Yes. When you pair two WiiM devices they are sharing the audio lossless over network (WiFi or Ethernet) connection. It is like the difference between AirPlay vs BT. Although I think the Pro Plus would be the easier solution, if you are interested in a less expensive solution and comfortable...

My WiiM AMP is driving a pair of DBR62’s in my home office and I can confirm to “my aging ears” this combo sounds very good (at a very reasonable price point).

For fear and balanced reporting….. I just saw on the ASR thread a reference PCB v2 unit without any audible hum. Post in thread 'WiiM Amp discussion' https://audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/wiim-amp-discussion.47096/post-1859504

Funny that you mention that as I did not hear the hum at first either. Interestingly, it was your comment about the unit feeling warm that made me curious to check how warm mine felt. I think I actually felt the hum with my hand resting on the top of the unit before I actually heard it and that...

I can also confirm that to my ears, my first batch and replacement units both sound great. I could not perceive any difference in sound quality. However my conclusions should be taken with the following understanding: I do not claim to have “audiophile ears” I was not using the sub out My amp...

My serial # starts P1TF235005xxx. And the 50th work week would match my "uboot_verinfo": "231211.095208" But I agree it is still probably not a production timestamp. The binary build date seems more likely. It could just be coincidence that my dates aligns or maybe they need to build a new...

Certainly a date time stamp. I got my replacement unit from Amazon US yesterday and mine is "uboot_verinfo": "231211.095208" and also "PCB_version": "5" Interesting that mine is so much older although maybe @onlyoneme has a better source for their new unit. I am happy as my new one is dead...

I think you will have better luck with a cheap travel router that lets you connect to an authentication page. These guy have some good info on them if you are not familiar. https://independenttravelcats.com/best-travel-routers/
