Can anyone confirm if the volume limit is a hardware or software implementation? If it is software/firmware only then how does the installer choose/modify firmware accordingly. BTW firmware is extracted into temporary folder during install for any curious people.

Maybe Im just imagining it then... Everything seems louder with the Canadian firmware... Anyone else (within EU model) want to try this?

As far as I am aware the Canadian model does not have volume limiter - just the EU version to adhere to French law. After I installed the Canadian firmware the volume has considerably higher. You would have to do the reverse - install the EU firmware and see if the volume gets quieter

Doh! I'll give you a hint... I don't have volume restrictions on my A608 (EU model) anymore... Read my previous post... and think about it.

I believe the volume is set low due to some silly French law. As far as I know the Canadian model is actually the same as the EU version. I wonder why the Canadian firmware has the message: "NOTE: This utility is only for use with the products identified above and sold in the Canada. Not all models are sold in all countries." Any ideas ?

I have several audio books I wish to play on my A608, however I am getting very frustrasted with Connect player. Regardless of which order I create the files in the playlist they seem to be always rearranged when I copy them onto the A608. This is ok with music but with audio books it is driving me crazy... Any ideas anyone? Thank you.
