About this item
Experience Seamless Streaming with AirPlay 2 and Chromecast - Your stereo system is about to get a major upgrade. With WiiM Pro Plus, you can transform your stereo into AirPlay 2 enabled speakers, streaming your favorite music from iOS and Mac devices or TV audio from Apple TV. Easily Connect your Apple devices to your preferred audio devices. Also, enjoy Chromecast streaming music, TV audio, podcasts, and more from hundreds of Chromecast-enabled apps to multiple audio devices simultaneously.
High-Resolution Audio, Gapless Playback - WiiM Pro Plus allows you to wirelessly stream up to 24-bit/192 kHz music on both digital and analog outputs. Enjoy music without interruptions and experience bit-perfect output via its digital optical or Coax output. While not all music services offer 24-bit/192 kHz content, Amazon Music Ultra HD, Qobuz, and your own music library can support this high-res output. TIDAL Connect users can enjoy TIDAL Master with MQA core decoder up to 24-bit/96kHz.
Stream Directly from Your Favorite Music Apps - Stream music directly from Spotify, TIDAL, or Amazon Music app using Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, or Alexa. This offers superior audio quality and a longer working range compared to traditional Bluetooth or AirPlay 2 receivers, freeing up your mobile device for other tasks. This feature is compatible with Spotify Free/Premium users, TIDAL's HiFi and Master quality (with MQA), and Amazon Prime Music.
Seamless Multiroom Streaming - With WiiM Pro Plus, enjoy the convenience of streaming music across the entire home using a variety of smart speakers, including AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Amazon Alexa, or a proprietary multiroom function. Create groups with other AirPlay 2, Google Home, or Alexa devices like Echo, HomePod, or even link multiple WiiM devices for synchronized playback on multiple audio devices simultaneously.
Enhance Your Audio Journey with Voice and Preset Features - Utilize the remote to control your device using voice commands via Alexa, without needing an additional Alexa device. Execute actions such as play, pause, song skipping, volume control, and audio muting with ease. Launch your preset content with a single tap. The WiiM Pro Plus is also compatible with Google and Siri Voice Assistants, allowing you to control your device using voice commands through your phone, HomePod, or Google Home.

I heard good reviews on this and want to know if this will help my setup.
I have a very good set of Goldenear speakers and Arcam AVR30 AVR generally used for TV.
When I want to hear music, I play that app on my phone and listen via BT.
What would be the advantages of the wiim?
Also - what add'l benefits would there be for the wiim pro plus?
TIA
