Have you figured out a way to bring the Marantz out of standby with input from the Mini? My setup is like yours but I also use Alexa MRM. Only part I'm missing is getting the AVR to power up automatically.

It has a seperate remote but it controls the TV volume. I'll check again, but I don't recall seeing anything for volume on the box.

It runs from an app on the TV. It came with it and many more, so I guess that counts as Natively?

Thanks, I'll check to see if I can find something along the lines of Auto Volume.

I probably didn't title this correctly but what I'm trying to understand is why the volume level is higher on YouTube music (for example) compared to listening to DirecTV. DirecTV box connects to TV with HDMI. LG TV connected via HDMI to WiM Amp Ultra. I can't use the per source option since the...

Check out Lips Against the Steel. One of my favorites.

Update: I had a chance to try linking my wifes YouTube account to WiiM Home on my iPhone. This time it went through without a problem. I didn't do anything differently, but I will add that we setup a couple of TV's with her subscription since my first attempt with WiiM. Her account in YouTube...

I went through the process of trying to add YouTube as one of the music services. I tried using my basic YouTube account but failed since I don't have Premium. I tried using my wife's premium account but it gave an error, something to the effect of "not enough arguments". I believe because...

How do I go about getting her YouTube to be available in my WiiM account? I tried logging in to her YouTube from my WiiM account and it came up with an error of not enough arguments (or something similar). I'm guessing it won't let me use her account. I don't want to setup another WiiM Home...

Yes, I'm still playing around with trying to get the Cinema 60 to be a part of MRM speaker group. I keep hoping you guys with all the knowledge and experience will show me the way. :) It's not like it's a big deal to have to turn on the Marantz and switch the input, it's more that I've become...

I'm putting this in the Alexa thread because my goal is to have my Marantz Cinema 60 play in MRM. I can see the AVR in the Alexa app but can't add it to any speaker groups. It says not compatible. Currently I have a Echo device as input to the AVR and it will play in MRM but I have to turn on...

Trust me, that feeling will pass. :)

I swapped the WiiM Amp for the Ultra and I could tell an improvement in sound quality. Plus I took the Amp and connected it to two sets of outdoor speakers, which was a very noticeable improvement in sound quality over my Fosi Amps and Echo device.

Unpacking: Box in a box in a box and very heavy. Open two boxes and lay on side so can pull the WiiM box out to open. Take sub out of box using the large sock it's packed in. (this was just a joke post) Not much to the unpacking.

Arrived a day early. I have it setup and working already. I'm not an audiophile any more but will say the sub is working as expected. I paired it up with my Thiel's and Amp Ultra. It feels like a good match. It aesthetically goes better in the room than my Velodyne did, plus I was able to move...
