    WiiM Pro is a good replacement and support far more protocols in addition to chromecast audio, and much better DACs, but is at a different price point (though a far better value than anything else on the market).

      Do WiiM Pro devices show up as speakers/streamable devices in apps (for casting) or can Google Home see them. Can they be assigned as the default speaker of a google home device?

      I’ve got 11 CCAs in operation right now… That would be a pricey swap. Might be worth buying one and playing around. Also need to see if it supports yt music

        I am an AirPlay user so haven’t tried the google cast. But it separately lists echo speakers and display group, works with google, and google cast as capabilities, so I’m guessing all work. There’s probably a YouTube video showing it somewhere.

          It seems ytm is not supported in the app, but I’m not sure if that’s a problem for my use case or not. If Google home “casts” requests then I think it’ll work for me.

          I sent them a message asking
