Worth it for the O2/ODAC combo for convenience?

I think im going to go ahead and order the o2 bamboo with aluminum knob 

 

I know everyone was going to loose sleep thinking about my decision tonight....

I felt the aluminum knob looked and felt out of place and that the black one looked nicer.

I actually have the plastic knob on my personal o2. I have a "rare" if you can call it that, front panel as well. I kind of want to release them again.

Sorry for the crap picture, way to lazy to get out my DSLR.

Eh, no. Probably not. There's too many options as it is, and people sometimes get confused/scared when there's too many options. We used the acrylic front panels WAY back, before we even had our website. There's maybe 20 of them floating around in the wild somewhere.

Wouldn't be to hard to do it yourself. Though if I did, I would swap the led for a green one.

Can't - LED's are actually functional in the circuit.

You can buy one from Stefan, you just need to unscrew the front 4 screws and swap the knobs.

Would it be to hard as to replace it with an electrically identical led thats just green?

Yes, the color of the LED represents the current needed for power management. Long story short - You can't change the color without drastically changing the circuit.

We switched from the red LED's to orange/yellow ones. They look a lot better.
