This amp is tremendous value and you could build an inexpensive multi-room system by combining in-wall with active speakers using Wiim minis. The following are all double or more but to be fair some have speakers with built-in streaming which is cleaner, and SONOS has room correction software...

Agreed - build a Wiim Amp competitor.

Lot of new products coming from Sonos in 2024: https://appleinsider.com/articles/23/12/03/sonos-plans-wave-of-audio-product-launches-for-2024

From the Episode description: Global Inputs From single source with volume controls to independent sources at each room – or any combination in between – this amplifier has the flexibility you need. Global A/B provides two independent global sources that can be mapped to desired channel pairs –...

Oh nice - with Optical and HDMI ARC!

Wiim mini + FOSI or Aiyima amp for under $200 makes way more sense than this PMA-600NE. FOSI, Wiim and Aiyima, here is your chance to add the other half to make an inexpensive streaming amplifier. Partnership with licensing agreement?

New member here and I’d like to start by saying thank you Amir for all that you do. As impressive as this product is, it does not seem to be a SONOS killer. Although I don’t own the SONOS Amp, I’d be hard-pressed to give up HDMI ARC, a streamer with a wealth of options, TruePlay room...
