We have a small production shipping end of Feb.  Bigger production mid March.  This is CONFIRMED as we have received and tested the production samples.

Is there a link to read the specs?
if the first shipments will start in February .... let's say that the machine is already final .... or not?

It is final. But as always, we work on the manual and product page last (no information available until Taiwan office and factory opens for business). The factory is still closed for CNY holidays until end of the Jan.  WR-2 will probably ship in the 3rd or 4th week of Feb.
All the features you need to know are listed on the packaging:

I tried zooming in to read the specs, but the resolution of that image is not good enough, and the image gets blurry quickly. Is there a digital output for this?

Thanks, -dGB

So that connector on the top left (near the left antenna) looks like it says "(Something) Out". Can't tell what though -- this is like studying blurry photos from the Warren Commission.

It's 'sub out'.

Hopefully this is clear. The features are pretty much like other high end streamers. 
A neat feature is the bi-directional bluetooth aptX HD for people who only use wireless headphones.

I have to check the spec for the "pen drive", we just the term just to indicate that it is a portable drive.

The coaxial USB-C can be connected to Nuprime Extension port for power and data.  You can buy USB-C to USB-A cable on Amazon.

How can I use the spdif output plugged into the usb type c output if this connector is for input power? Thank you.

This USB-C port with power and SPDIF can be connected to Nuprime's DAC or integrated amps that directly supply the power and SPDIF input.
It is labelled Extension Port on IDA-8, DAC-8, DAC-9X, AMG DAC etc.

Or WR-2 can be powered by the 5V power supply from Nuprime STA-100 when used as a set.

Hi Eugenio
I hope that in this release it handles 24/192 also on the spdif output  :wink:

The SPDIF output is limited to 16-bit/44.1kHz, same as re-streaming limit, to be compatible with Stream Mini and Mini DAC.
If you want higher output, go with Stream-9.
