Wiim Amp Versions

[bridgit]

I'm considering buying a Wiim Amp and I had some questions about the different versions I've come across. Amazon was showing an Essentials Edition and what appears to be the normal version shown on the Wiim site. What is the difference between these 2 versions?

On the forum there's some discussions about a Wiim Amp pro, but I can't find any other info about that model, has it been formally announced or is it just speculation?

Thanks

Hi,
I believe the Essentials Edition is the version with the Airplay 2 feature removed. .Please check the catalog.

WiiM amp pro has been officially announced, but no information on the release date yet.

1. Don't use the front PLAY button to do hardware reset

Accidentally reset to default

This morning I come into the living room, and suddenly I hear the amplifier saying something (unfortunately I don't speak English), and it's flashing red. I open the app and see that I have to set up my new device. I lost all my settings, presets, favorites... :((( I really don't like any...

2. Have a way for users to switch input from the front panel, and also user to know what the current input is

Input selection or indicator

I have trouble trying to switch input on my WiiM Amp - I have it on my desk connected to my PC and Mac, where I switch between Line In, Optical and sometimes also streaming (Wifi). The use of the remote to switch input is not intuitive because there's no clear indicator of the current active...
