    Thinking to buy a WiiM Ultra to connect with Bose Soundtouch 20

    The reason I have this in mind is because Bose terminates this Soundtouch line, and the Soundtouch 20 (and other Soundtouch devices) will become useless. But: is this a good option? Is it just putting a RCA cable from the WiiM Ultra to the Soundtouch 20? And if this is possible, would the sound...

    Qobuz connect stopped working

    Suddenly, the ringing stopped for no apparent reason. It seems to connect well on my phone and the Wi-Fi network is working, but when I stream, it doesn't play, and I can't receive it on Wi-Fi.

    Can’t Access USB on WiiM Ultra

    Hi, I'm using the WiiM Ultra with a USB drive. I can access the USB device from the mobile app without any problem, but from the WiiM screen or using the remote control (the “Change Source” button), I can't access the USB device. Is this normal behavior or a bug? Thanks.

    Music Visualizer options for WiiM Home app

    I’m using an iPad as a controller and display for my WiiM Ultra setup. A music visualizer of any kind would be amazing. Another option is supporting Plexamp through the WiiM Home app. It has plenty of built in visualizers. If I am missing how to use a visualizer, please let me know!

    Wiim Ultra as a hub to a bathroom movie audio streaming device and lossless headphone station.

    So, I went to a movie theater and dreaded going to the restroom because I was going to miss part of the show. The movie theater I went to though streamed the audio to the restroom and I missed substantially less since I could hear the dialogue and audio while doing my business. I also have a...

    My Ultra has the latest FW 5.2.730566. Well, ten minutes ago I got a pop up telling me a new FW is available. The disconcerting thing is that the firmware it suggests seems to be older. It suggests version 5.2.728233. Has anyone received the same notification? From the number, the proposed...
