Weiss 501 DAC Question

Last night sound... today no sound. Amp appears to be ok. Fuse Aok. Steamer is a roon cone feeding two other working streamers.  Does the little red triangle on the left below the speaker icon mean anything? Using remote can get the red arrow to the top left.

Well it was busted and I sent it back to the Mothership in Switzerland. Yes @mike_in_nc Daniel Weiss was very helpful. Very. Support was excellent. Additionally post fix he asked might I be interested in upgrading to the 501MK2? All those on line reviews with superlatives about the 501MK2 are right. When my wife says, "wow it sounds better" that's really something. Did I neglect to mention the upgrade and say back to her, "yes the repair was very good"? Survey says.....

I got a Schitt MIMIR DAC for the time out and it worked but... and that's that.

I'm glad to hear it all worked out so well.

(The worst thumbs up icon on the internet)

Mk2 upgrade is on the to-do list.

The new Schiit DAC is getting excellent reviews even said to be better than some of their longstanding ones near $1,000.

It's an inexpensive backup but you wrote, "Schitt MIMIR DAC for the time out and it worked but...."

How did it do in your system during the Weiss repair?
