    Loudspeaker protection

    I am familiar with class AB amplifier design and repair/maintenance. One thing almost all the "vintage" or even modern legacy brand audio amps have are relays that hold off the connection to the speakers until the power supply and amp have stabilized. Those relay are connected to circuits that...

    Grounding issue Amp Ultra with LG G4

    Hello, I've recently bought the WiiM Amp Ultra and connected it to my LG G4 (via HDMI) and Triangle Color Colonne floorstanders. The TV is also linked to an Apple TV through HDMI. All devices are plugged into the same grounded wall outlet, which I recently tested with a socket tester. Of the...

    Upgrade to Wiim amp ultra or to get a subwoofer

    I recently purchased a WiiM amp from a friend and I've plugged Wharfedale Diamond 12.2 for my living room setup. I've had this whole setup just for few weeks now and I love it so far though I feel for my room, the bass is a little bit underwhelming. Maybe I need to tweak the settings, not sure...

    Missing DNS settings

    The app when connecting to my amp ultra doesn't have the option to enable or disable "use preferred DNS server" so I've had to set this by setting a manual IP address. Is this intentional behaviour?

    Amp Ultra, screen off setting

    There seems to be an issue with this setting where it turns back on for volume changes, or when a new track starts playing, and then it stays on until standby mode activates. I don't mind other than if I want to use it in a dark room it'd be nice to have the screen more off for that listening...

    Jump from Amp to Amp Ultra?

    I mostly see discussions on the benefits (or lack thereof) of making a switch from the Amp Pro to the Amp Ultra, but I currently have the original Wiim Amp and am considering making the jump to the Amp Ultra. Have any of you done some comparisons between the two or made the same switch? What...

    I'm definitely going to buy a WiiM. But which one?

    Hi, quick newbie question. I have a Yamaha RX-A1080 amplifier + Elipson Planet L Gold Edition + Subwoofer My first idea was to connect a Wiim Ultra to it to enjoy YouTube Music. My second idea was that it might be a good idea to invest in a WiiM Amp Ultra for possible future upgrades or a mobile...

    WiiM AMP Ultra + Pono(rega RP1) makes very LOW outputs

    Hello, rega RP1's out to WiiM AMP Ultra's line-in. RP1 uses MM cartridge, then connected directly. No doubt simple. But this connecting makes very low outputs. I've no idea what's wrong and where to dig. RP1 + MM Pono AMP runs pretty well. Here, I use exactly same speaker systems for two...

    Setting up my 5.1 (4.1 really) correctly.

    So, I bought a couple of Wiim Amp Ultras last week and I have one in my living room for TV and movies as well as music. My previous setup was a Sonos Amp, which had two play 1s as the surrounds. In the sonos app I was able to specify that I wanted the surround speakers to be off when the...

    Wiim Amp Ultra power cord AWG?

    Hi all. Does anyone know the AWG of the stock power cord of the amp Ultra? I am thinking of upgrading the power cord to an Audioquest NRG X3. But the AQ is "only" 16 AWG. I would not want to go smaller than the stock power cord.

    New to Wiim (Wiim amp ultra) and loving it!

    Hi all! I just bought my first Wiim product 2 days ago; the Amp ultra. Wow, what a machine! I have owned a lot of expensive audio gear over the years. I have a seperate dedicated streamer/DAC and integrated from a reputable high end company. This combo is many, many times more expensive than the...

    Bananas / Speaker plugs supplied with AmpUltra

    Are those available anywhere? I‘ve grown quite fond of them. Simple but effective and low profile. I‘ve looked around and found some that looked the same on Amazon. So I ordered them (approx. EUR 12 for 8pcs.) But they are far from being the same. They had the flexible flares just as a cage...

    Hi everyone, first time poster here! I currently have the WiiM ultra which I’ve enjoyed for the last 12 months - such a great product! I currently run it through a 90s Yamaha stereo amplifier as I’m pretty old school when it comes to eq etc. I love the variable loudness on the Yamaha and the...

    What speakers do you use for your AMPlified Wiims?

    For my desktop righ, I used to have Wiim Pro, connected to an SMSL M500 MKII DAC, to an SMSL A300 Amp powering QAcoustics 3030i. The speakers, although bulky for a desktop rig, are chosen for its bass capabilities and its tweeter shortcomings was resolved by the ESS9038PRO DAC Chip. Wifey gave...

    Best practice for creating a local library: DLNA? Folder structure?

    Hi all. I'm planning to buy a WiiM Amp Ultra. I have a local MP3 library ripped from CDs stored on a NAS, but I want to recreate it in lossless FLAC to use with the new WiiM. I thought I would ask the community for guidance before I get too far along. As I am starting from scratch, what is the...

    Wiim Ultra setup. A mix of old and new.

    Wiim Ultra feeding a 1960s QUAD 22 preamplifier and QUAD II power amplifiers (all valve/tube). The loudspeakers are 1976 JVC Victor FB-5 two way horn loaded units 96dB sensitivity. I could run the Wiim straight into the power amplifiers. I'll try this when I rebuild the preamp. But it all...

    WiiM Amp Ultra as AVR lip sync

    I really wanted to use the Ultra Amp as an AVR so that I could have wireless surrounds but the minimum 70ms audio delay makes it IMO unusable for TV/Movies. Has anyone found a solution? I've been trying to find a device that can introduce video delay but so far I've struggled. Maybe someone is...
