    The competition doesn't sleep

    So, USB on Nano doesn't work as an output, or?

    The competition doesn't sleep

    Glad yo hear you're happy with the WiiMs. I'm using a Mini and also a WiiM Amp in another space. Fully happy with both of them, although the Mini gets less playtime these days. I think I've heard of some issues with the 50+, but the S10+ was a novelty and for 53 EUR, I just couldn't pass up on...

    The competition doesn't sleep

    As a WiiM Mini and S10+ user, I can't agree with you. Yes, features are lacking on S10+, but the sound of the Mini and the S10+ are absolutely comparable, not to say identical, when using them through the same outboard dac. I've had no issues with any of them and I don't mind the lack of 24/192...

    The competition doesn't sleep

    While I know that new Nodes have been the "spark" for this thread, I would like to ask what about other competition? What can we consider as realistic competition to WiiM products, especially the WiiM Ultra? I've recently purchased an Arylic S10+. Paid 53 EUR for it. I think it gave WiiM Mini a...

    The competition doesn't sleep

    Thanks for taking the time to answer my question(s). Obviously, everybody's mileage varies, depending on their particular sound tastes. There's no doubt that Bluesound pieces are better built than most of the WiiM's devices, they feel less plastic at least. Features-wise, the Ultra is a clear...

    Does Nano have any analog inputs at all? I think not... Did you happen to a/b test Nano Vs. any streamer from WiiM with any of your external dacs? If yes, what were your impressions of the differences? Thanks

    Auto sensing of Optical Input is too fast

    That's exactly what I want to happen - otherwise, I could turn the auto-sensing off for that particular input and switch manually. For me, that's logical behavior.

    Auto sensing of Optical Input is too fast

    Thank you So, this is correct behaviour. It would be logical to me that if auto-sensing is switched on for an input, user wants the device to switch to that input. That's what I would expect at least, since for me that's the essence of the feature, isn't it?

    Auto sensing of Optical Input is too fast

    Sorry for a semi off-topic question: Can anyone explain how auto-sensing should behave in the following situation: - my TV is connected to my AMP via line-in (only option I have at the moment) - I have auto-sensing enabled on line input - If the AMP is off, when I switch on the TV, the AMP...

    Yes, I can see where you are coming from regarding the ease of use of an iR Vs. (original WiiM) BT remote. But, since I'm using the WiiM Amp and my system is really simple, I don't really care about the remotes - the app does everything I need.

    No, I don't really want to discuss remotes at all, but I was looking forward to a bit of a competition bashing discussion when I saw this thread 🤣🤣🤣

    The competition doesn't sleep

    This discussion has somehow drifted off from the competition to remotes. Maybe we could dedicate a separate thread just for remote controls?

    The competition doesn't sleep

    As a former user of both the BlueSound NODE (130) and a WiiM Mini, I can honestly say that to my ears, there was no significant audible difference switching from a €500 NODE to a €100 Mini. There were some sonic differences, but I can't say any of them was "better" than the other. I've sold the...

    Which amp to match the Ultra?

    As I said, I have two V3 Monos on the way. We'll see how that goes. I was curious as to how that would sound and that's why I ordered them. If they live up to expectations, I'm going to relocate or maybe sell my Atoll IN100/MS120 system and combine the V3s with a WiiM Ultra

    Which amp to match the Ultra?

    Good reviews, but a tiny bit pricey for me. Are they better than the similarly priced Hypex or Purifi amps?
