If you examine the behaviour of a competitor unit like Yamaha WXC-50 you will see how this is implemented perfectly:ġ) standby button (on/off) on app turns unit in/out of standby, ie OFF = front panel status light goes red and 12v trigger output turns off (hence turns off power amplifiers/active speakers downstream), ON=standby light green/white, trigger output turns ONĢ) in absence of an audio input signal (eg after TV is turned off which removes spdif signal to wiim pro) unit enters auto standbyģ) dedicate one of the front panel buttons to the standby on/off function (to enable the unit to be turned on/off without having to open the app) with all respect, I think you are missing the whole point of users wanting a standby function - that is, to enable useful slave control over other equipment (eg power amplifiers or active speakers) that are connected to the wiim pro. Really pleased so far, excited to see what improvements are in store.Ĭlick to expand.Thanks for the reply. If gapless casting worked from the Plexamp or Amazon Music app I'd likely have ditched the WiiM app already. Everything above makes the convenience of the WiiM integrations less appealing than simply casting from the more polished dedicated apps. The app, on the other hand, needs some work. But, unless you need a Roon ready device today or you're really into the look of large metal audio gear, I can't imagine too many use cases for a $1000 NAD or Cambridge streamer over the WiiM Pro. This is my first streamer, so I can't really compare it to anything else. It would be nice if there was a way to start that chain without playing a song and missing the beginning while everything warms up. The 12v trigger goes from my WiiM Pro, to my amp and subwoofer. A trigger button on the app's homescreen would be cool. A three way switch in settings to decide if we want to use it for network status, standby status, or just always off. An option to choose standby light function. Looks like this has been discussed extensively elsewhere on the forum, but +1 for better Plex integration. Deezer results seem to be more consistent than Amazon Music. Have to search, open keyboard, then search again to get most/all results to show. Search occassionally fails to communicate with streaming services, returning incomplete or no results. Sometimes previous search text is still in the box and I have to clear it before the keyboard will appear. I have to tap the box multiple times to get the keyboard to popup (this seems to be part of a larger responsiveness issue).
This is especially annoying when I'm using Home Music Share to listen to music from my Plex server as the Artist folder is 5 folders deep. The app becomes unresponsive and needs to be closed and restarted. I'll start some music, lock my phone or switch to a different app, and when I return to the WiiM app there's a spinning loading wheel in the middle of the screen that never loads. The app has issues recovering from standby. The on screen buttons work, but I find myself closing the app more often than I remember to tap the back button. It works as intended in some menus and returns to the previous, but most of the time it brings up a prompt to exit the app. The back gesture is extremely inconsistent. With lots of devices and music services, I could see a single settings menu getting cluttered, but there has to be a better implementation/explanation for settings being buried in three separate menus. Or to change per-service settings, go to Browse and select the integration under "Music services". To access actual settings, you have to go to Device and tap the settings cog to bring up per-device settings. Settings contains no settings, just the app version and some useful links.

For reference, I'm using version 2.16 of the WiiM Home app on a Pixel 7 running Android 13 with Deezer, Amazon Music, and a Plex server connected. And I'd like to see some mention on the website/Amazon listing that the 12V trigger is 2.5mm. Looks clean, but some heavy duty connectors don't fit. I'm not a fan of the recessed connections.
It looks nice next to the rest of my gear and I don't have any issues with the plastic shell at this price point. Haven't had any issues with WIFI to coax or toslink to coax digital passthrough to my DAC. As the Flex is running as my DAC, I can't comment on the Pro's onboard DAC, but from what I've read it's fine.

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. I've been using the WiiM Pro and its app for about a month now and I wanted to share some thoughts.
