In our latest WiiM Talks series, we sat down with the Product Manager behind the Vibelink Amp to discuss its design philosophy, technical innovations, and future impact on WiiM’s ecosystem. The Vibelink Amp prioritizes pure sound reproduction, featuring premium components like the ESS 9039Q2M DAC and TI TPA3255 amplifier chips, delivering clean, dynamic audio without unnecessary extras.
