    WiiM Ultra Firmware v5.2.804553 Update - Jan 14, 2026

    I saw the version and did not read the post. :) Yes of course if the unit is powered off updates or anything else do not work. But why would one do that? YMMV.

    That seems to be a very old FW version...

    WiiM Sound Lite - a user experience

    So… there’s the answer. Thus, as a standalone speaker set it on LR.

    WiiM Sound Lite - a user experience

    Perhaps LR feeds the L highs to the left tweeter and the R highs to the right tweeter. Pure speculation on my part but easy to check.

    WiiM Sound Lite - a user experience

    WiiM released recently the WiiM Sound Lite, a variant of the original WiiM Sound introduced last Summer, minus a display; it also misses in the package a remote control which can be purchased separately. The speaker is sold in the US at Amazon at a current price of $229. My speaker arrived very...

    Too much bass Wiim sub

    Several controls at your disposal: Low pass frequency cutoff - is yours set too high? Change it down from 80Hz to 70, 60 and see if you hear a difference. Sub gain - another parameter to use. EQ of your main system - Set a high pass filter. Change those parameters and check.

    WiiM Ultra Firmware v5.2.804553 Update - Jan 14, 2026

    My Ultra received 5.2.804553 yesterday. All settings were fine, except RAAT set on.

    Little bit sad about my new Sound Lite...Help?

    To the OP: Leave the Sound Lite turned on, playing music or some white noise for a few days. It seems to need ‘break-in’ more than others. Assuming the speaker is some distance from side walls, measure the distance from the center of the speaker to the rear wall - call it L. Calculate the...

    Wiim Ultra with external DAC: what output?

    USB yes, if your DAC had a filtered USB port and better clocks. Given that it doesn't have a USB port I would use coax with a proper 75 Ohm coax cable.

    What products you'd like to see WiiM produce?

    i2S is a lab cable standard. Experts say it is not the best connection between a streamer and a DAC. Asynchronous USB is better, assuming the DAC has better clocks.

    WiiM Amp Ultra Users Experience

    There’s a computer in the streamer driving a WiiM amp but… a class D amp is not a computer and it’s not even a digital circuit.

    WiiM Amp Ultra Users Experience

    This is beyond ridiculous. The Amp Pro runs cool - I consider cool the top surface measuring 110F; yes that is cool. It is an amp, physics at play, efficiency can’t be 100%. Dwelling on this affects one’s mental state and prevents enjoying the device for its purpose — music playback!

    Introducing WiiM Sound: Your Smart Speaker for High-Res, Room-Filling Audio

    Yes, like you said but… a conventional tuner or radio when turned off and on again plays the previously tuned station. That paradigm is not followed here. No big deal.

    Introducing WiiM Sound: Your Smart Speaker for High-Res, Room-Filling Audio

    Yeah it works. What happens is if the remote off is set, when turned on it remains silent. One needs to click play. So 2 clicks. To me it would make more sense to restore the playback prior to turning it off.

    Introducing WiiM Sound: Your Smart Speaker for High-Res, Room-Filling Audio

    I will check that but don’t think it’s the problem, given that other functions work fine. I miss the WiiM Sound. 😩
