Since there are several standards for full scale digital, metering is best left to the device being fed. Additionally, as the clip point of the MA-4HP exceeds +30dBm (with a minimum gain of 8.5dB this equates to greater than +21dBu input level handling) clipping is unlikely to occur and additional circuitry would increase the cost of the unit.
