You'll likely >hear distortion if you use higher output levels. 92 will only give 0dB IFF the dynamic bass, bass, midrange and treble settings are all 0 I am sure there is a blind friendly version of the manual. I can never find anything in the wiki, so I leave it for another to confirm the exact location. However, documentation is the fun of very few, and with the rate of development here, I guess it too is out of date. You MAY be able to use a TT input if you take the Jukebox volume down low enough, but TT inputs have an extra amplifier stage which makes them unsuitable for "Line Level" devices (eg. CD Player) Your best choice is to connect digitally, then all the settings on the Jukebox become irrelevant. But be warned low-bitrate files will NOT be transmitted via SP/DIF ...I've often wondered if Rockbox could patch the MP3 file real-time to fix this, but not looked deeply into it. ON+Play will get you the context-sensitive menu for a file or directory, much like right-clicking something under windows.
