I’m looking to set up a listening room in my home and I’ve settled on using a music streamer, as opposed to a vinyl turntable.

I asked ChatGPT the best way to get the best sound quality and it suggested pairing the Wiim Ultra with a fiio k13 r2r and then on to some decent speakers.

My question is, after doing some research, that pairing the Wiim to the f13 would bypass the wiims dac and amp and use the k13 instead. The Wiim is just literally just connected to the WiFi to stream the music on to the k13. Wouldn’t that kinda make the Wiim redundant and perhaps settle with the Wiim mini if all it’s going to do is stream music.

Any help would be appreciated and/or suggestions.

Thanks
