Any idea if when you adjust the volume is it increases the volume level on the optical out?
My sub has a built-in crossover, and high and low inputs. (speaker and line) I suppose I could use the RCA out to it.
EDIT: Update to note I have a powered sub. ( https://www.polkaudio.c
I have no idea how to hook up speakers and a sub to my pc.

So I'm curious, should I use the optical output of my Chromecast audio into this device, or just use the apt-x HD? Is there a way to use Chromecast audio from my laptop, other than through the chrome browser?
It's Bluetooth, it's compatible

Not sure what you are asking. If you are asking can you play music to the Airpods from this, the answer is no.
This is a Bluetooth receiver, not a transmitter.
I have no idea how to hook up speakers and a sub to my pc.
I'm doing this exactly, bought it a month ago to replace a T2020 basic amp. Powering two passive satellites (Logitech Z-5500, 67W each) and then the RCA out to an older Paradigm 12" 500W active subwoofer that I bought used. Ideally your subwoofer has an adjustable crossover so you can blend to your towers/satellites.
I am only using the analog or BT into this setup (optical output from PC is used for headphone DAC) but I have no hiss/noise issues.
It has been a great setup with amazing range and volume for cheap. Amp $40, Z-5500 satellites $5, sub $40, cables $15.

He does not need a receiver. This device has a built in amp.
He just looks at what his passive speaker is rated to and decides if this 50W per channel is a good fit for him. You can always under drive the speaker or over drive them and just keep the volume lower to be safe.
