Dear sir

I use NAD c658 as a preamp to my NAD m22v2 poweramp,

but really afraid turning the  volume too loud to hurt my ears.

Is there any method to limit the maximum volume recently ?

Besides, I found the Optical Input is louder than Tidal.

Will the Input Sensitivity Adjustment add in the future ?

Thank

  Within BluOS you can limit the volume I believe, I can on my Node2, I would imagine C658 would be the same.

  This only affect streaming and would not affect the other inputs to your NAD C658 however.

  Its NOT possible to limit the volume on NAD C658, even its possible on NODE2 and more . Not for BluOS input or other one , which is VERY dangerous . See also other threads here.

  I agree completely , that a volume limiting or at least delay on the volume slider is necessary.

  I use the C658 with the C298 which is able to feed app. 2x 500W into 4 Ohm speakers.

  Once i took the pad for bluos control from the desk and just touched the slider on the 80% position  and was very happy not to destroy my speakers and my ears.

  This is a safety issue for the user and equipment.

  And safety should always come first.
