Yes, that's the major downside of this PA5 amp. Together with the matching DAC E50, even in balanced mode, the volume level maxed out is not enough to sound good with certain albums, like acoustic stuff, vintage classical...
Speaker are reasonably efficient 88db.
I must now find a suitable preamp to boost the front end!
With modern recordings, no problem though.
