It's time to evolve into new Flagship

Although I think their software is better than a lot of established companies. As a Marantz user, if you have ever used Heos, that thing belongs in the bin. The same goes for Yamaha software, which is truly awful.

I briefly had a Heos Link HS2 which I’d bought for 24/192 Amazon Music Unlimited. Anytime I mentioned it, I relished the use of the adjective “execrable” to describe its app

There's an interesting FiiO S15 streamer with excellent hardware, but the software isn't just bad; it's practically nonexistent. If a similar streamer were from WiiM, I'd be rushing to the store.

Regarding a sub-brand, creating one would entail significant expenses and significantly increase the cost of the product. This is only possible if the product is truly positioned as luxury. Why would WiiM need this? Such companies already exist. Using existing developments, an affordable flagship could be created without unnecessary sacrifices.

I think 'Vibelink' may become a sub-brand of WiiM in the future. I don't think it would be difficult to retain the WiiM name while launching several sub-brands.

Perhaps, but in my personal opinion, it's pointless. Brand promotion is still a thing. And there are already streamers under the WiiM brand.

You appear to be confusing the new brand with the sub-brand..

What's the difference? The device will have a word I'm unfamiliar with. I've been on this forum for a long time, and I was sure "Vibelink" was the name of one of the models. Few will be aware of any connections between the brands.

But what are we even talking about? We're fighting over the skin of an unkilled bear.
