Oppo 105D digital volume question

Want to try running the Ayre Codex DAC, balanced, directly into the PS Audio S300 amp. The Ayre has no remote, so I would like to use the Oppo digital volume control. It doesn't seem to change the volume when hooked to the Ayre. Am I missing some menu setting to make this possible?

Thanks,

Access the oppos setup menu via a screen. See what the startup volume is as well as the max volume. I'm running mine into a Schitt Gungnir, but then also into an integrated. Neither your Ayre nor your ps audio have any pots so the oppo has to serve as a pre-amp of sorts.

@designsfx but if you use the Codex as a DAC (rather than a headphone amp) doesnt it negates the volume feature?

Oh, And I retract my earlier statement that the ayre didn’t have a potentiometer
