Toga, the P8 has variable gain (from -10dB to +10dB); you could have added 5dB more with the OFFSET function.

Also, the D-03 gives 4.4V max on the balanced outputs, that's not so low.

Gain offset for each individual line input with a ±10dB range

This allows you to compensate for the different output levels amongst your various source components you will be connecting to the P-8. Slowly rotate the volume control clockwise and “OFFSET” will appear in the display. Press “OK” and the factory default of “+6.0dB” will appear in the display.

You can adjust the volume offset in either 0.1dB (slow rotation) or 1.0dB (faster rotation) increments to either +10.0dB by rotating the volume control clockwise or –10.0dB rotating the volume control counter-clockwise. Once you’ve found the appropriate setting, press “OK” and “SAVED” will briefly appear in the display the “OFFSET”.
