'Volume' is an object word, not an evaluative one, and as such it doesn't specifically have an antonym. As a rule, words that can be used as subjects or objects of sentences do not have opposites, but merely a list of things that are *not* that object. words that are used to evaluate objects, however, often do have antonyms. For instance the word 'speed' is an object - you can use it in a sentence like 'Speed is restricted to 55 mph', where it has no real antonym. The related word 'fast', by contrast' is an evaluation and clearly has the antonym 'slow'. In this case, 'Volume' has no antonym. 'Voluminous' (large in area/volume) has the antonyms 'sparse' or 'tight' depending on context; 'Loud' (large in sound volume) has the antonym 'quiet'.
