Do you guys still have issues with Deezer? The experience I had three months ago was terrible.
Much of this frustration should go to Amazon since this kind of things happen periodically on all of my Amazon devices, not just WiiM.
Smislov posted a month or so ago that the mini was available refurbished on eBay for $64.99. They are still available, by the hundreds, and the seller is listed as Linkplay out of CA. I wonder if they are fixing broken SPDIF ports and reselling them. In any case, I wanted to let everyone know that mine came in good shape and works great. Optical cover seems fine, or at least I haven't broken it yet. Also, Qobuz is in the browse menu, connected effortlessly, and so did the "home music server" with PLEX. It just works.
It works fine but you need a DLNA server to share your files in the local network.I am trying to decide between a Wiim mini and a Dell Wyse 3040 (with Volumio). I mostly listen to my own flac files stored on my unRAID box. I cant find a lot of info on how well the Wiim handles local files. Is it any good for someone who is playing %95 local?

My Topping DAC is certainly competent. I believe my problem is that I cannot quite accept the Mini as real… as in, “too good to be true”, and that I should have spent a lot more than $100! The damn thing is so practical and functional, I figure something has to be wrong with the sound quality…

Another huge value if you are into tinkering is the raspberry pi 4.

I have a few questions about the Wiim mini. I have the Wiim Pro on the ground floor connected to the direct ethernet cable in the box.
My first question is:
- If I buy the Wiim mini to put upstairs, does it have enough wifi power??
The second question:
- I have a wifi extender upstairs, if I use this wifi connection for the mini, is there going to be a problem with the Wiim Home Android app to manage the 2 (Wiim Pro and Mini) at the same time?
Last question:
- About Tidal, do I have to have 2 Tidel accounts if on one Wiim I send Tidal music and on the other another Tidel album??
d experience mini does not appreciate the 32 bits....In case we are bored with the mini and it’s little issues. I don’t think it’s pushing 32 bit audio even if I’m using Windows.
How did the testing/ comparisons go?Thanks it's working now via Amazon app! I'll do a full weekend of testing vs. the bluesound node got lots of variations of connections and routing through my standalone dac and onboard dac in my integrated amp to test. The streaming via native amazon app is a big deal.
