| AVA Vision Set 400 v Belles SA-100 I wish that was true, turning the gain all the way down I can only use 15-20% of the volume knob. Also the gain only can be turned down on the 300B output. | |

| QLN Speakers anyone Give them time, if I wasn’t so happy with my Graham Audio speakers, I would definitely buy me some QLN, had the old signature speakers for many years, lovely sound. | |

| Setting up a Mac mini as a music server, and other digital music questions I think using a Mac Mini is fine, especially if only using for music playback, get one of these https://intona.eu/en/products/ between Mini and dac and you be fine, later you could always update to something else if need be. |
