Alright, I must have been high since I didn't read the manual as carefully as I should have. It explicitly qualifies 0-4.5Vrms as "at 0dBFS PRE Mode". Which of course allows for the possibility of a higher voltage in +18db mode. But you're right John, it's nuts to expect a full 35.7V; I'm not well-versed in this and I came up with the same figure using one of those online calculators, but I figured I had done something wrong. Maybe one of the Matrix guys can chime in and let us know what the actual maximums without clipping are.
