    Wifi VS ethernet for sound quality on Wiim Amp Ultra?

    I am thinking of going Wifi and getting rid of the switch and all the cabling. Would I get as good sound quality from streaming services through Wifi, as I do with an ethernet cable? I would be using my 5G Wifi.

    New user looking for guidance :)

    Hello guys and gals, I want to reduce my video and audio setups into one, making a Wiim device the center piece of it all. This is what i'm looking for: 1- connect my TV (LG OLED C7) via HDMI to the Wiim. 2- connect my turntable (Dual 1229) to the Wiim phono inputs. I have a standalone phono...

    Are audio reviewers making stuff up?

    Serious question. I recently watched a video by Darko, in which he compares a 75 watt Arcam Class A/B integrated amp to the Wiim amp ultra. He makes some startling claims... He implies that the Arcam is more powerful than the Wiim. Really? Watts are watts! 100 watts > 75 watts. He then goes into...

    Speaker cables: pricey VS cheap

    I have gotten off the exotic cable train these last few months. I find them to have severe diminishing returns and most of the time do nothing more. When I bought my Wiim amp ultra, I was in a hurry and the salesman offered me Audioquest Rocket 22 speaker cables at half price. I bought them. The...

    Music Library on NAS shared folder?

    Maybe I'm missing something here but should music libraries on NAS shared folders be indexed somehow in the Wiim Home App? I added a network share and can access the folder just fine but it's really just the folder, no sorting by album, artist, or displaying cover art. All of my music is...

    Amp Ultra or 3e A7 with Ultra

    I've had the OG Amp since April of 2024 and I would like to upgrade to something with a little more power. I plan on moving the OG Amp to handle rear duties for a surround setup. My JBL 4410a's can handle around 140 watts per channel. I could go with the Amp Ultra with its 100 watts and all in...

    Audio and Video out of sync after linking Amp Ultra and Mini

    I've noticed that when I use my TV as a sound source (via HDMI) to my Amp Ultra, after linking to a Mini, that the picture is way out of sync. If I unlink the Mini and the Amp then the audio and video are as they should be. Not sure how to measure the lag, but it seems like several hundred...

    A large display

    I'm using the Wiim Amp Ultra and I'm absolutely thrilled with it. This is exactly how a well-designed device should work. I've owned devices from Marantz, Denon, Pioneer, Eversolo, and Cambridge Audio. Only the Wiim has met all my expectations! The only minor drawback is the small display. If...

    Headphones to Wiim Amp Ultra?

    Hi all, I would like to understand if something is possible to do with my setup as I haven’t been able to find a conclusive answer and have gotten a bit confused in my research. I have a Wiim Amp Ultra connected to a TV via HDMI, to a turntable via Line In, and to L & R speakers. Is it possible...

    Playing Music from USB on WiiM AMP ULTRA

    I use WiiM Amp Ultra primarily for playing music from a USB. While the App is very good and user-friendly, I feel that certain things are quite counter-intuitive. For example, I have my music on USB carefully archived into folders/artists/tracks etc. The App scans this fine (albeit through...

    Using WiiM HDMI ARC Input for Non HDMI TV Source

    Until now, I have not used the HDMI ARC Input on any of my WiiM devices to connect to any of my TVs, because I am not a fan of the HDMI ARC concept, and do not want to use my TV remote control to control the volume of my Ultra, or Amp Ultra, as they have their own perfectly good remote controls...

    WiiM Amp Ultra questions

    Have the wiim amp ultra for last 1 week. Nice compact powerful amp. I'm using in my work table the wiim with Kef LS50. It's nice. Will playaround with PEQ bit later. I have Eversolo dmpA8 in my Hall, and I'm really satisfied with its sound quality, software and display. I feel in Wiim amp...

    Cons - Sound could be more entertaining ~

    - Two days back published. - "While this streaming amp isn’t for those who put sound quality first, it certainly has a place for those looking for a fuss-free audio solution." -- this is their conclusion statement. I say nonsense. - IMO its 5 stars given its price.

    System very flakey recently.

    HDMI audio showing as playing but silent, amps hanging on trying to play songs from the wiim app, constantly asking my to sign in to Amazon Alexa again. Was there a silent update pushed, I’ve had to reboot all my devices so many times this week.
