It's also a function of the sensitivity of your power amps. At the moment, I'm running my ModWright TP directly into a pair of tube amps as I try it out in different configurations with different equipment in my home. My experience won't be completely relevant to you since I'm using the unbalanced connection. Nevertheless, at maximum volume it's about as loud as I ever listen... just below Headbanger level, reserved for certain metal recordings ;-) Anyway, I definitely don't have a problem with it being too loud, and there's lots of useful range using the built-in digital volume control. I'd recommend that you try it first before ordering attenuators. It's desirable to keep the volume control near the top of its range, which is the case in my current application. If you have to throttle it way back, then you're potentially throwing away a lot of bits, which is when you'll want an attenuator. But it MAY not be necessary. By the way, I think you'll love it! I'm certainly enjoying mine.
