The first dedicated smart speaker from a brand that built its reputation with award-winning streamers and streaming amplifiers, the WiiM Sound combines a \u003cstrong\u003e100W peak 2-way acoustic system\u003c\/strong\u003e with a 4-inch paper-cone woofer and dual 1-inch silk-dome tweeters, \u003cstrong\u003e24-bit \/ 192kHz Hi-Res audio playback\u003c\/strong\u003e, AI RoomFit automatic room correction, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and a \u003cstrong\u003e1.8-inch round touch display\u003c\/strong\u003e showing album art, track info, and on-device controls. Finished in minimalist white with a fabric and glass-over-polycarbonate body, the WiiM Sound supports Google Cast, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, DLNA, Roon, LMS, and Amazon Alexa Cast, alongside stereo pairing and multi-room grouping across the full WiiM ecosystem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePremium 2-Way Acoustic Architecture and 100W Peak Output\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe WiiM Sound uses a purpose-designed 2-way driver array tuned independently for each frequency band. A 4-inch long-throw paper-cone woofer handles the low and mid frequencies at 50W, while two 1-inch silk-dome tweeters share the remaining 50W to deliver smooth, extended high-frequency reproduction with minimal harshness. A precision crossover at 2.4kHz keeps each driver operating within its optimal range, minimising intermodulation distortion and preserving detail across the full 50Hz to 20kHz frequency response. The system supports Hi-Res audio up to 24-bit \/ 192kHz for gapless playback, a specification that exceeds the 24\/48 ceiling of most competing smart speakers in the same category. Enclosure material combines polycarbonate, glass fibre, and fabric to balance rigidity, resonance control, and visual refinement in a cylindrical form factor measuring 146 x 146 x 194mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAI RoomFit, 1.8-Inch Touch Display, and WiiM Home App\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAI RoomFit is WiiM's automatic room correction system, accessed with a single tap from the front display or the WiiM Home App. Using microphone measurement from a smartphone running the WiiM Home App on iOS or Android, AI RoomFit analyses the acoustic characteristics of the room and speaker placement, then applies an optimised equalisation profile to correct for boundary effects, reflections, and room modes. The result is a more balanced tonal presentation suited to the specific listening position and environment. Independent EQ settings are stored separately for Wi-Fi and Ethernet playback, Bluetooth, and the 3.5mm Aux input, allowing fine-tuning for each source independently. Beyond AI RoomFit, the 1.8-inch round glass-covered touch display allows direct on-device control of playback, volume, source selection, Quick EQ, presets, multi-room groups, and device settings without requiring a phone. The display shows album art, track and artist information, VU meters, time and date in standby, and user-customisable wallpapers. The included WiiM Voice Remote 2 Lite adds one-press playback, volume, and skip control alongside push-to-talk voice input for Alexa-compatible operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHi-Res 24-bit \/ 192kHz Playback:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports gapless Hi-Res audio at up to 24\/192kHz over Wi-Fi and Ethernet, exceeding the resolution ceiling of most competing smart speakers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100W Peak 2-Way Driver System:\u003c\/strong\u003e A 4-inch long-throw paper-cone woofer (50W) plus dual 1-inch silk-dome tweeters (2x25W) with a 2.4kHz crossover for natural mids, smooth highs, and room-filling dynamics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAI RoomFit Room Correction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automatic acoustic calibration adapts EQ to the specific room and placement, with separate profiles stored for each input type.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1.8-Inch Round Touch Display:\u003c\/strong\u003e Glass-covered high-resolution touch display shows album art, track info, and gives direct on-device control of playback, EQ, sources, presets, and groups with no phone required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWi-Fi 6E Connectivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tri-band 802.11 b\/g\/n\/ax on 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz bands for stable, high-bandwidth wireless streaming with reduced interference compared to Wi-Fi 5.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBluetooth 5.3 (Receiver and Transmitter):\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports SBC, AAC, and LC3 codecs for flexible wireless input and output within a 10-metre range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100 Mbps Ethernet Input:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wired network connection for the most stable and interference-free streaming performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3.5mm Aux Input:\u003c\/strong\u003e Accepts a wired analogue signal from any source with a standard 3.5mm output, with a separate EQ profile stored for this input.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBroad Streaming Platform Support:\u003c\/strong\u003e Works natively with Google Cast, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, Amazon Alexa Cast, DLNA, Roon, and LMS, plus internet radio and the WiiM Home App.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStereo and Multi-Room Pairing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pair two WiiM Sound units for true left\/right stereo, add a WiiM Sub Pro for deeper bass extension, or integrate into a 5.1 home cinema setup as a centre or surround channel with compatible WiiM components.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWiiM Voice Remote 2 Lite Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e One-press playback, skip, and volume control plus push-to-talk voice for Alexa operation via the remote's built-in microphone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWiiM Home App:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full system control on iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Apple TV, and Google TV, including streaming service integration, EQ customisation, multi-room grouping, and OTA firmware updates.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUniversal Power Supply:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100-240V AC input for global compatibility, with energy-efficient standby and firmware updates delivered over the air.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePeak Power Output\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e100W total (woofer 50W;

It supports Google Cast, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, DLNA, Roon, LMS, and Alexa Cast, with stereo pairing and multi-room grouping across the WiiM ecosystem. The WiiM Voice Remote 2 Lite is included in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the WiiM Sound compare to the Sonos Era 100 or Apple HomePod 2?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe WiiM Sound competes directly with the Sonos Era 100 and Apple HomePod 2 but differentiates itself in several meaningful ways. Unlike the Sonos Era 100, the WiiM Sound supports Hi-Res audio up to 24-bit \/ 192kHz compared to Sonos's 24\/48 ceiling, and works on both iOS and Android for AI RoomFit calibration, whereas Sonos TruePlay is iOS-only. Unlike the Apple HomePod 2, the WiiM Sound is platform-agnostic and supports Google Cast, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, and Qobuz Connect natively, while the HomePod 2 is built primarily around AirPlay 2 and Apple Music. The WiiM Sound does not currently support AirPlay 2, which is a consideration for listeners whose primary streaming service is Apple Music. The included WiiM Voice Remote 2 Lite is a further point of distinction, as neither Sonos nor Apple includes a physical remote with their equivalent speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the WiiM Sound be used in a stereo pair or multi-room setup?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, two WiiM Sound units can be paired for true left\/right stereo operation. The WiiM Sound can also be grouped with other WiiM speakers, streaming amplifiers, and WiiM streamer products in a whole-home multi-room system managed through the WiiM Home App. It is compatible with WiiM multi-room groups as well as Google Cast and Alexa multi-room groups. For home cinema applications, the WiiM Sound can be configured as a centre channel or rear surround speaker when combined with compatible WiiM components, and a WiiM Sub Pro can be added for deeper bass extension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is AI RoomFit and how does it work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAI RoomFit is WiiM's automatic room calibration system that measures the acoustic response of the listening environment and applies a compensating equalisation curve to correct for room-specific coloration. The process is initiated from the 1.8-inch touch display or the WiiM Home App, and uses the microphone on a nearby smartphone running the WiiM Home App to capture acoustic measurements. The system then generates an optimised EQ profile stored on the speaker for that specific placement. Separate EQ profiles are maintained for Wi-Fi and Ethernet streaming, Bluetooth, and the 3.5mm Aux input, so room correction and source-specific preferences are preserved independently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere can I buy the WiiM Sound in Toronto or Canada?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe WiiM Sound is available at Vinyl Sound in Toronto, Canada. Vinyl Sound serves customers across Canada and can assist with questions about setup, multi-room configuration, and integrating the WiiM Sound with other WiiM or third-party components in any home audio system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the WiiM Sound support Apple AirPlay or Apple Music?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe WiiM Sound does not currently support AirPlay 2. Apple Music can still be streamed to the WiiM Sound via Bluetooth from any Apple device, or through Google Cast if using the Apple Music app on an Android device or Google TV. For listeners whose primary source is Apple Music on an iPhone, Bluetooth remains available as a fallback, though it does not provide the same seamless multi-room or high-resolution experience as a native protocol connection. WiiM has not confirmed whether AirPlay 2 support will be added in a future firmware update.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the WiiM Sound work with Spotify, TIDAL, and Qobuz?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the WiiM Sound supports Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, and Qobuz Connect natively. These protocols allow the streaming service app on a phone, tablet, or computer to hand off playback directly to the WiiM Sound, so the speaker streams the audio independently over the network rather than relaying it from the device. This results in more stable playback, lower latency, and higher quality than Bluetooth streaming from the same apps. Google Cast, Amazon Music, DLNA, Roon, and LMS are also supported alongside these native service connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the WiiM Sound be set up without the WiiM Home App?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInitial setup of the WiiM Sound requires the WiiM Home App on a compatible iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Apple TV, or Google TV device to connect the speaker to a Wi-Fi network and complete the guided first-use experience shown on the 1.8-inch touch display. Once configured, the speaker operates independently and can be controlled from the touch display, the included WiiM Voice Remote 2 Lite, or through compatible casting apps such as Spotify, TIDAL, and Qobuz without needing the WiiM Home App open on a device.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiim","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":49041183310076,"sku":null,"price":429.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White","offer_id":49041183342844,"sku":null,"price":429.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0116\/1773\/0617\/files\/WiiMSoundSmartSpeaker_1.png?v=1777521176","url":"https:\/\/vinylsound.ca\/products\/wiim-sound-smart-speaker","provider":"Vinyl Sound Canada Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
