HOW TO SET UP

CONNECT AUDIO INPUT to IN PORT ON WIIM PRO PLUS

The WiiM Pro Plus features two distinct audio input interfaces: the analog LINE IN and the digital optical (TOSLINK) SPDIF IN. This versatile device functions as both a preamplifier and a network audio transmitter through Wi-Fi or Ethernet. You can stream analog audio input from sources such as CD players, vinyl players, TVs, or computers to other WiiM Pro Plus, Pro, or Mini devices, as well as to AirPlay-enabled devices (using AirPlay Cast), either singly or in multiple combinations.

  • Scenario 1: Analog Audio Source Input (CD Player, Vinyl Player, or Computer)
    Connect your source device to the WiiM Pro Plus’s LINE IN port using a line-in cable. One of two types of cable as follows, might be used, i.e., RCA to RCA or Aux to RCA.

    Steps to set up the WiiM Pro Plus with the line-in input:
    (Perform step 3/4/5 after the WiiM Home App is installed)
    1. Insert the line-in cable into the LINE IN port located at the back of the WiiM Pro Plus.
    2. Connect the other end of the cable to the AUX or LINE OUT port on your audio source device (CD player, vinyl player, TV, or computer).
    3. In the WiiM Home app, navigate to the ‘Browse’ tab, choose ‘Select source on device,’ then opt for ‘LINE IN’ to set it as your audio distribution source.
    4. For creating a multiroom music group with your WiiM Pro Plus, access the Devices section in the WiiM Home app. Select the WiiM Pro Plus linked to your LINE-IN device, tap the group button (displaying a “link” icon within a box) in the upper-right corner of the device box, and choose the WiiM Pro Plus you wish to transmit audio to.
    5. Once done, the music from the device connected to the WiiM Pro Plus will play across your multiroom music group.
    6. Scenario 2: Digital Audio Source Input (TV or PC)
      Connect your source device to the WiiM Pro Plus’s SPDIF IN (optical) port using an optical cable. WiiM Pro Plus Hi-Res Music Streamer 10Steps to set up the WiiM Pro Plus with the SPDIF IN are the same as Line-in, replacing Line-in with SPDIF IN.
      Notes:
      • You can also enable “Autosense” on the WiiM Pro Plus to automatically play your Line-In or Optical-In source when WiiM Pro Plus detects a signal. You can enable this feature from the WiiM Home App.
      • WiiM Pro Plus has a built-in EQ to process the audio input based on your taste. You can also control the audio volume in the App remotely without adjusting your audio input.
      • Some source devices may require a preamp. For example, some turntables do not have a preamp built-in, so you will need to connect your turntable to an external preamp and then connect the preamp to WiiM Pro Plus.

CONNECT WIIM PRO PLUS’S AUDIO OUT PORT

The WiiM Pro Plus features three distinct audio output interfaces that offer flexibility in connecting your DAC, amplifier, or powered speaker. These interfaces include the analog LINE out, the digital optical (TOSLINK), and the Coaxial port. It’s important to note that the WiiM Pro Plus is designed to output audio through a single one of these audio output options.

Setting Up WiiM Pro Plus Audio Output:
(Note: Perform steps 3, 4, and 5 after installing the WiiM Home App)

  1. Depending on your preferred audio equipment, select the appropriate connection method: RCA cable, optical cable (TOSLINK), or coaxial.
    • For the RCA cable, plug it into the LINE OUT port on the back of the WiiM Pro Plus.
    • For optical cable (TOSLINK), plug it into the SPDIF OUT port.
    • For the coaxial cable, plug it into the COAX port.
  2. Connect the other end of the cable to your audio equipment (DAC, amplifier, or powered speaker).
  3. Within the WiiM Home App on your iOS or Android device, designate the desired output port. Remember that the WiiM Pro Plus only outputs audio through one of these options.
  4. Enhance sound quality with customized sound equipment connection:
    • EQ settings
    • Calibration (latency from the WiiM Pro Plus to the speaker)
    • Test music playback
  5. You’re now ready to begin playing audio on your selected output devices.

Notes:

    • Selecting the appropriate audio output port is crucial to ensure sound output. Incorrect selection may result in no audio.

    • You have two ways to control the volume of your system:
      • Utilize your AVR or amplifier for volume control (When the ‘Fixed Volume Output is set on the WiiM Pro Plus).
      • Control volume through the WiiM Home App, but remember to disable fixed volume output for this option.

SUMMARY OF DEVICE CONNECTIONS

  1. If connecting to an audio/video receiver (AVR), DAC, or amplifier, utilize the Line Out, Optical Out, or Coaxial Out port.
    or
  2. When connecting directly to powered speakers or a soundbar, opt for the Line Out, Optical Out, or Coaxial Out port.
