If you are half decent with a soldering iron, you can modify your volume pot circuit as shown in the folling link:

Hi Panu - the problem is that your source has a gain that is too high to allow you to have fine control of your volume. The easiest solution is to get a pair of in-line RCA attenuators ( assuming your cd player does not have a volume control). Rothwells seem to be a popular choice. Good Luck!
