Avantgarde Trios too loud with my amps

I just bought a pair of Avantgarde Acoustic Trio speakers and run them on BAT VK-5i and BAT VK-60 monos!
The problem: They are still too loud at the lowest volume setting on my tube amps and listening to music at night is almost impossible since my kids are asleep.
I have my phono preamp under control since it allows me to change the output, but listen to my digital source ( ML 31.5 - 30.5 combo) is definitely too loud!

Does it mean I have to go and buy another preamp?
any other ideas are highly appreciated!

many thanks,

Mckorzi,

I used to run my uno's with my pass labs x350.5 and found the same issue.I had Albert at spacetech labs build me a gain attenuator for the amp. It has a fully adjustable knob. I have since changed to Tact equipment and not using the attenuator. If you are interested in it you can contact me.

Thx.
