Hi All,

I have a set of DSP5200SL connected to Sonos and a TV using a 218 and controlled with an MSR.

I love the sound but I am struggling with the volume control as I seem to have to have it at 70% or more to be able to listen. There is very little sound at volume of less than 50% but when I increase the volume it seems to step up very quickly from 70-85.

Have I got something wrong in the settings? I would have hoped to be able to increase the volume more gradually.

Secondly I have my TV connected by optical, when I last used this about 6 months ago It worked well but I got frustrated as I could only adjust the volume using the MSR. I have reconnected and only get the sound on one channel? Both channels work via Sonos and there is only a single optical connection to the TV so can't understand what I am doing wrong.

Any suggestions would be very welcome.
