    Wiim Ultra oddities

    Is it me or are this a correct design feature of the Ultra. When the device is off, why does it switch itself on when touched ? This is very annoying because if I want to reconfigure cables it means that I first need to unplug it from the mains . Standby mode on any devise should be a sufficient...

    How to use a phono preamp with wiim ultra

    I have a Technics SL-BD27 plugged into the phono input of the ultra. I read that the turntable has no preamp (there is no line/phono switch) and that the ultra needs the turntable to have one. So... I ordered Rolls VP29 preamp. Meanwhile, I have the turntable plugged into the phono jacks on...

    Problem with gapless playback.

    Thought I’d start a new thread. With Lady Gaga’s Chromatica album. When transitioning from Chromatica II into 911 from Tidal connect the Ultra stops/pauses for a second (the pause symbol appears on the Ultra’s display) and then plays. The two tracks play fine on my iPad.

    Spotify Connect and the ARC issue

    When my PS5/TV activates the ARC on the WIIM Ultra, it will no longer show up as a device on my Spotify connect. I have to reset to factory settings and re set up the device to play music on the WIIM again. It’s pretty frustrating, I’ve reached out to tech with no answer. Anyone had this...

    NOS/OS mode when using external DAC?

    If I were to connect the Ultra via USB to an external DAC that has both oversampling and non-oversampling modes, then it makes sense for me not to oversample in the Ultra if I am doing it the external DAC. Or does it really matter? And If I don't want to oversample in the Ultra, what settings...

    No idea how to set Wiim ultra subwoofer

    Very new to streaming - just got my Wiim Ultra - and I don’t understand the subwoofer controls in the app. I’m running a REL subwoofer into my Plinius integrated amp. So… do I want to add the Wiim subwoofer into that chain? Do I want the Wiim subwoofer off? Do I want bypass mode off or on? Do I...

    VU meter with bars

    I often watch Ultra reviews on you tube. Many times the Ultra is shown with the VU meter view, but with coloured bars going up and down. I have never been able to find that option in the settings. Where is it?

    Subwoofer setup wiim ultra

    Hello people, i have a SVS sb 2000 pro subwoofer. I would like to use the SVS app to setup the subwoofer, because i can regulate the slope on the svs app. I was under the impression that using the 'bypass mode' in the WIIM ultra subwoofer section would eliminate the bass management on the WIIM...
