Could a Creative Zen Nano output enough to blow a driver on a Grado SR60?

Maximum power ratings are usually less than what they really are, to err on the side of safety.

. I am just being super careful, I just got both of them for Christmas, and I don't want to harm them. As it is right now, 13/25 on the Nano is plenty loud for me.
