BTW, what's Linkplay MRM? Is it an app or the multiroom feature in WiiM Pro? I'm astounded at the amazing quality of those WiiM Pros. I cannot believe that people are paying 2-3 times as much for other brands. We should setup a website offering installation services by area. A lot of non geeks...

I found the solution! The latest version of Google Home changes completely how you create speaker groups. If you search online on how to do this, you won't get the right procedure or screenshots. It seems like Google updates its apps faster than its documentation online. There is no more +...

I was unable to use Youtube Music Premium to cast to a multiroom setup (with 3 X Wiim Pros). I'm able to cast to one room. Then I use the sync feature to sync to all other rooms from the wiim app, but there isn't any sound coming out in the other rooms. But from Spotify native to the WiiM app...

I received my Wiim Pros and setup three zones. It works with Spotify but not with Youtube Premium: with Spotify from the Wiim app I can play music to all three zones. With YTP I'm only able to cast from YouTube to one room at a time. When I go to the Wiim app, if I sync to the other zones (like...

No worry at all. We're having a friendly discussion and I love this community I just found. All good. I will definitely give Roon a try. You convinced me with your comment on how it sorted your collection. When they say "the Roon Core" (just watched their intro video) is it an actual device...

I'm thinking of switching to Tidal or Quobuz for lossless quality. I love my music library but it's not convenient. I used to have time to research new artists by reading underground magazines, blogs, by using Soulseek and speaking with other users in that awesome community. Now I use the...

I spent more than 25 hours researching a solution. I'm doing all of this for a friend. He rented me his country house by the lake for two weeks and I wanted to offer him a gift for his generous offer. His multiroom setup here was horrible. He had a Russoujd 4 zones switcher without sound control...

Room looks awesome. I have a huge music collection, amassed over 30 years. Thousands of albums, tons of gigabyte of music all tagged by style, genre, situation. A monk's work. Then I stopped doing that and simplified my life with YouTube Music and Spotify. It's not as good as the FLAC tracks I...

No, a TV is not necessary. I use a Chromecast TV on an amp in another home solely for audio. No need for a TV. The HDMI cable will use more bandwidth but it's not important.

You are correct that they don't. And that's my mistake. Had I known that Chromecast TV was a cheaper solution than the WiiM I would have searched for amps with HDMI inputs. But they might have been more expensive so in the end the 3xWiiMs I ordered + those basic amps will end up being a good...

Yes but my question is why do we need the WiiM devices in the first place? Why can't we just connect one Chromecast TV per amp and do multiroom with only amps and Chromecast devices?

I use YouTube Premium and Spotify. With YTP I could work with only Chromecast TV units connected to 3 amp's HDMI inputs. I'm not sure what gapless playback means exactly. I'm surprised to realize that WiiM doesn't make it easy to pre configure room combinations. I envision a visual interface...

Hi all, I'm new to WiiM so this question might be plain wrong but here goes: - I'm setting up a 3 zone multiroom setup - I bought one amp per zone - and will connect one WiiM Pro per amp What will this setup give me more than if I had connected one Chromecast (the new ones with the remote) to...

Thank you. I do pay for YouTube Premium. I'm curious: how did you get your hands on a WiiM Pro Plus? Isn't it coming out only on August 5th?
