    SMSL SU-1 DAC with Ultra?

    When anyone in my family turns on the Apple TV with one button, it triggers (via HDMI CEC) our TLC TV to turn on. Our TV then tells the Wiim ultra to turn on via HDMI ARC/CEC, the Wiim Ultra then tells the audiophonics 12V trigger to turn on 2 Ayiyma A07 Max in mono + a Linear power supply that...

    SMSL SU-1 DAC with Ultra?

    No the USB is always on, my SU-1 is still on when WiiM goes to sleep mode. WiiM confirmed to me a couple of months ago that it was indeed an bug and promised a correction. No correction yet even though several new SW releases have passed. My customer service case is still open. I was tired of...

    SMSL SU-1 DAC with Ultra?

    What sounded best was WiiM pro plus with SU1-1, both feeded with 5V linear power supply. You are correct that I prefer AKM DAC, but that doesn’t mean that ESS saber chip is bad. I would say that this probably can be different if you have ”warm” sounding speakers. ESS is more ”clinical” in sound...

    SMSL SU-1 DAC with Ultra?

    I had the WiiM pro plus ( sold it to a friend a couple of weeks ago) and the SMSL SU-1. Now I have WiiM Ultra and SMSL SU-1. I also have a SMSL C100 which is basically a SU-1 with a remote, display and BT connection. Stand alone and sound wise, my experience is that the WiiM pro plus sounds...

    SMSL SU-1 DAC with Ultra?

    Thanks for your comment. I’m not the only one mentioning this, there is another thread about this, the lower volume issue happens via USB ( when it happens) it is resolved when you reboot the ultra without touching anything else. I know how volume works in digital or analogue domain, so what I...

    SMSL SU-1 DAC with Ultra?

    Agree, connected the SU-1 to the Ultra this week, started with the USB out from ultra, sometimes the sound was very low and I needed to restart the ultra. I got tired of this intermittent behavior. Changed to coax out to coax in on SU-1 vow! the sound compared to the ultra was really better...

    Optical in stops working after stand by mode.

    Interesting, so the root cause is actually a “feature” pausing the optical in when going in to sleep mode makes no sense if you need to push the play button or switching input. Hopefully they come up with a fix for this. As I comment earlier, I now run a SMSL C100 DAC with optical in from the TV...

    Optical in stops working after stand by mode.

    No, I got tired of waiting, so I bought a SMSL C100 external DAC for 100 usd. Now the WiiM is just a streamer in to the DAC via Coaxial input and I am running the optical input from the TV to the smsl. It works perfectly and also the sound was a little bit more improved. The SMSL remote also...

    Optical in stops working after stand by mode.

    I understand the workarounds, but… there are several users in the family and not all are in to audio tech or have the wiim app installed or know how to switch input source and back to optical because of this error.

    12V trigger on WiiM Pro: why does it wait for music?

    I agree, this is how this function should work!

    Optical in stops working after stand by mode.

    Already tried that, no difference. Either you have to have the WiiM on 24/7/365 as soon as you turn it of with the red button on the remote and turn it on. Audio via the optical in does not work. As soon as you change to any other input source in the app and back to optical the sound starts to...
