"The Wiim Sound features two full-range tweeters and one 4-inch long-throw woofer, making for strong bass and highs, with mids that don't need to compete to be heard. I often listened to the Wiim Sound at very low volume, and the bass was ever-present. At a louder volume, you'll feel the counter or table shaking."
"Due to its size and acoustic design, the Wiim Sound is most comparable to the Sonos Era 100, but the Wiim Sound produces a more pronounced bass response. The Wiim Sound supports up to 24-bit/192 kHz, a higher fidelity promise than its competitors."
"The Wiim Home companion app houses your speaker's EQ settings, serves as your hub for music streaming services, and lets you easily toggle source inputs. You can also create playlists in the app using tracks from the available platforms."
The smart speaker market is evolving with increased focus on multi-room streaming, displays, and audio fidelity. The Wiim Sound enters this competitive space alongside established players like Sonos Era 100, Amazon Echo Show, and Apple HomePod 2. The speaker features two full-range tweeters and a 4-inch woofer delivering pronounced bass and clear mids, supporting up to 24-bit/192 kHz audio. It includes a small touchscreen display and sleek design but requires the included remote to activate voice assistant features. The Wiim Home companion app manages EQ settings, music streaming services, and source inputs. While offering strong sound quality and robust app functionality, the $300 price point raises questions about value compared to more established brands.
