I don’t fully understand the technical aspects, but I don’t think it’s a good idea to have such a setup. Even if only one of the devices is powered up, the output stage of the ‘dormant’ device is effectively connected in parallel with the output of the ‘live’ device. In extremis this may cause damage – I think it’s something to do with output/input impedance and the dangers of overloading the source (or Beolabs, or dormant device). Be careful!
I agree with you and was thinking on similar terms of some sort of signal still reaching the Core.
I’ve got 2 of those Powerlink switches coming anyway so I’ll make the switch soon… 🙂🙃
