Yes.  The first page says that, along with several entries in the spec sheet.  Then, on page 6 lists absolute maximum.  12.6V (I was .1V off).  To me, that's awfully close.  I chose not to go there, especially when 9V gave me what I wanted in the first place.

In many ways and places, I've learned not to get too close to the maximum rating of devices.

Not at all.  Look at the first page of the datasheet, which recommends 
supplies from 5v to 12v.  I've deployed thousands of them running at 12v 
(usually, +/- 6v) with superb reliability.

That said, today I use modern CFB amps with 36v supply ratings for these 
jobs, and if I had a Z10000 I would certainly retrofit it with one 
without a second thought.  There is no substitute for headroom!

Best regards,

Charles
