We will likely have $99 for AllPlay only, and $149 for AllPlay + AirPlay.

will the airplay implementation have the volume control from the mac/ios device ? (that's for me , one of the MAJOR  advantage of airplay over bluetooth)

yes, the vol control should be on the App.

I added a comparison at the bottom of the page to explain why you should buy WR-100 instead of Chromecast Audio.

To add Airplay and bluetooth, it is more complicated and required a new DAC chip too. We can't use Qualcomm module anymore.
Therefore the model that includes AirPlay and BT will be priced at $199, may be even $249.

dumb question but how is the wifi module connected to the amp ? i thought it was connected via USB letting the amp do the DAC function ... like the bluetooth stick provided with the amp.

Adding to John's answer, if you just want to connect to STA-9 to convert your speaker into active WiFi speaker, you will use the 3.5mm analog output from WR-100.

For the cost of a nice dinner, WR-100 is a lot more versatile than $35 Chromecast Audio.

Yes, you can control the volume from the App.
The free app can be used to connect to your local (phone), network (NAS, Media Server such as HD-AVP) or online (Spotify etc) music.
If you have several people in the home who use the same AllPlay app, they can all see what's currently playing and "hijack" the system to play to it.  Or everyone just play to the receiver in their own room.

by the way, i had a broken on arrival unit but i fixed it by myself (after 6 weeks of delivery delay i could not resign myself to sent it back for repair) ... i sent you a private message to explain the problem that can be related to harsh handling during transport but also related to the factory assembly process.

i sooooo loooove this little beast .  i works damn well for an amp of that price/size. gives enough juice to handle speakers in a complete different league in term of size.

best regards

Your IDA-8 AC switched that got moved out of place is due to long vibration from shipping. We now apply glue and screws on the switch assembly (previously it was only snap-on with glue)

If you need actual product support, just create a help desk ticket on mytdss.com
Zoon is a player on the PC or Mac, and I think Zoon has to add AllPlay support to their player.
