I believe that's the way it's designed to work. If I start a music stream in the Amazon Music App, it plays on my iPhone. I then have to select what Echo devices (including WiiM Amp) I want it to play on by using the cast icon. Edit to add that I have auto connect enabled.

This has been working great for me for a couple of years now. I use it on a Paradigm powered sub that the amp smoked, and it has plenty of power. Not sure of the model, but it has one active speaker and two passives in the sub box. 8" I believe. Amp sets on top of the sub with outputs wired...

When I ask Amazon Music Unlimited to play a song via voice to an Echo or the Amazon Music app, the first song won't play on the Amp. It plays on all other devices. If I use the A.M. app and skip to the next song the Amp will power up and begin to play. This only happens using Multi-Room Music...

Lots of good information, thanks for sharing. Reminds me of a question on multi-room music volume control. When I attempt to adjust one speaker, as in this picture, several other sliders may (or may not) move at the same time (up or down). I also see the speaker's name change while in the midst...

I tried it today and it works with my 20 year old original iPod. WiiM Amp even shows album art for some. There's a bit of a delay from the time I select the song before it begins to play, but I would guess that the Amp is downloading the song before it begins. It was a fun experiment, but the...

That was the factory "demo" version I bought from local Hi-Fi store. I like it because they made it clear to show off the internal workings. I don't really need it much with the Thiels, but it does add a nice feel to the sound.

Replaced multiple components with a single WiiM Amp. Drives my vintage Thiel 3.5's with ease and sounds very good in an extra-large room with 20' ceilings. Just a little tweak with the PEQ makes a significant difference. Very happy with the WiiM home app too. Makes it a joy to pick music and...

The last update appeared to be frozen for me as well, but I left it and the update completed. It stayed on downloading for an extended period.

I believe you can just remove the old device from the speaker group to accomplish what you want. I've moved devices around before and rename them in the beginning of the process. "Echo Old" would be the old one and "Echo New" is the one being swapped in. Then I delete the old one from the...

Yeah, the WiiM Amp isn't really a receiver (in my mind anyway) that passes through audio/video. Basically, the WiiM Amp is a replacement for amp and pre-amp separates. It takes inputs from Streaming, HDMI, Optical, etc. and outputs them to the speakers.

The Amp is audio only, so you can switch to another audio input on the Amp and the TV will continue to play as a TV and your sound will come from whatever source you pick.

We received different updates on the Amp. I noticed you were looking for some specific resolutions, so I guess they can update individual devices as needed?

In that case, I'm surprised I ever get an update. :)

My WiiM Amp just updated to 5.0.609856

When I first received mine in December, I thought it sounded decent, but I described it as vailed, like a sheer curtain in front of the speakers. I'm using large Thiel 3.5 speakers. I made some adjustments to the pEQ settings (very small actually) and it made a significant difference for me...

Similar form factor is fine, or an additional box would do too. I'm most interested in simplicity and control by Wiim Home App.

I've mentioned it before, but will bring it up again, I would like to see 5.1 channel surround sound WiiM Amp. Think how nice it would be to have the user interface in the WiiM Home App and hardware form factor similar to the WiiM Amp.

So, can take from this that I can connect my iPod classic (the one with the hard drive) to the USB port on the Amp? That would be fun to go back in the music archives and listen to things I've forgotten.

Previous update I said not now and later I went back later, and it had installed. Looks like it can install in standby or at any time. ;)

Here's something to think about... you mention you have nine Echo devices. If they are all in your MRM group and you're adding the WiiM as number ten, you might have reached to MRM music device limit of nine. Not sure why it would behave the way your setup is, but for me when I try to add more...
