Yes, this is a good idea.

dominikz, you have PM :)

Thanks for this explanation.

You can change the toslink output resolution in the Wiim app , and still select and use the internal 9038 dac line level ( with the toslink output unused and turned off )

It’s the toslink output resolution setting in the WiiM app that apparently ( and strange ) also limits the performance of the inbuilt dac, - if using Ultras toslink input as a standalone dac . The default is 16/48, should be set at 24/96. It would be nice to see more measurements of Ultras...

If you are using the toslink output from a CD player into the Ultra, or a television toslink output and use the Ultra as a dac , you have some issues with the default setting 16/48 . The sinad according to Amirm is only about -85 dB if you look at the graph. If you select 24/96 this issue goes...

Yes

As I understand it , the 16 bit 48kHz resolution setting is not perfect when using the toslink input and the inbuilt dac of the Ultra. There is noise in the signal , and that noise apparently goes away by using the 24bit 96kHz setting in the WiiM app.

Sorry, youre right. Its the output resolution on the WiiM meny that should be set at 24bit 96Khz. I have corrected it

As a wrote somewhere else, I would like the ability to select different crossover slopes for the main speakers/subwoofer and a dual stereo sub out . Instead of only offering 24 db/ Linkwitz Riley lowpass and high pass it would be very nice to have the ability to select 12dB (main speakers ) and...

Its important to , in the WiiM meny select 24 bit 96 kHz ( the default toslink output resolution is 16 bit 48 kHz ) . Theres a bug ( or was? ) that makes the ultra used as a dac sounding worse than it should when 16bit/48 is selected. Amirs review at ASR shows this with 16bit 48kHz selected in...

It would be interesting if you could compare the spdif out ( without reclocker ) and USB out ( with reclocker ).

You misunderstand me completely, I ˋm on your side. But if you dont wanna write about your system thats fine. If it sounds better, it is better nomatter what the measurements tells us. (Yes, some of the ASR fundamentalists are annoying, but not all of them.) I guess you also understand that a...

Tell me more about your system , what external dac are you using, and your speakers and amplifier ?
