good evening, im dave, im a big lad hence the name, hope someone can answer my questions as garmin support ....well isnt very supportive for my ancient 590 LM

my 590 has just started to play up ( im thinking since its last update) voice command and speed camera warnings are very quiet, i cant hear a thing over 40 mph, whilst music is still really loud, ive adjusted the volumes in the menu to 100% and turned down music to 30% so i can turn up the volume on my cardo to maximum to no avail, ive tried to seek help from garmin but they dont support the 590 any more apart from self help and this subject wasnt asked

Greetings Dave. Welcome to the forum. I don't know anything about the 590 LM, I use an XT which has a volume mixer which allows for setting a different volume for Navigation, Media, Phone Calls, and Proximity Alerts. Confirm that the 590 does not have the same. Regarding the Cardo, I use a Cardo Packtalk Bold headset and know that its volume control is specific to the source of the sound. If it is from a source other than the 590 by sure to turn it off and then adjust the volume on the Cardo while voice commands are being played by the 590.

the 590 does indeed have individual mixers, the volumes of the alerts and navigation are set at 100% and are very quiet ive turned down the music volume to 30% so i can have my cardo packtalk at max to help hear them without being blasted by the music

ive used my zumo for thousands and thousands of miles and this has just happened, id rather listen to directions rather than look at the sat nav only glancing at it occasionally , better to keep your eyes on the road

Welcome to the forum, Dave.
