WiiM Amp Amplified Audio Streamer

Description

An affordable, high-performance streaming amp All you need to set up a sweet stereo system with high-res streaming is the WiiM Amp and a nice pair of passive speakers. It’s got clean power that can handle even demanding 4-ohm speakers. And its high-performance DAC circuitry delivers rich, detailed sound that rivals streamers costing several times more, so you can get the best out of music services like Qobuz, TIDAL, and Spotify. User-friendly streaming options The Amp connects to your home network using Wi-Fi or Ethernet, and it’s super-easy to set up using the free WiiM Home app for Apple? and Android(tm). You can access and manage a bunch of music services from within the app and group additional WiiM components (sold separately) together for multi-room playback. A sync audio option in the WiiM app uses a built-in mic on the Amp to get rid of any playback latency between grouped devices. Plenty of users will take advantage of its Chromecast built-in, Apple AirPlay 2, and Alexa support – both for single-zone and multi-room streaming. It also works with Spotify Connect and TIDAL Connect, which give you access to the Amp natively from within those apps. Two-way Bluetooth lets you stream wirelessly from your compatible smartphone, tablet, computer. You can also stream from the Amp to your favorite Bluetooth headphones or speaker.

And the Amp handled it all very nicely. I also listened
