The coax output on all the SB devices is right on the money voltage
wise, no need for any attenuators. 

The crystals used in most of the SB devices are pretty cheap crystals
with fairly wide initial tolerances (well within the official S/PDIF
spec though). 

SOME DACs have a special narrow band PLL which allows for significant
jitter reduction, BUT they have a hard time syncing to sample rates
which are fairly far away from the official center frequency. Its
possible to get a squeezebox which might fall in that category. 

Such DACs will almost always have a "wide" setting which will lock onto
the further out signal.

If your DAC doesn't have the narrow PLL you can ignore the above.
