Thanks. That fixed it but still odd that the amp would disappear like that while still working ok otherwise. But I figured out long ago that we are here for the computers and not the other way around. 😉

Hadn't thought about this since I generally don't control my Vibelink with my phone, but I just checked and my VL amp is also missing from my WiiM app. Odd, since it used to show up with no effort on my part.

Thanks! I hadn't noticed that. Since I don't use the volume knob I had no reason to go looking for it. However, congrats again to WiiM for listening to those who wanted this improvement.

My app only shows that adjustment for the remote (which I have set at 2.) I thought we were talking about the physicl volume knob on the Ultra itself. Is there an adjustment for that?

I agree the volume knob on the Ultra is oddly configured and I don't understand why they thought this setup was a good idea. But, that said, I'm like many others -- I don't use it. I tried the knob out when I first got the Ultra to see what it did, but since then 100% of playback volume control...

Which version of Qobuz Connect are you using? (Click on the Settings cog and then select Help/Contact. Mine shows 9.0.0.2 but I have an Android phone.)

Have you thought about posting about this on the Qobuz Club forum?

Another possibility concerning the lack of a phono input is that circuit requires an extra 40 dB or more of gain since the output of phono cartridges is in the millivolt range. That makes them very susceptible to noise and the added amp circuit may add to that problem. (By analogy, a few years...

I remain skeptical of those asking WiiM to bring out high-end products. Much of that segment is more impressed by name and exclusivity. Any hint of being consumer goods runs off a lot of those buyers. For anyone using an expensive high-end DAC in a fancy system and is willing to lower...

Seems if the gap problem was at the Wiim end of things it would affect all music played through the devices with any program. I have a number of gapless albums on my local server that I created. I have zero problem playing them gapless whether using the Wiim App or LMS. However, since they are...

I've got the Android Q Connect version on my phone. It most often starts with the phone as player, especially if there has been any period of time between sessions.

Good point. However, that isn't a habit that I've ever formed for managing my music playback. As someone else noted, Qobuz Connect is simply Spotify Connect for Qobuz, and I've never used Spotify. Therefore, I have a lot of old habits that I'm very comfortable with that make Connect a bit more...

OK, I'll buy that. Catch is I've never used Spotify so Qobuz's copying of that doesn't do anything for me. ;)

One more comment -- after using Connect for a couple of days, I think the oddest deficiency is the extra step needed to reach the volume slider. The screen that shows the album cover lets you play/pause and go forward/back or even adjust where you are in a track, but you can't adjust the volume...

An update -- just noticed that Play Store just updated my Android phone from Qobuz Connect v. 9.0.0.0 to v. 9.0.0.1. This happened this evening. I'd withdrawn from the beta test option yesterday.
