Thanks @ROSEHAN.
For me, the absence of a trigger (physical connection) is a deal-breaker.
I do not think the “Automatic stand-by mode” you describe can replace a physical trigger : The 130 would continue “playing” even if the amplifier is switched-off. Unless there is a feed-back information from the amplifier that would instruct the HifiRose 130 that the amplifier is off which would, in-turn, instruct the HifiRose 130 to switch to stand-by mode.
Eversolo and other high-end streamer have such trigger. Is there any chance a trigger will equip the next generation of the 130 ?
Thanks.
