[QUOTE="Jordan Wolf, post: 34784, member: 316"] Re: +4 dBu or -10 dBV? Craig, You'll want to run them at +4dBu. -10dBV is typically referred to as "Prosumer" or "Consumer Line Level" and is common on consumer-level equipment; RCA connectors are usually involved. -10dBV= (approx.) -8dBu (a 12dB difference from "Professional Line Level"!) A difference of 6dB equates to a halving of the voltage; -12dB would give you one-quarter of the original voltage (from 1.23V down to about 0.316V). [/QUOTE]
