Countdown to Prime Day: Save 20% on WiiM Starting July 8

Mark your calendar, WiiM's big summer sale deals are almost here. From July 8 through July 11, enjoy 20% off select WiiM products exclusively on Amazon. Featured deals include:
Whether you're upgrading your current audio setup or starting from scratch, this is your chance to elevate your sound experience for less.
 
Lots of sellers of WiiM will likely put the same devices on sale, but I can't say for sure. You'll want to check them out yourself!

Just avoid the usual lowballer on AliExpress.

Last sale I "bought and paid" for an Ultra.... on a Friday. Sale ended the monday after that. Seller claimed he shipped it but never did (tracking number was fake) and then on the next Friday wanted to cancel the sale.

Since I'd paid for it, I refused to cancel the sale and I tried to hold him to the terms of the completed sale (the transaction was perfected on my side) or at least to pay me the ~$70 that cost me to buy at non sale price. Neither Aliexpress nor the seller did anything. After five weeks Paypal refunded my money. That was the one and only sale I've ever done, and will be, on that site.

And get this. I could not enter negative feedback on the seller as I was told that I could only enter feedback when the seller allowed it. Seriously?

Anyhow, I did end up with four of them.... with external DACs. Bought them all on Amazon. Overnight deliveries!

Have they sold out of Pros and Pro Pluses on the UK site? I'm sure I saw them there with discounts a couple of days ago, but now none for sale... Was going to pick up a second Pro.

Looks like it. Richer Sounds still have stock.


Edit. Looks like I was 2 minutes too late as usual 🤣

Got your eyes on something other than a Sound?

As it turns out, yes. Whilst I would love a WiiM Sound, there's been no detailed update on price or an availability timeline to date, so I decided to go a different way for now. I was planning on the Sound as a supplementary speaker to use closer to our listening position due to the configuration of our smallish living area which has the speakers not directly facing our usual listening area. But the speakers being what they are, the sound does fill the space well, but I believe an additional speaker will improve the sound a little more.

So, to that end, I took advantage of the Prime sale and purchased an Echo 4th Gen and a WiiM Mini, so I can easily link the Mini to the Pro Plus and have everything played through the Pro Plus coming through the Echo speaker which will be connected to the Mini with the 3.5mm audio cable. This should be a simple solution for me given my tech prowess, or lack thereof! :)

The Echo was reduced by 53% at only $79, and the WiiM Mini came down to $88 with its discount and some Amazon credit I still had, so for a total of $167 I get myself a supplementary speaker with easy linking to the Pro Plus. Whilst the WiiM Sound probably won't be as much as the $1000 retailers were listing it at for pre-orders here, I suspect it will still be very expensive and most likely outside of my budget.

By all accounts, the sound of the Echo 4th Gen speaker is quite impressive.
