WiiM are well known for their streaming functionality found in all other WiiM products. The Vibelink Amp is a radical departure from that background in that it is only a stereo amplifier, no networking or streaming of any kind. This powerful 100W per channel Class D amplifier aims to provide a flexible solution for audiophiles looking for high-performance amplification without complexity. Designed for passive speakers and existing streamers, the Vibelink Amp delivers approximately 67% more power than the WiiM Amp Pro and features a high-resolution ESS ES9038Q2M DAC supporting up to 192KHz/24-bit audio and supporting variable sample rates and bit depths on its optical and coaxial digital inputs. The Vibelink Amp will be offered in Space Grey and Silver finishes.

Its Class D power amplifier is designed around the TI TPA3255 amplifier chip to deliver 100W per channel (8Ω) or 200W per channel (4Ω). Its advanced Post-Filter Feedback (PFFB) technology, a cutting-edge refinement system that minimizes distortion, provides a quoted THD+N figure of <0.005% with a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of >110dB (A-weighted). Internal premium components include the high-resolution ESS ES9038Q2M DAC supporting up to 192kHz/24-bit audio, and six TI OPA1612 op-amps. Connectivity is available either digitally or by pure analog with no internal digital conversions.

According to WiiM, the Vibelink Amp is engineered for long-term reliability and implements advanced heat dissipation features, including; copper heat pipes, a large aluminum heatsink, and a heat-spreading case, all preventing overheating and maintaining optimal performance. Physically it size (200x200x63mm) matches the WiiM Ultra, allowing for easy stacking within the WiiM product range.

Control is available using the minimalistic front panel volume knob and source select button, no remote is included.
