Hi, I read the manual and did a search but couldn't find the info I was looking for - I'm hoping someone who owns the JBL LSR 4326P (or 8's) can help me set the gain structure as I'm confused

I have my 4326's connected via analog to the main outs L/R of my digi003R (although, if anyone thinks it's better to use spdif I'm happy to switch)

Where I'm lost is which level(s) to set. Both the JBLs and DIGI003R have level controls and BOTH have to be turned up to pass audio. I know there has to be an "optimum" way of setting them and then only adjusting my listening volume on one or the other but not both (FYI I'm NOT talking about listening level ie 85db I'm talking about the physical settings on the JBL/Digi for the best headroom, noise, etc.)

As a point of clarification I also have Mackie HR824mkIIs in another room and those are basically just ON or OFF - the volume is adjusted on the DIGI003R only... I'm hoping to do the same thing with the JBLs.

HELP! (thanks!
