    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    Linkplay Technology has launched the WiiM Pro Plus, a successor to the company’s impressive WiiM Pro audio streamer that’s designed to easily modernize your existing audio equipment without breaking the bank.

    The $219 WiiM Pro Plus is available now on Amazon, providing an easy and affordable alternative to complicated Raspberry Pi hacks or expensive Sonos gear.

    The WiiM Pro Plus features a built-in AKM 4493SEQ DAC and a TI Burr-Brown Audio PCM1861 ADC that can achieve up to 192kHz / 32-bit digital output when converting analog audio from devices like record players, MP3 players, and TVs.

    The company claims that the WiiM Pro Plus provides “audiophile-grade” music with “enhanced audio quality.”

    Decades-old audio equipment like speakers or turntables can be connected to the WiiM Pro Plus system via Wi-Fi, ethernet, RCA, TOSLINK, or Coax.

    The WiiM Pro Plus supports Chromecast Audio, AirPlay 2, Alexa Cast, and Spotify Connect, alongside streaming services that include Tidal (and Tidal Connect), Amazon Music, Deezer, iHeartRadio, and more.
