@SiR thanks for the revert. Do you think the pro version has better streaming facility or DAC or just better connectivity options ?

With the Price of WiiM PRO expected to be around $149 ( 12,000/- ) comparing with Yamaha WXC-50 may not be fair

I have been asked to recommend a streamer (budget around Rs. 50k but no need for analogue outputs) with BT, Wifi and LAN inputs and SPDIF (Coax), AES or I2S output. I found these options assuming an exchange rate of Rs. 90 per $. I don't know where these would be available in India.
$220 (Rs. 20,000?)

And then
There is always the lumin
Even if Yamaha is retailed for the same 25k, still it is not fair to compare it with WiiM PRO ( 12k )
Jokes apart....,
considering the build quality, DAC inside (ESS), better connectivity, Yamaha seems to be better when compared to WiiM PRO
Of course, most of the AV manufacturers are here for squeezing money based on the demand for their product and Yamaha cannot be different from them

Yeah, but doubling the amount within a short period is totally unacceptable.Even if Yamaha is retailed for the same 25k, still it is not fair to compare it with WiiM PRO ( 12k )

I am waiting for the Bremen B2. It looks decent (like a hi-fi component) supports DSD 128 (5.6M) and 256 (11.2M) and has AES/I2S and SPDIF out. https://www.silentangel.com/b2/B2-Quick-Start-Guide.pdf
Otherwise, the WiiM Pro looks like a killer deal at 12-14k.
