wattage is a term that gets abused by marketing. A good amp provides strong current.
the best analogy I have heard is that if you imagine power as water running through a hose, wattage is the rate at which water goes through the hose and current is the size of the hose.
Not sure if that analogy is 100% apt but it gives you a good picture of how wattage can be misleading.
Here's a good explanation from Paul McGowan of PS Audio on the topic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfNoGVa

I just don't see much point in this unless the music you like isn't available via MQA on Tidal.

1. How do you hook it up so you can watch TV as well as listen to music without the TV on?
2. How do you set it up so you can play music on it without degrading the quality via bluetooth? i.e. stream music via tidal/spotify. I have no records or CDs and don't want to own them.
3. Are there amplifier/DACs that allow remote playback adjustment via iOS or Android apps (again without losing fidelity via bluetooth signal compression)?
3. Is there a way to remotely adjust volume on a same smartphone ?
