    Hello, General Wiim Questions? Looking for guidance..

    Hello:) I'm new to Wiim. I'm a bit of an old school audiophile looking to digitize my CD collection. Perhaps I'll just outright ask some questions and I'd appreciate your thoughts. -If I rip my CD's on my Mac and store them on a portable hardrive, can that portable hardrive be connected to...

    Am I doing this right..?

    I have my WiiM Ultra connected to the hdmi earc on my Samsung tv. The WiiM is connected via optical to my Cambridge Audio cxa61. I’ve just read that the Ultra isn’t compatible with earc but everything seems to be working fine. Would it be better connected to a normal HDMI port?

    WiiM Album Artwork

    I have my music on a WD USB drive and not all of the album artwork shows up using the WiiM Ultra. I used Mp3Tag to add the artwork to the music files and still some of it does not show up. When I do add it I rescan the drive and that doesn't help. Any ideas?

    Ultra with Fiio K11 R2R

    I'm using the Wiim Ultra optical out, going into the Fiio K11 R2R. I've read a few articles advising to change the power supply and get a ifi Power. Some suggest the Power X model, some the Power 2. Does anyone have experience with this and can advise on the differences between the two? Thank you

    USB shuffle play

    Hello, my first post with the forum, and really enjoying the Ultra so far. I have an outboard usb hard drive with about 15,000 songs on it. I’m able to shuffle 500 “tracks” as per the current ability of the Ultra. The listing is alphabetical so I can vary my focus in which area to choose the...

    New RoomFit profiles!

    I know everybody is going to have a different preferred profile. I actually use two depending on the listening level. It's just such a significant change in the Ultra's software tech, I was wondering what my fellow community member's thoughts were on this new feature and the individual profiles...

    Please - give us a 5th order LP and HP crossover for the Ultra !

    A 4th order crossover like the one thats already used in the Ultra for subwoofer and the main speakers are good, but a better power respons in the room below the transition area can be had with an odd order crossover like a 5th order low and highpass filter. Thats 30dB/oct slopes. If the main...

    My current setup for my Wiim is primarily for headphone use (thanks neighbours) I can currently achieve sound from my tv via optical to my Wiim Ultra, but when I want to use a device connected through my soundbar to eARC on the TV the audio just plays through the soundbar. Currently I have my...

    Surround speakers - can you use any Google speakers or similar?

    Hello So I want to use some surround speakers on the WiiM Ultra. Can you use any Google speakers or anything similar to pair with the WiiM? Not to stream, but pair for surround as rear left and right speakers. The only thing I've found so far is on WiiMs website to use very specific set WiiM...

    RoomFit is very good - my experience and settings

    I've run RoomFit in two rooms now and it's a clear improvement in sound quality over using Room Correction for me. I've played with it a bit and since documentation is light on this currently thought it might be useful to post how I have used it. Here's my setup for ref: Office: Q Acoustic...

    Just got my Wiim Ultra and so far so awesome, except ... When I watch streaming services on my Apple TV, the audio is out of sync with the video. This happens on different apps, eg HBO and Apple's own app, and different shows. The same content played through my PS5 is perfectly aligned. My...

    I often connect my iphone to the WIIM Ultra using bluetooth to listen to radio.

    WiiM Ultra + DAC + Vibelink Amp

    Basic question. I currently connect Ultra to Vibelink over SP/DIF Optical, setting the volume on the Ultra. If I add a DAC, with input the same Optical and output an RCA that then becomes input on the Vibelink, will I still be able to set volume on the Ultra? I assume yes, but I'm not sure if...
