- Increased control range from -99 dB to 0 dB
- Added a "DIM" control. This is like mute but it goes to -80 dB instead of total mute, and when you "undim", it goes back the the original volume. You can "undim with the same dim button and also with the volume control buttons
- The 4 buttons are now functional: right for "DIM", left for Filter, top for up volume and bottom for down volume. Sort of intuitive

It turns out -63 dB is plenty loud with the DAC connected directly to the amplifier. So in this iteration:
