I like the idea of the Zen One signature as I think it could be an all in one solution. I do have LDAC Bluetooth on my phone (Pixel 6a). I have a Tidal subscription and as it has mqa, I thought the Wiim would be worth it, though, as you say, I'm not sure if I'll really hear enough of a difference. It supports up to 768 kHz PCM, and DSD512, with PCM/DSD automatic switching ideal for the latest high-resolution audio source. Achieve 120 dB (A-wt) SNR, THD+N of -110dB from 44.1k to 192k. Make Your Audio Equipment Smart WiiM Pro Plus will pop up automatically in the WiiM Home app. With the simple in-app guide and compact size, the device can be set up in less than two minutes. Always Getting Smarter Heads up. In November WiiM are releasing the WiiM Amp, essentially a WiiM Pro Plus with amplification. 60w x 2 at 8ohms, 120w x2 at 4 ohms. Will have subwoofer out, HDMI eArc out, and USB drive out.
I listened with the WiiM Pro by streaming from Tidal and mostly using its analog stereo output, but also trying the coaxial digital output to compare its built-in DAC to my integrated amp’s own DAC. All features of the WiiM Pro are controlled through the WiiM Home app. So whether you want to tweak the EQ, set-up a new preset or find your favourite radio station anywhere in the world - everything is made effortlessly simple with WiiM.The hardware of WiiM Pro will be different from Mini. It'll have a quadcore CPU instead of dual core and 512MB DRAM/flash instead of 128MB DRAM/flash compared to the Mini. The application software will be same except for the support of Chromecast audio and additional interfaces. It’ll share the same code base and WiiM Home app as the Mini. We do provide installation options for built-in appliances providing it is simply a case of fitting the appliance and furniture doors. Any additional work to the kitchen units or carpentry work required will need to be completed at the customer’s expense. Hi Lee - great article, but you might want to update it. The WiiM Pro is now Roon Ready - so for those of us into the Roon ecosystem, this is an outstanding way to add another zone at very low cost!

Group WiiM Pro Plus with other AirPlay 2 speakers, Alexa-enabled devices, Google Home devices or any other WiiM streamers to have a multi-room/synchronized audio experience.

The only improvement over the standard Wiim mini from my needs / POV is John’s comment about the Pro being bit-perfect. Nice to know the DAC isn’t messing about by randomly upsampling / down sampling your source material. Should you decide that the WiiM's onboard DAC isn't quite up to the job and prefer to use it simply as a preamplifier or a bridge for other WiiM receivers around your home, the Pro Plus gets completely out of the way of your analogue sources. Feeding my vinyl copy of Billie Eilish's When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? into it via a phono stage and then out again to a power amplifier – leaving the Pro Plus in charge of nothing except volume control – is an interesting test. The recording doesn't change character in the slightest, which is the best you can hope for. Inevitably the A-to-D conversion, wireless transmission and D-to-A conversion that the music undergoes to be streamed to another zone, impacts detail, definition and soundstage depth – yet not catastrophically so. If you want to hear your records all around your home without investing in more than one turntable, you could do much worse. THE VERDICT Analog stereo, coaxial and optical digital outputs; HDMI eARC; 3.5mm analog/optical digital input; subwoofer output And in the past, using several different devices, I’ve found Airplay to be quite glitchy, especially when you have visitors arrive and all their phones try handshaking with your wifi! The very moment you want your system just to quietly behave itself and it stops playing! Output connections include analog stereo and coaxial and optical digital, and there are also analog stereo and coaxial and optical digital inputs for routing external sources through the WiiM Pro. There’s an Ethernet port for a wired network connection and a trigger output that can be used to automatically turn on a connected amp. Analog stereo and optical digital cables are included, along with a USB-C adapter and cable for power.
Experience High-End Sound
What Hi-Fi? said:The incredibly affordable WiiM Pro Plus brings music streaming to the masses, without being massive.
Whereas the Audio Pro has a much better quality case and the connections are of a much higher quality too. Sound quality from the stereo analog output was decent enough, and will impress most entry-level audiophiles with its sound quality. Only the slightly hard treble details give away any indication as to the WiiM Pro's budget price tag. Want to share your opinion or get advice from other enthusiasts?

Better ADC for Line Input: It uses a TI Burr-Brown Audio PCM1861 ADC, achieving up to 192kHz/32-bit digital output, to convert analog sounds from devices like record players, MP3 players or TVs into digital format. This results in clearer, more detailed sound, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 110 dB. I just tested this soundbar with detachable Dolby Atmos speakers, and it blew me away on movie night Use your Spotify or TIDAL app as your remote control for WiiM Pro Plus and stream directly from these services.
