I’m torn between using the Wiim Mini via an existing DAC I own using the optical link. But I’m concerned I need to get the Pro so I can use its coax output. I believe I need that to get the most from my Tidal ‘max’ streaming rates. But I’m interested in hearing your experience and opinions on this.
To increase the sound stage width and depth on the wiim mini, use an actual powersupply, not the USB adaptor that came with it. I bought a JAMECO RELIAPRO DDU050100M2270 AC/DC Power Supply with an AAOTOKK Type C Power Adapter Type C USB Male to DC 5.5x2.1mm from Amazon, and it helped quite a bit. I use optical to my dac.
