Any advantage having a 3V Dac output?

Hi all!

Wondering if there are any advantages or disadvantages having a 3V output from a Dac. I understand that a 3V output would be an advantage if one is using a passive preamplifier (attenuator). Any comments?.

Thanks in advance,

I just got a MHDT Stockholm v2 DAC-3v.  I was using the DAC output on my Emotiva ERC-4 CDP at 2v.
Into my  Decware Mini Torii the MHDT produces more volume at the same volume settings when compared to the Emotiva.  With a 4 watt amp it makes a difference
