Hi I have exactly the same experiense - hence problem with my SB3 Classic. I bought a second hand Mission Cyrus XPA to drive my speakers with the feed from the SB's anlogue output. This move was to keep it simple and get rid of my NAD surround receiver with a number of analoque "ports" I basically don't need. So, big was my surprise and regret to discover that playing low-volume music is not an option...?!??? :o(
Regardless of the (appearently) many volume-steps on the SB it seems to start the first step at what I would asume is about 15% of fuld volume. >From there the volume control seems to be reasonable linear. That is not usefull - since it is impossible to play low back ground music! Anybody (Slim Devices people!!!) any suggestions for a solution or comments for that matter...that does not imply additional equipment like e.g. a pre-amp. That undermines the fact that the SB is equipped with volume control. Btw changing the nice name and logo of "Slim Devices" was IMHO a biiig mistake. I found a very nice second hand SB3 with the new remote and the old logo and name...me like! ;o) /Landhoff -- Landhoff Slim Devices SB3 - v.107 // TS-109 Pro 2.0.1-0324T // SSOTS 3.0.14 // SqueezeCenter 7.2-22440 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Landhoff's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17321 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54606 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
