WiiM Amp USB Input & AutoSwitch

[Witterings]

I just wanted to check the WiiM Amp's USB is an input that'll work with a PC's USB and also if I can use the auto input sensing to auto switch between streamng and the USB and if the volume can be controlled from the sound settings on the PC.

My current set up has just broken, I was using a WiiM mini into an interface via along with my PC in via USB, the interface's software meant I could create a mix so whichever was playing sound it'd go straight to the amp without me needing to find a remote or switch inputs.

Bit off the wall question ... if anyone has any idea how it'd sound compared to an SMSL AO 200 Amp as I'd sell that to partially fund the WiiM Amp, the alternative is buy another interface and stay with my current setup.

Any input much appreciated!

No, the usb on WiiM devices is for usb media support and usb audio out. It can’t be used as usb audio in from an external device like a pc

Do you happen to know if the Ultra is the same as this could be an alternative with my exisiting amp if not? Although I think I know what the answer probably is.

It's the same, not a usb audio input.

It’s the same that’s why I said WiiM devices and simply not the Amp.
