WiiM has unveiled its first multiroom speaker, the Sound, which includes a touchscreen (unlike the Sonos Era 100, one of the best Wi-Fi wireless speakers) and voice assistant control.
The WiiM Sound follows the company's popular line of music streamers and promises 100 watts of power, a 1.8-inch high-resolution touchscreen and can be paired for stereo sound. The company also announced a compatible Sub Pro subwoofer with an 8-inch driver.
The WiiM Sound speaker has a 1.8-inch touchscreen.
The speaker, which resembles the Bose Home Speaker 500Â or Apple HomePod, includes a 4-inch woofer and dual-balanced mode radiator tweeters, plus support for 24-bit/192 kHz high-resolution streaming. It offers compatibility with Chromecast built-in, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, DLNA and Alexa Cast. In addition to Wi-Fi 6E, the speaker also includes Bluetooth 5.3 and Ethernet.
The WiiM Sound can be controlled via the WiiM Home application, a Google Home speaker or an Amazon Echo. Pairing WiiM's $40 Voice Remote with the Sound will give you hands-free Alexa control.
In my testing, WiiM's $149 Pro and $329 Ultra offer excellent sound quality for a more affordable price than competitors such as the $449 Sonos Port. While pricing of the Sound is not yet available, I'm anticipating it will cost between $200 and $300. The speaker will be available in Q3 2025 on Amazonand select retailers.
