Increasing volume


Hi all
I have an Octave HP700 with the phono stage module & a Lyra Skala. The gain in the phono module is on the low setting & the recommended load according to Lyra is 95.3ohm...I have it set at 97.

I want to drive the pre a bit more but it's quite loud at  the 10 o'clock position. 
Am I doing something wrong?
Any suggestions on how I can drive my pre a bit more...?

Thanks

Did you contact Octave? You have too much gain. What power amp are you using? What speakers are you using? Did you always have this problem?

@yogiboy  not spoken to Octave yet...I'll speak to my dealer later.

My amps are W4S SX-1000R monos & my speakers are Audio Physic Avantera III.

I did incur the problem before but altered the gain setting in the phono module.& it seemed fine.

I have recently introduced a new tonearm cable but surely that wouldn't be the cause ...??
