters and I expected it to get a bit warm in there, but no where near
as hot as it's getting!

Bugger that the VU meters aren't available using the digital inputs, is
there any kind of mod or hack to enable this? (wishful thinking I'm
sure!)

One last question, is anyone using the TP with a Logitech Harmony
universal remote? The setup software is highly annoying since it doesn't
let you manually set up the remote the way one wants, though for most of
my devices i've managed to get around the way it TELLS you how it should
be setup... i've tried assigning the 'favourites' button and then the
'play' button to select the digital input (it's the only thing i've
added to favourites), yet after the remote turns on the TP it doesn't do
it... one would have thought given they're both Logitceh they'd work in
"harmony" with each other
