WiiM Pro Without Remote

A versatile and affordable high-res streamer

The WiiM Pro lets you add high-res streaming to pretty much any sound system. Its built-in DAC can deliver full, articulate sound from streaming music services like Qobuz, TIDAL, Spotify, and more.

This streamer can be part of a multi-room music system that allows you to add digital and analog sources - like a turntable - with ease, thanks to its analog-to-digital (ADC) chip. It also has built-in room correction. 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 Google Cast, Apple AirPlay 2, and Alexa built-in 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 favorite Bluetooth headphones or speaker.

Getting familiar with the Pro

I took a sample Pro home for some hands-on testing. I connected it to my NAD C700 integrated amp driving ELAC Uni-Fi Reference UBR62 bookshelf speakers. Setup was fast and easy with the streamlined, user-friendly app. Within three minutes I was listening to glitch-free streaming music via Qobuz that sounded full and detailed.

The Pro looks almost exactly like its sibling, the Pro Plus, which has upgraded DAC circuitry that gives it the edge when it comes to sound quality. But the Pro is no slouch, and its streaming capabilities are the same, which means if you use one of its digital outputs to connect to an outboard DAC, you can get as good or better sound from it. So if you've already got a DAC that you love - like the CapitalSound.ca customer-favorite Cambridge Audio DacMagic 200M - the more affordable Pro might be the best choice for you.

Or - if you approach multi-room streaming the way I do, with multiple stereo setups - you might use the Pro Plus in your dedicated listening room and a Pro in the living room, where you listen while you talk with family and friends. It will sound very nice, as I discovered listening to the Rolling Stones' "Monkey Man." The Pro showcased the dramatic intro, with Nicky Hopkins' icicle piano setting the stage for Keith Richards' stabbing rhythm guitar riffs and strangled-then-soaring slide guitar. I could even pick out the subtle vibraphone accents in the raunchy mix - no mean feat, especially for a component in this price range.

Versatile multi-room performance

I also tested the WiiM Pro Plus and Mini at the same time. I used the Pro Plus's analog stereo RCA output to connect to my Parasound Zamp v3 driving MartinLogan floor-standing speakers. I connected the Mini via its 3.5mm analog aux output to a Boston Acoustics table radio I bought at CapitalSound.ca around 2010.

Grouping and controlling all three WiiMs together worked great when I used the WiiM Home app, with fast playback response and stable settings that stay put - you don't have to re-pair every time you start a fresh streaming session. Engaging the sync audio feature quickly and efficiently corrected an initial delay between the three devices. The Pro and Pro Plus both support Google Cast, and grouping those two together that way worked well. Using AirPlay 2 to group all three streamers also worked fine, but with the slower control response and slightly less-detailed sound of that ecosystem.

Flexible audio connections

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

You can also connect an analog 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.

Included remote and voice control

The WiiM Pro comes with a remote that lets you control playback and more. You can even add the remote to your Alexa account and use its built-in mic to make voice commands. Or control it via your favorite Google Assistant or Alexa device or Siri on your iPhone® .
