But… that’s probably a personality question.

They designed the speakers like a cooking stove. Turn the gas to the min to stop it. That's fine for cooking, but not for gaming. I think 40 eur is rather expensive... They should have a better design. Even 10 eur "noname-made-in-china" speakers have on/off buttons. Oh, and no "tone" buttonthing :)) Yes you are right.

Who wants to play games which reset your configuration each time you quit? That would be a bug. I’m wondering where this awkward functional design has its roots.
