Pro-Ject just launched a tiny box to turn any passive speakers wireless that attaches to the binding posts, and brings them into the Sonos-rivaling WiiM ecosystem — and there's a streamer box for hi-fi amps too… but Apple users should probably pass
Pro-Ject has launched two new devices, the Stream Box E and Wireless Box E, designed to add wireless streaming capabilities to traditional hi-fi systems. The Stream Box E acts as a network streamer for amplifiers, while the Wireless Box E enables wireless connectivity for passive speakers by attaching to binding posts. Both devices run on the WiiM OS, integrating into the growing WiiM ecosystem as a Sonos alternative, though they may not suit Apple-centric users.
- ▪The Stream Box E is a wireless network streamer and digital pre-amp that supports Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, and Qobuz.
- ▪The Wireless Box E connects to passive speakers via binding posts and requires one unit per speaker and a power outlet.
- ▪Both devices run on WiiM OS, integrating into the WiiM ecosystem as part of a Sonos alternative.
- ▪The Stream Box E and Wireless Box E are priced at £159 and £199 respectively.
- ▪Pro-Ject positions these devices as upgrades for classic hi-fi gear, offering greater setup flexibility.
