Could be interesting (if possible), to know what methods does WiiM use in upsampling process, that generally aren't so simple as believed. If it's an industrial secret, I understand and I'll keep upsample until Nad will fix their absurd incompatibility with 44.1KHz and it's integer multiples...

I can just say that I trust someone telling me there's a huge difference moving 20cm the speakers, than someone arguing about differences among (well working) digital interfaces or mains cables. 😎

Sure, anyone can have its own experience from listening and say anything about it but this not change the reliability that he could have and the trust someone could put on him. That's the reason why I don't like impressionists reviews. On other side, once someone got enough esperience on...

My two cents... The ears (perhaps even more than the eyes) are the most easily fooled organs, the auditory memory is the most foolable and influenced by a thousand emotional and external factors. When it comes to comparing differences of infinitesimal orders of magnitude, even the time that...

At last, since Bluos support after more than 4 months has not yet released the fix they told me it works, I bought a WiiM Pro for a price I couldn't miss and I will force 96KHz 24bit on Toslink or maybe I will use coax. In the meantime they didn't yet released Qobuz connect support also...

Here, just the south of Alps, I'm playing with no problems the track via connect or via WiiM app both. It would be interesting to know why there are always little differences in bitrates, they should be the same file and I always thought WiiM app shows the effective net weight of playing data...

After solution of the malfunction of connect, I have to remark one more point in favour of WiiM vs Bluos, when Tidal connect it's in use... Apart the every 1sec playing time update by WiiM vs every 5 sec update made by Bluos, that loses sync in lyrics display, another connect annoying point...

So it seems a Tidal's problem. Neither my WiiM mini and Bluos MDC2 card work, regardless of any terminal, android or iOS... Hoping someone told it to Tidal, even if their support is quite "useless" as the Bluos one...

Anyway, since Tidal connect works perfectly on the WiiM mini, maybe Qobuz could put more effort...

Is Qconnect available with regular subscription only, or even with the 30sec tryout? After last update I got a fast single message about availability of it but I can't remember what it said...

You have to trust the Spotify settings or switch to Tidal (it pays much more the artists, a little bit less than Qobuz)... 😎

Yes, I also considered them as temporary solution: CD player coax and WiiM's toslink on one of those adapters, connected by coax to amplifier and manually switch any time pass from external streamer to CD player and back. Some doubt regarding how these little boxes treat the signal and the...

i know it's better let the signal be as is created but since i'm using a WiiM mini on toslink input of a NAD C3050LE due to DLNA needs and since the penultimate FW update of NAD, toslink stopped working on 44.1, 88.2 and 176.4KHz signals with Dirac function inserted, due to lack of solutions by...

It seems a good piece of hardware but as usual, ASR doesn't go in depth to user interfaces, regarding compatibility and versatility that are the best features of WiiM.
