This is why I bought the original 1V output version of the Neko D-100
DAC.  The input sensitivity of my Rogue M-180 amps is also 1V.  So I
should be safe.  Well except from annoying the neighbors.  

In fact, I was just playing around with going direct to the amps and
forgot to turn the fixed volume feature off in 7.6.  No where close to
speaker-damaging volume, but I'm sure the neighbors heard it.  

However, I find I have to go rather heavy on the DVC for moderate level
listening, around -25dB, when going direct.  When using my pre-amp,
"serious" listening volume is typically -10dB to -20dB below unity
gain, depending on the recording.  

I have some 10dB in-line attenuators, but the problem with them as that
I then don't have enough volume for the occasional recording cut at a
very low level.
