Post 7 in this thread is what @QuarryHunslet may be referring to https://forum.wiimhome.com/threads/bit-depth-always-16bit-optical-hdmi.6933/

what is the audio source and what software are you using to manage playback ? send a ticket to Wiim if its the Wiim home app

Hi, can you confirm the target devices that are working for you ? Like others I have had mixed results Thanks

If your IKEA turntable is this one Then it does have a preamp and you cannot switch it off so you are feeding line level audio into the phono input which is why it sounds “funky” As per the previous posts you need to connect to the turntable to the line in RCAs on the Ultra A Cubilux adaptor...

I believe @d6jg has experience with using Icecast to stream over a local network. <aybe not this particular use case but similar

AFAIK windows does not support sending audio to a networked device as an identified audio output without 3rd party software being used (ignoring Bluetooth) so you can’t set it as a default. You need to physically connect a Wiim to the PC. Direct analogue or via a USB DAC and then analogue to the...

Just to throw another solution into the mix.... I occasionally use a Fiio BTR13 Bluetooth paired to my Pro and wired headphones plugged into the BTR13. https://www.fiio.com/btr13 I have never had any significant problems and you can use your fav wired headphones over Bluetooth There are a...

SBC can be more prone to interference than AAC but I don't think there is a way to force a Wiim to connect using AAC ?

I said LDAC may not be relevant Sony WH-CH720N headphones support SBC and AAC

This is an interesting idea. The initial Bluetooth handshake and negotiation between devices shares supported codec information with the other device. Wiim devices support only SBC and AAC so LDAC may not be the most relevant but forcing either SBC or AAC as the only codec to use and seeing...

You might also be able to do something with access control lists (ACLs) on your router to limit access to the Wiim from only specific IP addresses or MAC addresses but it’s probably easier to just unplug the drive.

Would you not be better controlling access to your network rather than to an individual device ? E.g set up a guest network for your occasional visitors/users

Newer versions of Bluetooth should be backwards compatible if the device/chip manufacturer has implemennted the standard correctly. A Bluetooth connection will in effect be at a the lowest specification standard of the devices connecting regardless of codec. Note that the Bluetooth specification...

Then buy something similar but for 110v/220-240v

You could try somethlng like this in the interim Sonoff
