Hi Everyone,
My soundcard can output at -10 dBV or +4 dBU. It is outputting to, among other things, a Yamaha stereo receiver. I would like to know if the receiver can handle the +4dBU. What is the relevant specification that I should look for in the receiver's documentation that would explain whether it is capable of handling this extra voltage? I know that most consumer audio products are unbalanced and also that they look for -10 dBV. Basically, I wanna output at +4 dBU but would like to confirm that I will not damage the receiver's circuitry.
Thanks in advance,
