WiiM Pro Music Streamer Receives ‘Roon Ready’ Certification

The WiiM Pro, the versatile network audio streamer launched by Linkplay Technology in March 2023, has now received the coveted Roon Ready certification from Roon Labs. Through Roon Ready, the WiiM Pro expands its already extensive capabilities, which already include AirPlay 2, with a multi-room, multi-user networked audio platform featuring bit-perfect playback, DSD and PCM upsampling, multichannel support and Signal Path display.

Roon, the innovative music management, discovery and streaming platform, announced an impressive array of over 25 new Roon Ready and Roon Tested devices from audio brands such as Arcam, Astell&Kern, Bluesound, JBL, Mission, Rotel and more. Additionally, the brand welcomed 5 new partners, including British loudspeaker pioneers Mission, whose new LX Connect all-in-one hi-fi system is Roon Tested. Other new partners include Argon Audio, Avik, Silent Angel and Zidoo (featuring three 4K UHD media players that are Roon Ready).

Roon Labs is teasing existing and potential new users with its upcoming Roon 1.8 software, the front-end for its unique and powerful music aggregation platform. Designed from early stages to transform the digital music ecosystem, Roon always focused on the interface of its software and the almost tactile experience of selecting, discovering and enjoying music. Now, Roon is ready to introduce a new look and feel, that refines the user experience, improves search, and much more.
