The Aries has a bit of a design flaw with the overhanging top and bottom, making it difficult to unplug plugs which have a 'latch' on them, i.e AES. You need to get a pen or screwdriver blade in there to undo the plug latch.
Yes absolutely right - makes A/B testing a nightmare!
Actually I'm also slightly concerned by the plastic finish on the unit. It's a metallic look but to my eyes looks like cheap plastic. Interestingly this has come up on the Computer Audiophile site. It might be that I have an earlier unit.
