I switched over to Amazon Unlimited HD in my condo system a couple of months ago dropping my long held Pandora subscription and more recent Tidal subscription. As a Prime member we shop, watch video and now listen to music via Amazon (going all in with AtoZ is a bit of a concern but that’s another post).
Problem was that my Yamaha WXC-50 still had not updated to carry the Amazon HD platform, I had read that this was coming but still no update. Bluetooth and Airplay were not cutting it for me. Finally ordered the Echo Link after a quick review, it arrived yesterday. Hooked it up after lunch and after some trial and error got it set up and running. Listened for a few hours and report all works well. Hooked it up via coax to my Yamaha AS-301 and all sounds fine. No voice control for us so controlling via the Amazon HD app on my iPad casting by WiFi over to the Link.
If you are on the Amazon platform this is a pretty effective way to connect a system.
