Whether you’re rocking an old turntable or a new streamer, this amp has you covered.

What makes it even cooler? It delivers 67% more power than the WiiM Amp Pro and slides into any setup with ease. Plus, it avoids common pitfalls of other amps, like annoying pop noises when switching tracks. So, if you’re all about better sound without the tech headaches, this one’s for you.

  • 100W of Serious Power: The WiiM Vibelink Amp cranks out 100W per channel at 8 ohms—plenty to drive even demanding speakers with ease.
  • No Wi-Fi Required: Perfect for folks who don’t want an always-connected amp—just pure, powerful sound that works with all your gear.
  • Loaded with Pro-Grade Tech: Includes a high-end ESS ES9038Q2M DAC and advanced heat management for long listening sessions without overheating.

A Compact Amp That Packs a Punch

Let’s get straight to it: the WiiM Vibelink Amp is built to give you serious audio power without overcomplicating your setup. We’re talking 100W per channel at 8 ohms (200W at 4 ohms) through a 2.0-channel Class-D amplifier that’s designed to handle everything from delicate high notes to booming bass. Whether you’re listening to a soft acoustic track or blasting a cinematic soundtrack, this amp has the headroom to deliver every detail without distortion.

Under the hood, it’s powered by an ESS ES9038Q2M DAC—one of the best digital-to-analog converters around—supporting up to 192kHz/24-bit Hi-Res Audio. So, if you’ve got high-resolution files or stream in Hi-Res, you’re getting every ounce of quality.

But what really stands out is how adaptable this thing is. You can hook it up to pretty much anything: streamers like the WiiM Mini, Ultra, or Pro, your favorite turntable, or even older gear. It’s got RCA analog inputs and digital optical and coaxial ports—making it flexible for any setup.

Plus, WiiM added smart features like anti-pop noise design (so you won’t hear annoying pops when changing inputs) and advanced heat dissipation that keeps it cool without needing bulky fans. All of this in a case that’s about the size of the WiiM Ultra, making it easy to tuck into any shelf or entertainment unit.

For audiophiles who’ve been frustrated by limited input options or weak amps that can’t drive serious speakers, the WiiM Vibelink Amp feels like a breath of fresh air. First off, it delivers more power than even the WiiM Amp Pro—about 67% more—so you’re definitely getting a muscle upgrade. Whether you’re using bookshelf speakers or floor-standing monsters, this amp has the juice to push them properly.

What really makes it different though is the focus on sound quality and flexibility. Unlike many powered amps that force you to use their limited streaming tech, this is an amp for folks who already love their streamers. Got a WiiM Mini, Ultra, Pro, or Pro Plus? This amp pairs beautifully with them, but it doesn’t require Wi-Fi. You just get unfiltered, high-res sound.

The built-in DAC is no joke either. The ESS ES9038Q2M chip means your digital files—from CDs to Hi-Res streaming—will come out crystal clear. Plus, it works just as smoothly with analog inputs. Whether it’s an old-school vinyl setup or the newest streamer, this amp adapts without losing quality.

Also, WiiM didn’t skimp on user-friendly touches. The anti-pop noise design ensures seamless switching between sources, and advanced heat management (copper heat pipes, aluminum heatsink, and thermal software) keeps things running cool for long sessions. No more worrying about overheating mid-playlist.
