Origin Acoustics announced a strategic partnership with WiiM, a technology brand that provides smart home experiences through accessible AI-connected products. Origin Acoustics and WiiM have joined forces to co-develop WiiM Professional CI Series products, designed to cater to both residential and commercial custom installations.

WiiM’s expertise in streaming audio software and hardware has led to the success of several audiophile-grade music streamers — WiiM Mini, WiiM Pro and its latest, the WiiM Pro Plus. The team at WiiM, comprising hardware and software engineers and industry veterans, has proven the versatility, user-friendliness, affordability and premium quality and reliability of its technology platform.

Origin Acoustics’ customer-first approach has enabled the company to provide insightful direction to WiiM, resulting in the co-development of the brand’s first-ever Professional Smart Audio products designed specifically for custom integration in residential and commercial environments. Each product within the new WiiM Professional CI series will feature audiophile-grade quality, user-friendliness, continuous support, compatibility with various control platforms and profitability for dealers.

Four new WiiM Professional CI Series products will be debuted at CEDIA Expo 2023, within Origin Acoustics’ booth #2133. These include the following:

• WiiM CI MOD S1 single-zone streamer
• WiiM CI MOD S4 four-zone streamer
• WiiM CI MOD A-110 single-zone 110W amplifier
• WiiM MOD CI A1-60 single-zone 60W amplifier

Noteworthy integration features encompass audiophile-grade ESS DACs, rack-mountable form factors, audio inputs and subwoofer lineups. The inaugural batch of these products is scheduled to ship by the end of 2023.
