Arylic streamer good?

I just got my WIIM Ultra running, and it looks and sounds great, but my only streaming source is my phone, which uses Bluetooth to play music. This means that I can't leave the room (with the phone), or the music stops.
What I want is a high resolution streamer that can connect to Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz, Amazon music, my local NAS music share, and then play that through my WIIM.
Can an Arylic streamer do this, do I need something else?
Don't want to set up another home theater PC or Raspi if I don't have to.
thanks!

    Use the Wiim app? It supports all those things. Get your Wiim and your phone on wifi, you don't need to use Bluetooth..

    As decibel mentioned, the wiim should handle all that and LMS with no problem.

    Yeh, your going like the Wiim Ultra. It will be an insane improvement going from bluetooth phone to the tidal on the Wiim ultra. I did bluetooth to test it when I was setting it up then went to wifi and its been really good. I don't think you even need a preamp. Verify your streaming app of choice's bitrate is set to high. I just picked up a bluesound node 2i or something as well. Got it used and the previous user had the bitrate on the lowest setting so he probably didn't think it sounded great!

    I have 2 of the Wiim minis and the Pro. I'm only using Tidal, and other than occasional connection issues with the Pro, I've been really satisfied with the Wiims. I sent an Arylic unit back because it wasn't a true endpoint - you had to use a subscription app.

    I have the Wiim ultra and looking to add the Wiim Vibe link. The Wiim amp ultra also looks good for an all in one.

    Anyone know if the Wiim amp ultra is better than the vibe link? The power ratings are the same though the amp ultra is supposed to have dual amp chips.

    They both look to have similar specs with PFFB. I didn't realize there was an amp ultra. I have a regular WiiM amp and enjoy it.
