Hi! First, don't be put off by the volume controls being 1-11 on the web and 1-40 on the remote UI - the control covers the same range, you just have more resolution using the remote. Second, the reason it sounds too loud will be to do with the sensitivity of the amp you are driving it with- other people have complained its too quiet! But the good news is that there is a feature just for you. In the web interface, go to Player Settings - Audio and look for "Preamp Volume Control". This is the value of attenuation in dB which will be applied to this player regardless of the volume setting. Default 0. Try som other values like 10 or 20 - look for the value which , when used with "max" on the normal volume control, gives you the loudest volume you can imagine wanting. This feature was added relatively recently, so if you don't find it you should download a more recent version of slimserver.
