According to the manual specifications it only lists the following:

Analog Line Outputs (2)
Type: balanced, AC-coupled, 2-pole low-pass differential filter
D/A converter: AK4396
Level (auto detect):
Professional: +12dBV max (balanced)
Consumer: +6dBV max (unbalanced)

How do I figure out what the heck this means in terms on Vmax for input relative to gain for a headphone amp and line level of +4dbu or -10dbv for speakers?

Anybody have any idea, the manual isn’t exactly helpful in this regard.

Edit: I think I figured this out from googling the math. +6 dbv should be +2V RMS right?

If it’s balanced at +4V suggestion on the speaker input line level?

2V RCA and 4 V balanced are common values
Your math looks right to me

Keep in mind that all that specification means is that the mfr has attempted to adhere to the line level output standard. A simple measurement will reveal whether that's true.

Should I be using +4dbu input sensitivity on my jbl lsr 305 monitors with balanced inputs from the emu 0404?
