    Default turn it down!

    I wish it was easier to control the volume on the the RX65. A little volume wheel on the side would be perfect. The current control is awkward.

    If it is anyting like the old Bel's, it may seem cumbersome, but I just put it at level #1, it still is loud, I admit that.

    I don't mind it loud but... when my wife is in the car she eyeball's me until I turn it down.

    The muting button on the smart cord also acts as a volume control.

    Although the rx65 should still have that partial mute feature (where it mutes the sound down to a small clicking sound) unfortunatly for Tomoc and others the rx65 no longer has city mode that fully mutes the alert and just shows the visual alert (it does chirp once at the begining) lie the older Bel v985. Wonder if the STi has it, I know Bel put K band filtering back into the STi city mode.

    The button volume control on the RX-65 sucks IMHO. I like the "real" volume control knob on the X50.

    The STi has an automute feature where the volume reduces quite a bit, it's great, it doesn't get on your nerves that way
