I have a WiiM Pro that I'm using to connect my TV via Toslink to my Parasound Hint integrated, as well as stream Qobos and Amazon Music via WiFi. Overall, the Wiim Pro works well via Toslink, and the ESS Sabre DAC in the Parasound is highly regarded from what I read. That said, the WiiM Pro will occasionally reboot for no apparent reason. Yes, there is often a reboot when an update gets pushed out but it also reboots outside of an update as well. I initially purchased it to see if I would actually use a music streamer without spending much money. It has exceeded my expectations in many ways with only a few nits to pick of little consequence. However, the rebooting thing is starting to annoy me as it sometimes happens while watching a program or movie.
Looking at several other moderately priced streamers, including the Bluesound Node, I'm finding them lacking inputs or sketchy performance. However, there is one that seems interesting to me, the Cambridge Audio CXN V2. It has sufficient inputs, mainly Toslink in/out, and balanced outputs should I want to listen through the Wolfson DACs. (Which I might.) They dropped the price from $1,299 to $999 recently. I've seen the reviews and measurements on both pieces and they both appear to do well via Toslink.
Is anyone using the CXN V2 and what do you think about it? Worthwhile upgrade or not?
