Yes, you can EQ the optical in. I'm using coax out, but I'd have to assume it would apply for optical and analog output as well.

Yes, and the Pro has the option to auto sense the optical (or analog) input and switch inputs as long as the device is idle. Convenient if connecting to a TV. Turning on the TV takes the Pro out of standby and sends a 12V signal. The amp I have connected to the 12V only gets triggered on and...

Bypassing the WiiM and connecting to my DAC via Bluetooth. LDAC and FLAC have similar max bitrates, so it's close enough to bit perfect for me. For my use, this is all much less about the numbers than the quality and ease of the listening experience.

I figure if plastic is good enough for Blue Jeans Cables, it's good enough for me.

Alexa cast in the Amazon app plays gaplessly (but oddly doesn't show the quality like it does with Chromecast/Bluetooth/USB playback). But no Alexa cast support for Plexamp or Deezer. Plex/Plexamp support is really my biggest need. I'd like to ditch Amazon/Deezer and go entirely...

Nope, just checked with Deezer as well and neither are gapless. From what I can tell, it's a limitation on Google's end. Chromecast audio only supports gapless playback from native Google media sources ( Google Home app/Android's built-in cast screen/audio). I have the new Chromecast with Google...

I've been using the WiiM Pro and its app for about a month now and I wanted to share some thoughts. I'm running my TV into the WiiM Pro and then coax out to a miniDSP Flex running as a sort of separates AV processor. As the Flex is running as my DAC, I can't comment on the Pro's onboard DAC, but...

Have you tried Android emulation? I was able to download the WiiM Home app with BlueStacks 5 but couldn't get it to launch. Someone on a BlueStacks forum/subreddit may be able to help get it running.

Worth noting that the 12V trigger is 2.5mm. My trigger chain only uses 3.5mm, guess I'll have to wait a few more days for a 2.5mm adapter to get here so I can power my amp and sub with the Pro.
