    Not really as actual db depends on speaker sensitivity and if the system was calibrated. In a stereo amp it won't be, so the VU meters are purely cosmetic. If it has watts output that gives a rough idea how many watts is being put out, The bottom part has watts output into 8ohm

    yeah PP is a lot better. Wiims also support softsqueeze so if you install LMS on your PC/NAS/PI then you can control the Wiims from Material skin app and use the superior LMS music scanner over stock DNLA service

    Ban. Just use a streamer. Phone is ok for secondary source, casting youtube etc, but primary use? Nope. I use audio streamers in each room, it's great, control it from one app, and no drop in in SQ over BT etc. Coaxial into DAC.

    Connecting my TV to bookshelf speakers - I'm out of touch

    Once you add DAC, HDMI etc you're not looking at a cheap, dime a dozen, regular stereo integrated.

    I recently watched that movie on the kodi box. No problem at all. Also H265 4K HDR. Also some unusual japapense amime, that have unusual resolution and audio/video codec, no problem.

    Yes wiim pro plus is just a streamer, you'll need an amp. Unless you get Wiim amp that is streamer and amp in one.

    Just buy a amlogic box they're so cheap. 2GB model is plenty. I don't what are the latest boxes that are supported. Ideally want one with good stock remote control as those are the weakest part low power IR blaster

    I don't know about those firesticks - if you can do that? But on generic android chinese boxes you can, just boot off microsd card. Remove SD card, and goes back to android. Non destructrive. Basically like a raspberry pi.

    Kodi on 4k Fire Stick Max

    Can you install coreelec? I have zero problems with my AMlogic 905x3 box with coreeleac. Definitely better than kodi ontop of android, better picture quality, no android settings to need messing around with, less resources, better video/audio codec support, proper native framerate, and likely...

    Connecting my TV to bookshelf speakers - I'm out of touch

    Analogue inputs will be digited so kinda defeating point of high quality analogue sources. It'll do in a pinch, but if you know about that and analogue inputs are priority I'd look elseware. This is more of a digital input amp.

    Connecting my TV to bookshelf speakers - I'm out of touch

    Does your record player have phono stage built in, or does it require off board phono pre amp? You'll be looking for stereo integrated amplifier with Analogue input Possibly phono stage (optional) - if not use external HDMI ARC input So basically a stereo integrated, DAC For £200. Nah...
