    My HDMI ARC test

    Tested the new ARC toggle on the WiiM app. There are currently 2 toggles on the WHA's Audio Input Settings. 1) Auto-sensing of HDMI [Auto-sensing] 2) Automatically output audio to WiiM when TV is on [AOTO] I checked how the TV and WiiM output audio when the 2 toggles were switched on/off...

    WiiM Ultra Volume knob push not working

    I'm having an issue with my WiiM Ultra where the volume knob push function for play/pause has stopped working recently. I'm not sure if this is related to the latest firmware update. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

    Subwoofer Output Keeps Turning Off

    I have a recurring issue where the subwoofer output on my Wiim Ultra switches itself off. I'm not sure if this issue originates in the Wiim Ultra itself or the iOS app, but both are up-to-date. I'll repeatedly set the toggle switch for "Sub Output" in the Subwoofer menu to "on," then notice a...

    Vibelink & Ultra

    While browsing YouTube, I came across the Vibelink. I looked at it for a while, read a little about it, and then I just ordered it. After connecting it, I knew immediately that I had finally found the amplifier I had been looking for for a few years. This little box can actually replace my...

    Roon does not see my Ultra as an end point

    Set up my brand new Ultra yesterday. Set up was easy and I enjoyed several hours of exploring and using the different functions of the unit. All went very well except for using rooN as the input. rooN does not see the Ultra as a “zone” (endpoint). The Ultra is configured as a DAC with fixed...

    Let Wiim or Apple TV downmix 5.1 to stereo PCM?

    Hi! Should I let my Apple TV downmix the 5.1 surround sound to stereo PCM or leave it on auto and let my WIIM Ultra do it? (My LG tv could also do it, but I'm guessing it's probably the least correct option.) I can definitely tell a difference, mostly in the treble. When Apple does it, the highs...

    Ultra or Eversolo Play?

    Not so much interested in connectivity, but more on usability & streaming features. Which to go for?

    Processor Limitation indicated by VU meter? - Wiim Ultra

    When using the HDMI input for movies (stereo PCM) or Tidal Connect for 16bit 44.1kHz FLAC music, the VU meter works beautifully, but as soon as I play any hi res 24bit music, the VU meter is slow, delayed, no longer smooth, and stutters. The best way I can describe it is it looks like it's...

    Wiim Ultra Display Resolution?

    I can't find this anywhere and I'd like to know so I can upload background photos that match the screen's pixel resolution and therefore look the best.

    Are Full Version of Apps a Possibility?

    I see this discussed partially in other threads, but why can't the Ultra be a client for full or simplified versions of the music apps it supports via phone/device? I bought the Ultra assuming I would be able to download the Spotify app (and others) because it has a screen, much like I can on a...

    Wiim Ultra to DAC - USB sounds better than coaxial

    After having had Wiim devices in my secondary audio systems (Pro Plus in the bedroom, Amp in the fitness room), I finally bought an Ultra for my living room system: - DAC: T+A DAC8 DSD - Preamp: Linn Klimax Kontrol - Power amp: Linn Klimax Twin - Speakers: Dynaudio Confidence C2 My main...

    Newbie (but oldie) setup

    Hi - new to the forum, new to the world of streamers and to the WiiM Ultra. I picked one up earlier this week from Richer Sounds who price-matched Amazon's Prime Day pricing (£279), which was/is a total bargain. Very impressed with the device. Main reason for buying was to listen to my vinyl...

    Random reboots

    Wanted to ask if it is just my Ultra that is rebooting itself randomly when not turned on? It happens roughly once per 2 weeks, happend several times already but I do not remember it doing this half a year ago when I bought it, so it was probably introduced by one of the later FWs. I know it by...

    The speakers are barely audible.

    I have the Ultra connected via line out to active Klipsch 41PM speakers. I had the volume set to about mid on the speakers and 30-40 on the Wiim and the volume was perfect. But now at 30-40 the speakers are not quiet and to hear the music at least very quietly I have to set the Wiim to 70-80...

    Question on WiiM Ultra vs Marantz AVR DAC and sound

    I am currently using a Marantz SR5008 solely as a preamp. All signals including my tidal app all come from the TV via an HDMI cable an are fed to a pair of mono-block amps and a subwoofer. I am looking at replacing the Marantz with a WiiM Ultra. I am not interested in any additional streaming...
