Just noticed the unit in the pictures does not have the input and volume displays as shown in the folder... Or does only the D unit have the displays ?

Glad you enjoyed them. Analog Domain creations are for sure of a different and intriguing approach. You'll read soon about elaborated approach with Isis on each step. Its a gear, that also tickle my inner clock .
