Ladies, gents, and all yall nonbinaries. I present the volume knob mod.
A bit of sticky rubber stuff leftover from some 3m rubber feet. Cut up and used so you can control the volume infinitely with one finger.
The rubber feet came in a square piece of rubber with the round feet bits punched out. I just used a bit of the excess and viola!
Ive been using this since close to day 1 and just realised I should share. The rubber feet are about 1inch to give you a sense of scale.
One of those small tweaks that make for a massive quality of life differences. Adjusting volume and navigating the menu is nowhere near as much of a chore.
Funny, I knew exactly what this was as soon as I saw it. I'm well versed in those little rubber feet too, haha. I use the excess rubber for lots of things as well, it's nice and grippy.
Though, I don't have a problem with spinning the knob, i just run my finger around the outside to turn it rapidly. I find turning up or down volume just fine this way unlike the initial complaints of it being too slow.
I too hear the faint "pops", depending on what I'm listening to. Just figure it's a part of digital volume control. Doesnt bother me tho
