Hi Jamie, did you ever get a response to the ticket you logged? Many thanks, J.

Disregard, spoke too soon. Another volume blast after pausing the music playing on my iPhone Spotify app (fixed volume output) and later unpausing the music. So we can rule out the COAX vs TOSLINK as the source of the issue, as well as Audio Output Sample Rate Switch Latency, which I have at...

Time has passed, firmware updates have been rolled out, and this problem seems to have been resolved - at least via COAX, which is how the WiiM Pro is now connected to the Majik DSM. I unfortunately never did find the time to go through the methodical testing process I had intended, so I cannot...

New firmware 4.8.517862 (Build 20230523) out that is not yet announced on the Release Notes page https://faq.wiimhome.com/support/solutions/articles/72000587188 Perhaps point 5 addresses the issue.

Just a note to say I have not forgotten about this, simply had unexpected other things to tend to this weekend. I will do the testing at next best opportunity and post results here.

My wife just read this and is rolling with laughter... haha. I feel outed as a nerd... :D

I will make time this weekend to test. This is how I plan to go about it, changing one parameter at a time... or any other suggestions?

Hi, unfortunately I will not be able to try the suggestions out until the weekend due to some other priorities. I will report back here once I have.

Apologies, I missed this earlier. I have only cast Spotify and Amazon Music HD and as far as I remember this behavior has only happened with Spotify. My DSM has the latest firmware 4.99.491. I recall that the DSM firmware 4.97.475 addressed the following issue: "Fixed #8148: Spotify Connect...

Wow - thank you for finding this. I must say I can definitely relate to this statement: "And with my 300 watt speakers this gives a shocking blast that almost kills my speakers (and heart)." So much so that I am nervous to try the aforementioned tests... but I have to and will. Good to know...

Ah! Thanks for the clarification, I had misunderstood. That makes sense; will try that out and report back.

I do and I will, but of course was hoping for the digital bit perfect transport via TOSLINK (or Coax). But yes, it would be interesting to see if there is a similar effect via the analog interconnects. Will give it a go this evening...

Thank you, will give that a try. I've also ordered a Coax cable to see if that might make a difference...

Hi, my WiiM Pro is connected to a Linn Majik DSM /2 (2015 Variant) via the supplied TOSLINK optical cable. When I start Spotify and select the WiiM Pro as the destination, there is a shockingly loud 1 second volume blast, even if the Linn DSM volume is set to 0 (zero). This cannot be good for...
