Sorry - just found my own answer!... http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?ConnectToPowerAmp "Reducing the volume on the Transporter or Squeezebox occurs in the digital domain before the DAC. If you have to keep the volume very low to "fix" the line level mismatch, you are losing dynamic range and SNR.
