I once thought about a way to losslessly create a 6dB headroom but only got critics :) http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?98706-Idea-to-increase-quot-Headroom-quot-with-lossless-volume-change
I also have the feeling attenuating helps in a way. I could swear my old PCM63 was distorting much more often my poor magnetostats with clipped music. Since i use my Transporter as preamp i always stay clearly away from 0dB and hear these distortions much less. I have no correct comparisons and maybe the PCM63 simply does other things wrong and not this clipping to create this.
