Its not only me ,even the BBC have commented on the low volume, no other label that I know of has this annoying nuisance of continually having to adjust volume I shall do my best to avoid BIS recordings in the future.

You do not have to adjust the volume at all, if you set it properly to begin with.
You just want to do so.
You often comment on how good your audio system is......
If it is really as good as you suggest, then you should be able to just set the volume properly at the beginning of the disc and let it be.
You can avoid Bis all you want. It is you that will be missing something, not Bis.
What, it's annoying and an inconvenience to turn up the volume control? Also, stay away fro Praga Digitals and others because you will only be annoyed at having to turn the volume down. But, God gave us volume controls for a reason that seems to have escaped you.
I don't have this issue with my Praga Digitals, and to those who are not pleased with the quality of their BIS SACD's all I can say is I sure love mine.
To each each own. I love Praga recordings, I never found a modern BIS SACD that blows me away.
Maybe I am old fashioned but some of the early BIS RBCD's still sound better than the modern SACD's recordings.
My BIS reference is still the old "4 seasons" recorded by Robert himself.
These where the good old days. No volume control problems at all.
The only thing that blows me away is the wind.
And I don't mean all the hot air that passes on audio forums, but the actual wind.
The "blows me away" phrase is just one of those trite overused audio phrases that says absolutely nothing.
You don't like "Blow me away" so OK I'll use another term such as "Knocked my socks off"

I tend to not like any of the audiophile terms as they are essentially meaningless, though the users of such tend to think the terms are very much spot on and all the other users of such tend to nod in agreement.
Very transparent of you.
