Looking for a new streamer for my Diner-Fi

[Jasonovich]

I have a neat little setup in my dining room, the only thing that is missing is a DAC/Streamer, I was thinking of moving my WiiM Pro Plus from my PC Desktop to the diner but felt, ah let sleepy dogs lie.
I came across WiiM's new streamer Eversolo-Rose-ish touch screen WiiM Ultra, this is due to be released in May and I'm hoping LinkPlay doesn't depart from its modus operandi, "Sell Cheap" but let's wait and see.

Those of you who might be interested, do check the link below. Let me have your thoughts, I think it's going to be awesome

WiiM Ultra Streamer: What We Know So Far

WiiM teases a new flagship network music streamer and preamplifier for digital and analog sources. Will it be affordable?

Update:

Love the premium aluminium case. What stood out for me, is the phono feature, an interesting addition to the preamp, it appears, WiiM is looking to tap into vinyl market which has seen some revival.

Should have gone to Specsavers!

Bound to be their most expensive product yet - but still likely cost less than rivals' equivalents.
If there are any equivalents....looks like being a 'jack of all trades' even has a phono preamp.
(Bet your life the reviewers will pick up on any 'trades' it doesn't master) .

300 quid guaranteed.

300 quid guaranteed.

Minimum (could be nearly double).

Minimum (could be nearly double).

If it's double then it would be head-on with the Bluesound Powernode Edge. And that would be a hard sell, even without DSP.

Yes I'm hoping it's the three and the two zero's, otherwise I'll be transplanting from my other systems, either the WiiM or the SMSL.

I try and avoid (touch) screens, so probably not something for me. But it does look the business.

Question when WiiM go "lego" and allow you to customise the whole build inside the WiiM chasis?

Someone left me Lego for Valentine's day. I don't know what to make of it.

That popped up on my news feed on my phone yesterday. I didn't click the article but thought, another product by them. I am so tempted by their products but as I have CCA's it would just be overkill. If I didn't have the CCA's I think I would have bought a couple of WiiM pro.
