What's your setup/configuration look like?

WiiM Ultra
Aiyima A70 with 48V 10A Power Supply
Sony BDP 1800 CD Transport, BR & DVD Player
Canton Chrono SL 520 Bookshelfs
Presonus Eris Sub8
Fire TV4 50"
Bee Mini PC

Extremely satisfying and budget-friendly solution for my personal small listening & viewing space.

I'm curious as to what is the function of your Wiim Pro(plus) in this desk setup? Your running a Mac Mini M4 attached to possibly the best DAC/Headphone amp in existence and can play anything you can think of that makes sound. (In your photo the Mac is playing native Qubuz)

The M4 is new, replacing a ChromeBox. I still use the WiiM remote all the time, and the DIY display, which shows anything playing on the WiiM. The large screen almost always has something else on it that hides Qobuz or other music sources, so I prefer glancing at the small display, which isn’t hidden.

Out of interest where did you source the racking and vinyl storage in your picture ?

Thanks
Lagom Studio, UK based. You can build bespoke versions from a variety of base patterns. They are all hand made. You can specify the wood, feet etc. I also included vinyl stoppers which mean your vinyl is always lined up with the edge of the shelf.
 
I'm pretty settled into my forever home now. My music server is up & running. New (to me) Thiels are moved in (to my wife's dismay).
I'm streaming audio thru the Ultra & into an Adcom 5800 amp, video thru a Fire TV Cube, and a DVD player. That's it. It's as minimalist as I can live with.
I like it.

My office setup, Ultra into JBL 4329P, sources are squeezelite dedicated server and a technics 1200. Also have 2 Wiim pros and 2 Wiim amps in other rooms plus an audio pro A10 wiim edition, very happy so far, replaced a bunch of failing (and failed) squeeze boxes, radios, transporters etc

Some changes so:

Central system control is the WiiM Ultra, so no changes there.
I swapped the Cambridge Alva Duo phono preamp for a MiniDSP ADept ADC/phonopre and inherited some hundred SACDs so I bought a used Yamaha CD-S2100 to play them. It is at 15 kg too heavy for the Montana shelf supports so with the help of a friend I had some copycat vertical supports made. I'm not much into optical symmetry as you can see.
