Default Can I plug my speakers directly into the Micro DAC output?

I might be headphone amp-less for a while. If I can control the volume level using the Windows volume control, can I plug my active speakers directly into the output of the Micro DAC? (original 9V model) Is it completely safe to do that in the electrical sense? Will the impedance match be ok? Will there be any degradation besides the fact I'm using Windows mixer?
