Reply To: Beolab 50 feature request… (Geoff ??)

I’m the one who should be apologizing and so… my apologies once again for not explaining myself properly. I don’t think I articulated it correctly earlier, so let me recap, hopefully with more clarity:

My BL50 speakers are connected to a third-party audio processor for surround sound, along with other speakers, via an RCA analog input. Since I need to control the volume of all the speakers simultaneously, I must do it through the audio processor. Consequently, I need to set the default starting volume on the BL50s to a value of 90 (maximum). However, when I play audio from a different input source, a digital streamer/transporter connected via SPDIF, the default starting volume remains at 90 (maximum). I wish I had the option to customize that value, for instance, to set it to 40. This customization is crucial because when I switch from RCA to SPDIF, I must ensure that: 1) there is no audio playing from the source already; 2) I remember to lower the volume before hitting play to avoid a sudden blast of sound from the powerful speakers. Additionally, there are instances in which, when playing via SPDIF, the volume resets to its default starting value of 90. This occurs when I change the source input and, in some cases, when I switch from wide to narrow mode (it only happens the first time in a session, which appears to be a software bug).

My main point is that if I could set different default starting volumes for each input, it would significantly improve the transition between RCA and SPDIF in my system.

Thank you so much for your kind replies.
