Analogue clipping from digital sources
Given the high output (typically >2v in RCA, >4v in balanced mode) there is in my experience a significant risk of overloading both the analogue stage of the DAC and any pre- or power amp downstream. Fighting that with low volume settings on the attenuator only further aggravates the issue. In my case I have to run the InnuOS Zenith’s Mk3 output at 85% to deal with audible overloading of the DAC/ amp with audible distortion. Anyone with similar experience?
