WiiM Pro Network Music Streamer

WiiM Pro Network Music Streamer - Built in Chromecast

The WiiM Pro lets you add high-res streaming to pretty much any sound system. Its high-performance DAC circuitry delivers rich, detailed sound that rivals streamers costing several times more, so you can get the best out of music services like Qobuz, TIDAL, Spotify, and more.

It can also be part of a multi-room music system that allows you to add digital and analogue sources — like a turntable — with ease, thanks to its analogue input and analogue-to-digital (ADC) chip. And it all fits into an unobtrusive, compact component that you can place almost anywhere.

User-Friendly Streaming Options: This streamer connects to your home network using Wi-Fi or Ethernet, and it's super-easy to set up using the free WiiM Home app for Apple® and Android™ devices. You can access and manage a bunch of music services from within the app, and control music across multiple WiiM players in different rooms (additional players sold separately). A sync audio option in the WiiM app uses a built-in mic on the Pro to get rid of any playback latency between grouped devices.

Plenty of users will take advantage of its Chromecast built-in and Apple AirPlay 2 support — both for single-zone and multi-room streaming. It also works with Spotify Connect and TIDAL Connect, which give you access to the Pro natively from within those apps.

Two-way Bluetooth lets you stream wirelessly from your compatible smartphone, tablet, computer, or other device using that familiar and popular platform to play music through whatever sound system your Pro is connected to. You can also stream from the Pro to your favourite Bluetooth headphones or speakers.

Flexible Audio Connections: You can connect to your receiver, amp, or powered speakers using the analogue stereo RCA output to take advantage of the Pro's built-in Texas Instruments DAC. Or use a digital output to connect to your favourite outboard DAC.

You can also connect an analogue source like a turntable or cassette deck to its stereo RCA input, or a digital audio source like a TV or CD player to the optical digital input. Then you can stream those sources to other compatible multi-room speakers or WiiM components in your system.

WiiM Pro Reviews

"If there's one thing the WiiM Pro offers, it's plenty of connections -- both physical and of the streaming variety. The back of the unit includes analogue and optical digital in and out jacks, plus a coaxial digital out. This is in addition to a USB-C power input, a microphone for multiroom audio synchronization, an Ethernet port and a 12-volt trigger.

For almost 20 years, I've covered streaming music, and the WiiM Pro is the best budget player I've tested since the Chromecast Audio. Though people such as myself hope that the Chromecast Audio sticks around forever, its future isn't at all guaranteed. I'm hoping that the excellent WiiM Pro is here to say." Ty Pendlebury, CNET
