What about having the volume slowly adjust to what it last was when you start the unit? I agree that having the volume blast when you first get into the car because you were out at a club and deaf on the drive home is very annoying for that morning commute! It can eliminate the need for coffee! My old head unit did this, but not slowly enough for me to realize that it was going up and lower it, if needed. So, I've gotten into the habit of turning the volume down as I pull into the driveway, so that it's already down the next time I get in the car. Having the music fade in slowly upon startup would be great!
