ZERO has one LINE OUT, but it is switchable between: (1) fixed output; and (2) regulated output (regulation via volume control on front panel).

Yes, the regulated LINE OUT is amped the same way as headphone out.
Not sure if we understand each other. Fixed LINE isn't amped. Regulated LINE is amped.
M3 has volume control so you can just use ZERO switched on fixed output LINE as DAC without volume control. ...or no?

Since typical amplifier (stand-alone) has input impedance of 10kohm the output will be "only" 4Vrms.
Yes it's bad for signal, but it's like having preamplifier which is quite common and not supposed to be bad...
