Ugh, the reviewer said the WiiM has a "Brown Burr" DAC, maybe that's why his channel is called Forever Analog.
He did mention bit depth and sample rate - it appears the Arylic is just CD spec. That is probably a deal killer for many on this forum, but as I mentioned before, my hearing is shot, and I can't hear any differences above CD's 16 bit 44k. My receiver will take 24/96 on the HDMI ports, it doesn't specifically say on the optical port.
The Arylic S10+ (the "plus" being the difference) does have a digital out, optical no less. That was a requirement for me. I would've settled for copper, as my receiver has both for inputs. Over short distances, there should be no differences (that I can hear, unless some circuit consideration was really mis-designed).
So, I bought the S10+ from Amazon just now, it'll arrive after Christmas. I'll post a quick review here. Due to my hearing, I probably won't insult you guys with sound quality stuff (unless something is goofy), just installation and easy of use - and does it do what I want.
Thanks for the input!
