The world does not need yet another music player for GNOME, but I promise this one is different…

WiiM, known for smart audio streamers, just launched the WiiM Bar, a soundbar featuring a unique 2.1-inch round touch display and true 3.0.2 Dolby Atmos. It boasts 8 speakers, 4 passive radiators, and RoomFit auto-correction for an incredibly immersive experience. This isn't just about sound; it's about a new way to interact with your home audio.

Glad to hear that #Qobuz is doing so well! I've been a satisfied subscriber for almost 3 years.

My main listening setup is comprised of a #Wiim Pro, #SMSL AO200 MKII preamp, and #RogersoundLabs speakers + subwoofer. Qobuz is integrated into #Audirvana , so I can seamlessly alternate between streaming albums and FLAC files from my own library.

I just got a premium new electronic Device that DIDN'T require me to create an account to use it, never mind a subscription. Feels weird!

It's a Wiim smart speaker, and it has native support for Lyrion Media Server, which is so old (but still up to date) that it is from a time when developers asked "why would you make a login?"

Official #WiiM integration is finally shipped with new #HomeAssistant version! I was waiting for this.

Best WiiM Streamers (2026): Simplify Your Sound With WiiM Streaming Gear

Ich streame jetzt via Airplay 2 auf einen #WiiM Mini https://amzn.to/4tAq0UJ.

Der ist via Toslink mit 24 Bit / 192kHz mit dem Musical Fidelity B1xi verbunden, um dessen höherwertigeren DAC nutzen zu können.

Wie viel besser das als Bluetooth mit AAC Codec klingt weiß ich noch nicht, aber kleinen Hickups von der Bluetooth Verbindung sind weg 👍

Und die Multiroom Fähigkeit könnte für den Außenbereich hier auf dem Boot interessant werden.
