Re: [slim] Syncing volume on some players but not others.
Unfortunately, seeing the same results that you are seeing - volume change on *ANY* player will cause all players with "sync volume" set to sync to its volume. In my test it was the Receiver in my bedroom that I left at "don't sync volume" and set the Boom and the Receivers in my living room and office to "sync volume". When I changed volume in the bedroom, all of the other players synced to it at the beginning of the next song. When I changed any of the other players, all of the players *except* the one in the bedroom synced volume. It doesn't appear that when "sync volume" is set on a player that LMS checks to see if the other player that changed volume has "sync volume" or "don't sync volume" set. Not sure how a change request/suggestion is made, however, it might be a useful change to have only players with "sync volume" set to affect other players with "sync volume" set and ignore when players with "don't sync volume" have volume changes. Any chance the Classic is connected to something that you can control the volume via remote or app? That way you could leave it at full volume in LMS and just use LMS to change the volume on the Boom and Duet. Somewhat a trade off between using another remote/app v readjusting the Boom and Duet volume when ever you change volume on the Classic via LMS "You know, I'm all for progress. It's change I object to."

Thanks for doing this. I've read what you said carefully and have done some more investigation. When I adjust the volume on the Duet or Boom, they both change. The Classic doesn't change volume. That's as expected. When I adjust the volume on the Classic, all three players change volume. That doesn't sound right although, reading your message, it might not be the case you tried? If you still have the players set up, I'd love to hear what happens when you change the volume on the unsync'ed player.

Re: [slim] Syncing volume on some players but not others.
Just gave this a try - synced 3 Receivers and the Boom, set 2 Receivers and Boom to sync volume, leaving 1 Receiver at dont sync volume. When I change the volume on any player, every player that is set to sync volume does. If I change the volume on any player other than the one set at dont sync, only the ones set to sync actually sync. Im running 7.9.2, but if 7.9.1 works the same, you may need to readjust the volume on the Duet and Boom anytime you change the volume on the Classic, but the Classic wont change when you change the Duet and Boom.

IMO using more than half the volume knob is good the pot is more linear there , hence the azur could be sensible designed to not have to much gain ei you have to twiddle the knob more . In practice most amp has to much gain so you dont have as much margin as think , with a strong source its clips and misbehave long before you reach the and of the volume control . To much gain is usually for two reasons people can have old analog sources with 0,25-0,5 volt output or less , think cassette deck old tuner vhs player . A CD or squeezebox is about 2,0 to 2,5 volt.
