price and value for money. While there are plenty of streamers on the market boasting excellent hi-res quality, their asking prices are <em>much<\/em> higher, often over double that of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/Hi-Fi\/WiiM-Pro-Plus-Audiophile-Grade-Multi-Room-Music-Streamer\/5X66\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WiiM Pro Plus<\/a><\/strong>. At just over \u00a3200, this powerhouse certainly shakes up the streaming market!<\/p>\n<p>If you judge a product&#8217;s value on its materiality, the small and visually unassuming Pro Plus may not look like anything special at first glance (more on its design later). However, WiiM do throw in a few extras which might win you over\u2026<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll find a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/Accessories\/Wiim-Voice-Remote-for-Wiim-Mini-Pro-and-Pro-Plus\/63NX\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">voice-compatible remote control<\/a><\/strong> and premium digital optical cable included in the box, two accessories which you would normally need to purchase separately when buying a WiiM Mini or standard WiiM Pro.<\/p>\n<p>For a product equally as suited to audiophiles as it is to beginners, it certainly doesn&#8217;t carry the typical audiophile-grade price point. So is it <em>really <\/em>up to the standard of other audiophile-grade streamers? Let&#8217;s dive in deeper.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sound_and_Performance\"><\/span>Sound and Performance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>If you&#8217;re an audiophile, have your hi-res files on hand when using the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/Hi-Fi\/WiiM-Pro-Plus-Audiophile-Grade-Multi-Room-Music-Streamer\/5X66\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WiiM Pro Plus<\/a><\/strong>. Unsurprisingly, this is how you&#8217;ll obtain the best performance from it. Giving the device as much detail as possible gives you the best chance of getting immaculate sound back out. I&#8217;d also recommend keeping your WiiM Pro Plus set to full volume to avoid sound degradation.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t use hi-res streaming platforms or local network-attached files, don&#8217;t worry. The WiiM Pro Plus helps even the most compressed digital audio sound clear and consistent. However, if you don&#8217;t care about hi-fi quality, you might want to consider saving even more money and opting for the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/Hi-Fi\/WiiM-Mini-Multi-Room-Music-Streamer\/5M4I\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WiiM Mini<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>You can read about the WiiM Mini <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/blog\/wiim-audio-the-future-of-streaming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/strong> or shop <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/Hi-Fi\/WiiM-Mini-Multi-Room-Music-Streamer\/5M4I\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>But back to the Pro Plus. It offers a more hi-fi-oriented sound quality than the WiiM Mini and standard WiiM Pro. This is largely thanks to its superior DAC chip &#8211; the ultra-low distortion, sub-flagship, AKM 4493SEQ with Velvet Sound Technology. If you&#8217;ve used products like <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/Hi-Fi\/Topping-E30-II-Lite-Desktop-DAC-Black\/64YA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Topping&#8217;s E30 DACs<\/a><\/strong>, you can expect a similar level of low-noise decoding from the WiiM Pro Plus.<\/p>\n<p>But there&#8217;s more to it than just the DAC chip. The clearer attack and low noise of the WiiM Pro Plus also come down to a more sophisticated clocking circuit and power supply. This has been improved over the standard WiiM Pro model and makes a noticeable difference.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, WiiM Pro Plus is accurate and immediate with decent dynamic variation and layer separation. I would say it edges towards the cooler-sounding side of the spectrum but, as ever, the results you obtain will depend on the rest of your kit.<\/p>\n<p>So is it truly audiophile-grade? Yes. While there are streamers out there that deliver an even greater hi-fi quality, none do so at anywhere near this price point.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Design\"><\/span>Design<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Earlier in the article I touched on how small and unassuming the WiiM Pro Plus looks; I&#8217;ll elaborate on that now.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not an intricate or innovative object, but rather a straightforward plastic box with a minimalistic matte black finish. While it doesn&#8217;t break any new ground in terms of appearance, the design is well-executed and understated, comfortably slotting into a spare 140 x 140 x 42 mm space in your existing system.<\/p>\n<p>One minor drawback of the matte plastic finish is its tendency to become grubby with fingerprints and dust over time. However, this won&#8217;t be much of a concern if you choose to interact via the WiiM Home App or the included voice-compatible remote control.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/Hi-Fi\/WiiM-Pro-Plus-Audiophile-Grade-Multi-Room-Music-Streamer\/5X66\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32095 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/WiiM-Pro-Plus-Review-Connectivity.jpg\" alt=\"WiiM Pro Plus Review - Connectivity\" width=\"1330\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/WiiM-Pro-Plus-Review-Connectivity.jpg 1330w, https:\/\/www.av.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/WiiM-Pro-Plus-Review-Connectivity-1280x385.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.av.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/WiiM-Pro-Plus-Review-Connectivity-980x295.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.av.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/WiiM-Pro-Plus-Review-Connectivity-480x144.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1330px, 100vw\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Connectivity\"><\/span>Connectivity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Moving on to connectivity, the WiiM Pro Plus is brimming with potential, both now and for the future. Clearly, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkplay.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Linkplay<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211; the company behind WiiM&#8217;s software &#8211; are keeping a close eye on customer feedback and adding to the functionality of their products via firmware updates. That means your WiiM product is likely to get even better with time.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of current physical connections, however, you&#8217;ll get your power via USB-C cable, and then you can boost your internet connection with the Ethernet input. Connect various audio sources and other devices via digital optical input and output, a digital coaxial output, and stereo RCA line-level ins and outs.<\/p>\n<p>Do bear in mind that the RCA ports on the rear of the box are quite close together. This might make it a bit tricky to fit high-end analogue interconnects with large-barrelled plugs. But for most standard cables you&#8217;ll be absolutely fine.<\/p>\n<p>As far as wireless connectivity is concerned, the device supports Bluetooth 5.1 with SBC and AAC codec compatibility, as well as Wi-Fi. For today&#8217;s modern whole-home streaming, there&#8217;s Chromecast built-in, Apple AirPlay 2 support, and the WiiM Home control app to help you manage all your streaming apps in one place. This includes Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz, Deezer, Amazon Music, Pandora, and TuneIn among many others.<\/p>\n<p>Your WiiM Pro Plus is also compatible with a range of voice assistants including Alexa, Siri, or Google. Easily set routines and automations in the native Alexa, Apple Home, or Google Home apps.<\/p>\n<p>Excitingly, WiiM announced in December 2023 that the WiiM Pro Plus is now officially <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/blog\/what-is-roon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Roon Ready<\/a><\/strong>. That means anyone with a WiiM Pro Plus can benefit from Roon&#8217;s streaming technology &#8211; even existing owners! This certification makes the device discoverable on Roon&#8217;s app and platform for users with an active subscription.<\/p>\n<p>Despite looking simplistic, the WiiM Pro Plus is packed with potential.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Control\"><\/span>Control<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>So how do you go about using all of this? Here are your options:<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-32102\" src=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/WiiM-Pro-Plus-with-Voice-Remote-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"WiiM Pro Plus with Voice Remote\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Firstly, you can operate the WiiM Pro Plus by hand with touch-sensitive control points on the front panel. These points include volume up\/down, play\/pause\/set-up, and preset assignment. A three-colour LED will also indicate the various states of pairing you&#8217;re in. All the specific colour settings are outlined in the user manual.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, WiiM offer an infrared, voice-compatible remote control which, as I mentioned earlier, is included in the box with your Pro Plus. This remote uses Amazon&#8217;s Alexa voice assistant but does not require you to own any additional built-in Alexa device. To begin using the remote, simply pair it via the WiiM Home App first.<\/p>\n<p>This brings me on to the third way you can control your Pro Plus\u2026<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;A Quick Review of the WiiM Home App&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px||||false|false&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;2px&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;gcid-45928375-1fd3-4d7e-b1f0-0adee316b54f&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{%22gcid-45928375-1fd3-4d7e-b1f0-0adee316b54f%22:%91%22border_color_top%22%93}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Quick_Review_of_the_WiiM_Home_App\"><\/span>A Quick Review of the WiiM Home App<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>WiiM offer a surprisingly smooth and intuitive app for control. It&#8217;s worth noting how impressive the app is for a system of the WiiM Pro Plus&#8217; price. The App&#8217;s key features include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Parametric EQ<\/li>\n<li>10-band graphic EQ<\/li>\n<li>26 EQ presets<\/li>\n<li>Auto-sensing of line-in<\/li>\n<li>Auto-sensing of optical input (this has solved some initial latency issues)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While many people prefer to control their music via native streaming platform apps, e.g. TIDAL or Spotify, if you&#8217;d rather see them all in one place, WiiM Home App facilitates that.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that WiiM has such a dependable app which is frequently updated and improved, to me, signals their plans for a much broader product range all encompassed within this WiiM Home App ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.av.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/WiiM-Home-App-banner.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;WiiM Home App banner&#8221; title_text=&#8221;WiiM Home App banner&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Who Is the WiiM Pro Plus Music Streamer Suited to?&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px||||false|false&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;2px&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;gcid-45928375-1fd3-4d7e-b1f0-0adee316b54f&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{%22gcid-45928375-1fd3-4d7e-b1f0-0adee316b54f%22:%91%22border_color_top%22%93}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Is_the_WiiM_Pro_Plus_Music_Streamer_Suited_To\"><\/span>Who Is the WiiM Pro Plus Music Streamer Suited To?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If your trusty hi-fi system is missing modern streaming capabilities and starting to feel outdated, that&#8217;s where the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.av.com\/Hi-Fi\/WiiM-Pro-Plus-Audiophile-Grade-Multi-Room-Music-Streamer\/5X66\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WiiM Pro Plus<\/a><\/strong> steps in. It&#8217;s brilliant at bringing high-resolution, audiophile-grade streaming to your existing setup without any hassle. It also means there&#8217;s no need to part ways with your treasured kit. All you&#8217;ll require is this extra piece &#8211; no need to fork out for all-new separates.<\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s not just the owners of vintage systems who will find value in the WiiM Pro Plus. Those with modern systems looking to broaden their connectivity horizons will find it equally helpful. For instance, if your current streamer doesn&#8217;t offer Chromecast and you&#8217;re an Android phone user, the WiiM Pro Plus can fill that gap nicely. It&#8217;s also smaller, and more affordable than most premium streamers with similar specs.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, if you&#8217;re looking for a simple solution to multiroom streaming with smart home integration, the WiiM Pro Plus plays well with many third-party smart speakers or other WiiM\/Linkplay devices, so you can build a system with your favoured voice assistant and smart home system.<\/p>\n<p>And for those just setting foot into the world of hi-fi systems, the WiiM Pro Plus is an excellent place to start. Want something small, affordable, yet high-quality? A system composed of the WiiM Pro Plus, an amplifier, and a pair of passive bookshelf speakers could be your perfect match. There are only a few key instances where the WiiM Pro Plus won&#8217;t work for you, and that includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A requirement for built-in HDMI and eARC connectivity<\/li>\n<li>Need for the very highest quality streaming available, where affordability doesn&#8217;t matter<\/li>\n<li>Desire for more impressive or substantial build quality<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ultimately, if you&#8217;re starting out, upgrading, or expanding your hi-fi system, WiiM Pro Plus is <em>very <\/em>likely to suit you.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;FAQs&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px||||false|false&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;2px&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;gcid-45928375-1fd3-4d7e-b1f0-0adee316b54f&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{%22gcid-45928375-1fd3-4d7e-b1f0-0adee316b54f%22:%91%22border_color_top%22%93}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_difference_between_the_WiiM_Pro_and_the_WiiM_Pro_Plus\"><\/span>What is the difference between the WiiM Pro and the WiiM Pro Plus?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The primary differences between the WiiM Pro and the WiiM Pro Plus concern their internal technologies and performance, rather than the way they look. You&#8217;ll find a more sophisticated DAC chip with Velvet Sound Technology, superior analogue-to-digital conversion, and lower noise clocking in the WiiM Pro Plus. It also has improved power supply and circuitry and can handle up to 192kHz\/24-bit via audio input and 768kHz\/32-bit analogue audio output. By comparison, the WiiM Pro handles up to 48kHz\/16-bit and 384kHz\/32-bit respectively.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_the_WiiM_Pro_Plus_a_DAC\"><\/span>Is the WiiM Pro Plus a DAC?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The WiiM Pro Plus does function as a Digital-to-Analogue Converter (DAC).
