Streamers Node Nano vs. Wiim


Hey I just ordered the nano, but I might want to test out the wiim as well...

  • Is the sound quality comparable?

The primary reason is the Wiim has a touch screen.

 

Thoughts?

TIA

I have the Wiim Ultra and not the Nano.  I use an external DAC but two things that made me go for the Wiim are the software which is fantastic.  Easy to use from your phone or computer, navigation is great, has room correction/EQ.  I went with the Ultra because it allows me to connect a USB drive/HD and run my songs off of it like a server.   And the software is always updated and they listen to customers.

The built-in is DAC is good but a nice external DAC makes it sound a lot better.  And its a damn good price especially if you catch it on sale.

I owned the Ultra and purchased it because of its packed features. Later, I realized I needed to pair it with a DDC and an external DAC for it to sound acceptable to me. I now have a much better streamer, so I no longer use it.

If you’re still having a hard time deciding, just buy both and return the one you don’t like—it’s as simple as that.

Does the WIIM work with the Bluesound? Meaning can they talk to one another and sync? Can Innuous do this? Do they at least have the capability to link to multiple streamers? I have the Bluesound vault and a Bluesound node. it allows me to stream music on the main system with the vault while streaming different music on the deck (separate system) or you can sync them where they stream the same music. Love this for parties.
