Thanks for the review Amir, and for the sample, shenzenaudio. This looks like a nice clean product. I like the mains in, the simplicity of no preamp passthrough, the display, and I am impressed by how well the relay-stepped volume attenuator does with channel balance. I agree with others who have stated the relay-stepped attenuator really adds value. I don't mind the clackiness of the relay-stepped volume attenuators Schiit uses, but I am fine with that being their thing and the SMSL product being less noisy. Of course, the rest of the performance is easy to endorse as well. Great job to everyone at SMSL wo contributed to this!
