Does anyone have any experience with Pro Ject Audio’s Amp’s and Dac’s? They are one the options in Norway so would be good to know if they are a good option.

Size is small also and clean.
Only bad thing it has is, when plugin in headphones. It will also play powered speakers… so automatic power-on/sleep does not keep monitors offline. So they need to turned off all the way.
Workaround with remote power plugs, so no prb.
