Introducing the WiiM Edition of the Audio Pro A10 MKII and C10 MKII

[Burnside]

The C10 has a USB port labelled "Service" on the back, not even that much on the A10.

Ok, but nothing there for end user use.

Yeah, sorry I could have been clearer, I'd love to get some WiiM capable speakers to go with the streamers, but without an Ethernet port I'm not likely to buy them. With apartments being a thing and congested WiFi in general, ethernet should always be an option, especially with latency critical applications like multiroom streaming.
These speakers are a nice step forward for WiiM, but please bring the features of every current WiiM product (except the Mini) to future devices, Ethernet port and Line-In are two of the features that made WiiM so attractive to me.

 

[wiimamp user]

I'm only interested in devices with an ethernet port, I have great WiFi but I also have ethernet throughout the house, at least if the USB port supported an Ethernet dongle that'd be something.

I dont know if you can use the usb port for this..?
But dont you think wifi will be good enough ?

WiFi will be fine for most people, but I very much prefer wired ethernet. It's unlikely that the USB port can be used for an ethernet adapter, but I have other devices with USB service ports that do work for ethernet, this is entirely my preference, if you're happy with WiFi only then buy the speakers, I'm just adding my opinion for future considerations.

But not for sale that I can see. Same on the Amazon UK site

 

[wiimamp user]

No longer available..

There is one for €512 from a third party seller allegedly. Not sure how that works.

Its not available you are right.
How is it possible it was..for such a short time?
I checked the Amazon site frequently..

 

[wiimamp user]

There is one for €512 from a third party seller allegedly. Not sure how that works.

It is also in the Audiopro Store.
Support is from Audiopro then.
Not Wiim.. what,s happening here?
A Wiim edition will get support from Wiim.. software and hardware wise.

Yes you can operate the Audiopro with the Wiim app. But it still isn't the Wiim edition then.
Will there be full support and does this speaker ( in the Audiopro store) has all the additional options from the Wiim edition?
What is this?

 

[wiimamp user]

And see the reviews..from the US..not EU.

 

[wiimamp user]

Strange..what's happening here one wonders.
A wiim edition available in the EU..for a very short time I guess? Why? How many where available? 2?..no seriously but how is this possible..
How come support is within Audiopro and it is a Wiim edition?
This would be very peculiar..!

What did they ask for the Wiim edition and the non Wiim edition?
So they advert with the Wiim and non Wiim version?
Non Wiim version also not available.

I just checked the non Wiim version on a Dutch webstore..
250 Euro for the A10MKII.
Also an A10( non mkII?) 180.

C10MKII 350.

I would buy.. A10,C10...but not the non Wiim version. I won't ..
In this same store I checked the Wiim Store..no audipro Wiim edition available.

I found a listing on the French Amazon. Only EUR 543,42... Seems like quite a big markup that is being added...

Sold by a marketplace seller based in London whose store seems to sell a very wide range of products. Wouldn’t touch them with the proverbial barge pole tbh…

Resellers buy in the U.S. and sell in other countries.
(Or, more precisely, we'll buy it when it sells.)

Your right
Thanks.
So in the update part there won't be a regio Block(EU) i assume?
And what.about the hardware support side of things? Support from amazon?.. even if you bought it from this US seller?

All the stranger given Audio pro is a EU company

All the stranger given Audio pro is a EU company

I agree...no Wiim editions.. but US has.
Its strange. Why prefer US customers and not the EU ones?
Aren't they even more important?
It's an EU based company..

The regular ones need to be sold also..and think about pricing when the Wiim version is available.
That could be some reasons.. audiopro versions (Wiim/non Wiim?in competition with eachother.

As has been said before, maybe the deal with Audio Pro is for the USA market where they wouldn‘t compete with Audio Pro’s own main market in Europe. I’m hopeful that the speakers will eventually be available elsewhere as I find it strange they’d have them listed on other Amazon sites albeit currently unavailable.
