external dac

Hello everyone, I've been using the Mini for about a year now and am really happy with it. The device is connected to active speakers via fiber optic cable at 24/96. Everything has always worked great, but for about a month now, the device has been losing its connection to the router almost...

I've got a weird bug with the display on my eversolo dac z8. Whenever I first turn on my dac, amp and wiim, if it's connected by usb the display on my eversolo will always show 768kHz, no matter which track I play. The only way to clear it, and show the correct sample frequency is to play a...

My chain: Tidal (via ethernet) - > wiim ultra -> USB -> Eversolo DAC Z8 -> xlr -> smsl h400 headphone amp. I use the wiim as a streamer only. Using (100%) fixed volume to my external DAC, the VU meter on the wiim ultra is always pegging into the red, almost maxed out. This is without me using...

Hello, fellow Wiim users, i have been tinkering around to use my pc as a source connected to the Wiim Ultra, i have used the rca input as well as a usb to toslink adapter-https://www.cubilux.com/products/usb-to-s-pdif-transmitter, however there is a very noticeable difference in sound quality...

This question is directed at those who CAN hear an improvement when using an external DAC: Can you also hear differences depending which digital connection you choose? Experienced any reliability/dropout issues that might cause you to choose a sonically inferior connection in favor of stability?

New to the forum here. Thinking of pulling the trigger on Wiim products and need some help or input on an idea. I don’t see a wiim contact line for sales so hoping you guys can answer here! Like many of you I’ve seen on here I am trying to integrate home theater with hifi and I’m very excited...

I was just about to buy a Wiim ultra until I came across the following problem: We need to connect our large active speakers via an external DAC to the Wiim toslink output and then set the output volume in the Wiim at %100 (fixed volume). However, we also want to connect desktop active monitors...

Is anyone able to explain how the WiiM's deal with adjustments in the digital domain (volume, room correction, EQ)? That is, do they leave the original file in tact and send it to the DAC with a sort of xml or sidecar file attached with instructions of how to adjust the original file or does it...

Hi, complete newbie here, be gentle with me :) I recently purchased a WIIM Amp to replace a Pioneer AV Amp. Great swap and I am so pleased with the WIIM. I have a CD player connected to the WIIM Amp via RCA and a turntable connected to a Sonos Connect gen 2 also via RCA. I then have an optical...

Got my Ultra yesterday and have installed it in my primary system. It's replaced an Innuos ZenMini Mk3 which now sits on my secondary system (albeit only really acting as a CD ripper and music library as the secondary system is based around a Naim Uniti Atom). Amplification is via a Naim NAIT 50...

I've got a ZA3 in stereo mode (2nd unit arriving tomorrow to make mono) and man is its output loud. My chain looks like this: WiiM Ultra > DAC via USB > ZA3 via XLR controlled by Roon I've got the AMP volume at 100% and control the volume via WiiM Ultra (Roon). Even at volume level 1 out of 100...

Hi, New to the forum and my first post. I'am looking to purchase the WiiM Ultra and Vibelink Amp. Using the usb on the ultra for an HDD for my ever increasing music library. I'am yet to decide on a music streaming service to use. I have read reviews and comments on people using the SMSL PO100...

I've had the Ultra for several months. All was well. No issues, using Amazon Music. Recently got a new CD transport so haven't used Ultra in about 2 weeks. Turned on today and all of a sudden I am getting clipping and distortion from certain songs (seems like songs that differ from selected...

I'm interested in the Ultra for use with an external DAC that uses a CM6631A as a USB to I2S bridge. Is it supported? Thanks.

I just received my Wiim amp Pro and after hooking everything up I unfortunately noticed three problems 1. a very annoying buzzing sound when the HDMI cable is plugged in 2. If the HDMI is connected to my TV (Which I also use as a 3rd monitor in this setup) I suddenly have a gigantic input lag...

Hi Could the wiim ultra be paired with a cd transport like the cambridge audio cxc? Would i need another dac? The setup i am having in mind is : rega p1+ (rca) cambridge audio cxc transport (optical) tv (hdmi arc) connected to wiim ultra>fosi za3> kef ls50/q concerto meta. would the wiim...

I connected exterrnal DAC Fiio M17 with USB or coaxial. Every time when I play/pause/next track from Tidal or another source, I hear pops and cracks sound. I tried set fade in fade out effect in the audio settings. This also happens when the WiiM wakes up from standby or goes to sleep. I...

Adding USB audio out was a really great thing. It would be even better to enable a fixed volume setting for USB out. I connect the Wiim Amp to a Topping DX 3 pro+, which has its own volume control. A different volume setting for every output would prevent the speakers from blasting at full...
