- The Pro and Pro Plus differs in their internal DAC.
- The Pro uses the Texas Instruments PCM5121 giving a 106dB signal to noise ratio and -92dB (0.0025%) total harmonic distortion reference the 2V RMS line level output.
- The Pro Plus uses the AKM 4493SEQ, giving a 121dB signal to noise ratio and -113dB (0.00023%) total harmonic distortion.
- It also has a better clocking circuit and improvements in the power supplies.
- The WiiM Mini, Pro and Pro Plus all provide an analogue input to stream analogue sources across the network limited to 16-bit 48kHz on the Mini and Pro and supporting up to 24-bit, 192kHz streaming on the Pro Plus.
- Google Chromecast Audio is offered on the Pro and Pro Plus as is support for grouping with Nest smart home speakers and the Nest display.
- The Pro and Pro Plus are also required to work with Google Voice though all three devices support Siri and Alexa.
- All three can be grouped with echo speakers and Echo smart displays all three can be grouped with Apple HomePods and all three can be grouped with other WiiM or or other brands of device that use the LinkPlay software.
- All three support AirPlay 2 but only the Pro and Pro Plus support AirPlay Cast and Alexa Multiroom with UHD.
- DLNA, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Qobuz (with autoplay), TuneIn, Pandora, Deezer, vTuner, Amazon Music, SoundCloud, iHeartRadio, Radio Paradise Calm Radio Napster, Sound Machine and Amazon Alexa are all supported.
- Naturally you also get DLNA support, and streaming from personal cloud storage such as Dropbox and Google Drive is said to be on the horizon.
- The WiiM streamer are also Roon Ready.
- And WiiM recently added SqueezeLite support to the Pro and Pro Plus so they can interoperate with old Logitech Squeezebox devices or a Raspberry Pi running PiCore Player.
- The WiiM streamers support AirPlay 2 and are fully HomeKit compliant.
- Adding your WiiM streamers to the home app is a matter of a few taps at which point Siri can be used to quickly stream Apple Music content.
- Not an ideal solution perhaps especially given that Siri is the dumbest smart assistant going but it works.
- And if you’re not in the Apple ecosystem other integrations are possible.
- There are already multiple open-source home assistant integrations and a comprehensive (and very well documented) API over HTTP for integration into any control or automation system you can think of.
- The Pro (and Pro Plus) is a neat little box, 5.5 inches (140 mm) square and 1.6 inches (42 mm) high with radiuses corners.
- It reminds me of the first-generation Mac mini, albeit slightly smaller and encased in plastic.
- Along the front are a row of capacitive touch controls for play / pause volume up / down and a single preset.
- These can be disabled within the app.
- There is also a status LED which changes colour and flashes at varying speeds to indicate the status of various functions including boot, firmware upgrade, input source, network and Bluetooth.
- On the back are RCA analogue inputs and outputs.
- On the pro the latter supports up to 32-bit, 384kHz PCM while the Pro Plus goes all the way up to 768K PCM and DSD512.
- There is an optical input which like the analogue line input can be used to stream audio across the network or to a Bluetooth device at up to 24-bit, 192kHz.
- There are digital outputs on both S/PDIF optical and RCA coaxial both supporting 24-bit 192kHz PCM.
- You even get good quality analogue RCA and digital optical cables in the box.
- There is no means of getting 32-bit, 384K (or 768K) PCs to your external DAC via USB nor a means to connect a USB storage device or CD drive to the WiiM streamer.
- A couple of USB ports would have been the icing on a very tasty cake.
