Aesthetix Callisto sgn. Volume soft

Hi , I need help I bought a used Callisto sgn. Year 2004 made.
First power up fuse blow, replaced new fuses, volume is so soft, need to pass 3 o,clock plus 3 click. Replace el34 with national electronics said to be nos seimen. Not yet replace the 12ax7 on the PS,
Replaced v1 with amperex nos, v2 with tele nos. Still waiting to order for v3, v4 replacement.
But why is so soft?
My calypso do not have this problem, but I sold it.

This Is this the Callisto line stage I assume?

Is the low volume problem with through a phono, CD input or other source. Additional info might help.

I think you need to send it in and have Aesthetix look at it.

Hi Albert
How are you? Both input cd and phono same soft volume.
I found out today , out put to amps on xlr on one set having problem of distortion, when I changed to the other output no more distortion but still have to turn to 3 o,clock plus 3 to 4 click step.
But now it sounded good and about 80 to 90 db. Just nice volume and I begin to enjoy.
Yes is Callisto sgn. Line stage, with io sgn. Phono.
Perhaps is room size too, I moved to new home, room size is 18 ft wide x 29ft long x 9 ft height.
I am still looking for a good tube mono block amps to replace my krell fpb600. Now I worry I needed a lot power to power my Hansen emperor.
