Accept the extended maximum level?
High 2V extends maximum level by 6 dB and transition may produce artifacts. Continue only with agreement to pause and lower headphone volume first.
Look for: Explicit informed acceptance is required before the next action.
- If I accept these effects → Pause media
- If No / leave this unchanged → Continue with source and model support
