And I’ll continue to work on my grammarThis is a place of learning for me. And I can also study English.

Surely there’s a difference measuring something like a room’s acoustics for the purpose of identifying issues and applying corrective actions, compared to just measuring for comparison with other kit or paper specs?
And what if kit he listens to measures badly but performs well to his ears? Surely that’s what subjective reviews are all about?
I find him entertaining at times - don’t know if I’d go for a pint with him though

Darko did and still does so much more for bringing good hifi to the people than all of the OAs. And of course he does well for his bank account. Should one blame him?
Why is he for so many people kind of relevant? And f.e. ASR is not? All the others are idiots? Average and not educated listeners? May be, but they will have fun with his reviews. And quite sure they will have fun with the stuff they eventually bought because he "influenced" them. It reads so often envious...
He does it in an entertaining way, others do it in their (pseudo?)scientific way.
For both ways and even more is place.

That's 1000% sure it's better than the NODE X.Perhaps the Pro+'s analog output is better than the NODE X, and that alone is commendable.
You haven't posted your Node X review yet, have you?That's 1000% sure it's better than the NODE X.

It's measured, photographed and almost written, but I will post it once back from my trip.
But no suspense here: The WiiM Pro Plus is performing way better in just every aspect.
One of the best approaches I know about subjectivists versus objectivists:

Serious Question: How can DAC's have a SOUND SIGNATURE if they measure as transparent? Are that many confused?
I know there are people out there that think cables affect sound, which is much worse, but there really is no response to something like that, but just to smile and nod. But what about people who talk about DACS as if they were headphone drivers or speakers, and talk about the SOUNDSTAGE...

Amir's Cult has taking back the stage 
Interesting, although it won't be acceptable for many. And you didn't replace the PSU of Node for LPS probably
Hi, @VintageFlanker
Always looking forward to your reviews. Above all, the product photos are very nice.
your engineers, or those of akm (if as it seems you have taken over evk from akm) can they specify the output impedance of the pro plus?
it is sensitive data....
thank you...

Alternatively, contributing as part of the chorus or dramatis personaeAmir's Cult has taking back the stage
Let's just assume for one second that ASR is the "truth" and everyone is just fools, after I receive my Pro+ and put it through some listening tests, how do I know if "good results" are not actually due to good acoustics in my room or bad results are not due to bad acoustics in my room?Amir's Cult has taking back the stage
Especially if I use the "Pure Audio" mode on my Elite AVR which bypasses DSP and any Room Correction.
In fact, how do we know if one reviewer's room may interact positively with one device but not the other?
So excited to get my hands on the Pro+ when it can be ordered on Amazon Canada.
Strange assumption even if just for one second. And it's pointless to measure the streamer including variables like room acoustic.
On my Onkyo AVR “pure audio” means the video circuits are disengaged. Are you sure you don’t mean “direct” mode which bypasses DSP etc and presents 2.0 from the source unaltered (supposedly).

Hi @WiiM Support . Are there any under the hood design improvements on the digital domain for pro plus ?
Something along the lines of separated power supply and clock lines for digital and analog ?
Is coax output transformer coupled to minimise common mode noise ?
