that scares me unless you are using it to drive speakers. even then its a bit much

default gain is 10

I thought that seemed odd. As tempting as this is I have emailed @spritzer to see if he has anything suitable at the moment. I live a long way from a post office, which is a long way from anywhere else, so life gets expensive when things go boom...

Yep, usual gain for SPEAKER amps is around 10-20 (20-26 dB).  Headphones generally need less, which is why in the bad old days the headphone jacks on integrated amps and receivers often had a resistor in series to cut down the gain, and possibly also to prevent the amp from blowing out the headphones.
