The old rule of thumb was that for each 6db of digital attenuation one
lost 6 db of resolution. I believe that no longer holds with devices
that are processing 16 bit data with an internal resolution that is
higher (i.e. 20 or more bits). I have a squeezebox 3 and use the digital
output into some pretty good equipment starting with a big ben to
re-clock the data stream. The SB3 is being pressed into double duty as a
volume control for a little while. Am I degrading the signal?
