I think that is a great idea in terms of writing McIntosh.

The work around is that I simply turn the amp lights on and off manually depending on whether I’m in 2 channel mode versus HT but it is a mild annoyance.

I am not in the same place as my C1100 so can’t comment on its behavior but I think the amp lights stay on or turn on. I know I can’t change the lights from the front panel in pass through.

I think the correct behavior is:
If Passthrough active then all lights out - preamp tube lights, amp and preamp meter lights.

Your thoughts?
