    Help setting input sensitivity on Genelec speakers

    Thanks ! The SPL is lower, the sound is more relaxed in this configuration and i can use more of the volume knob. Any chance to overload something at +6 dB regarding 6 Vrms output level of the preamp ?

    Genelec 1030A input sensitivity with Nuprime preamp ?

    Thanks, i will leave it at +6 dB for a moment and see if there is a real improvement. There maybe no distorsion, but the sound at -6 dB was very loud quickly and over-detailed i would say.
