EISA Awards: Award-Winning Product
Each year, dozens of European journalists gather to select the best electronic products of the year. Awarded by a diverse and impartial jury, the EISA (Expert Imaging and Sound Association) awards recognize exceptional products for their performance, design, or ergonomics.
Overview
The WiiM AMP is a stereo integrated hi-fi amplifier that combines powerful sound, modern connectivity, and ease of use in a surprisingly compact format. Designed for music enthusiasts, it stands out for its ability to drive speakers with efficient digital amplification, direct access to a multitude of streaming services, and compatibility with voice assistants.
Modern amplification in a small package
This amplifier is based on Class D digital amplification technology, known for its ability to deliver clear and dynamic sound while remaining energy-efficient. This allows the WiiM AMP to produce enough power to drive various speakers, whether compact models for intimate listening or more robust systems to fill a room. All of this is housed in a discreet chassis, avoiding the bulk of traditional, often larger amplifiers.
This digital approach also reduces heat output, which extends the device’s lifespan and maintains stable performance even during prolonged use. Whether you’re listening to an album in the background or turning up the volume for a party, this amplifier remains discreet while ensuring reliable sound reproduction.
Voice control for simplified use
One of the strengths of the WiiM AMP space grey lies in its compatibility with the most common voice assistants: Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant. With just a word, you can start a playlist, adjust the volume, or skip to the next track without lifting a finger. This integration turns the amplifier into an intuitive companion, perfect for those who like to keep their hands free or already have connected devices at home.
Unlimited audio streaming
For digital music enthusiasts, this amplifier is a true gateway to an almost infinite catalog. It connects to an impressive list of streaming platforms, covering both industry giants and more specialized services for audiophiles. Whether you prefer exploring curated playlists or diving into your favorite albums, everything is accessible directly from the device without cumbersome intermediaries.
Support for these services is accompanied by compatibility with protocols like AirPlay 2 and Chromecast, which enable synchronized playback across multiple rooms. This is a great feature for creating a cohesive ambiance throughout the house or sharing sound between different spaces without complex wiring.
Connectivity designed for all sources
The WiiM AMP space grey excels in its ability to accommodate a variety of audio sources. With an HDMI ARC input, it easily connects to a TV to enhance the sound of your movies or series. RCA and optical/coaxial inputs allow you to connect classic devices like a CD player or console, while the USB-A port accepts drives or disks containing your music files. The screw terminals, meanwhile, ensure a solid connection with your speakers.
This versatility makes the amplifier a central, adaptable hub capable of juggling modern digital and timeless analog sources. The only downside: no dedicated phono input, but an external preamp can fill this gap for vinyl enthusiasts.
Simplified installation and setup
Despite its many features, the WiiM AMP is designed to be simple to install and configure. Connecting to the Wi-Fi network is done in a few steps via the app, which guides the user through the process. For those who prefer a wired connection, an Ethernet port is also available.
Firmware updates are done automatically via the Internet, ensuring the amplifier always benefits from the latest improvements and bug fixes. This software evolution capability is a major asset, potentially allowing the addition of new features over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the WiiM AMP compatible with all speakers?
The WiiM AMP is compatible with most passive speakers on the market. Its output power of 60W at 8 ohms and 100W at 4 ohms makes it suitable for a wide range of speakers, from compact models to medium-sized floor-standing speakers.
Can the WiiM AMP be used with analog sources like a turntable?
Absolutely. The RCA input of the WiiM AMP allows you to connect analog sources like a turntable (equipped with a phono preamp), a CD player, or any other device with a line output. This makes the WiiM AMP an excellent bridge between the analog world and modern streaming technologies.
How does multi-room synchronization work?
The WiiM AMP uses an integrated microphone to measure and automatically correct audio delays between different devices in a multi-room system. This technology ensures precise synchronization, avoiding unpleasant echo effects when multiple units play the same content in different rooms.
Does the WiiM AMP support CD-quality or higher audio file playback?
Yes, the WiiM AMP supports high-resolution audio file playback up to 24-bit / 192 kHz. This includes common formats like FLAC, ALAC, WAV, and AIFF. The integrated ESS Sabre DAC ensures high-quality conversion for these files, allowing you to fully appreciate the nuances of high-resolution recordings.
Can the WiiM AMP be used as a preamplifier?
While the WiiM AMP is primarily designed as an integrated amplifier, it does not have a dedicated preamplifier output. However, its subwoofer output could potentially be used to connect an external power amplifier, though this is not its intended use.
Does the WiiM AMP require a permanent Internet connection?
An Internet connection is necessary to enjoy streaming features and firmware updates. However, the WiiM AMP can operate without an Internet connection for physically connected sources (HDMI, RCA, optical) and for playback via Bluetooth. The local Wi-Fi connection can also be used for DLNA streaming without Internet access.
