They are working well, but I have a problem with the power control with the one that is installed in my Sauna. When I'm relaxing there I'd like to hear soft music or nature sounds, but even at volume level 1 (on a scale from 1-100) it's a bit too loud. I have asked Arylic support and they were really friendly and explained a way to solve my problem: + +: they are just too loud with my speakers that I have installed in the ceiling. I have set the volume to 1 or 2 via 4Stream app and with API commands already, e.g. + +set volume to 1: +curl 'http://192.168.1.64/httpapi.asp?command=setPlayerCmd:vol:1' + +show volume: +curl 'http://192.168.1.67/httpapi.asp?command=setPlayerCmd:Vol--' + +but I'd like to reduce the volume even more. Is there any way to reduce the volume, e.g. with a special API command that lowers the amplification in the MV8064 chip to e.g. 20 or 30% or by changing a resistor on the mainboard that will lower the amplification? It would be great if there is an option to reduce the "master" volume to use the full volume control slider in the 4stream app / range 1-100 via API. Currently 10 is already very loud and it's difficult to set 1 via app. This might also help other customers to adjust the volume with different speakers in a multiroom setup so that the volume is on the same level with the same value for volume control. + +Kind Regards, +Jan + + +ANSWER: +Hi , dear sir .
