EXCELLENT NEWS!
As confirmed by WiiM earlier.
If you have a DAC with balanced outs (and I'm going to guess most people eager for the Ultra to have balanced outs will already have such a DAC*), then you can take the digital out from the Ultra into that DAC, then used the balanced outs on the DAC to feed your amp.
Now we knew that already. But WiiM have confirmed that you can do this, using the external DAC for the main L&R speakers, whilst maintaining use of the Ultra's bass management and subwoofer output.
* If you don't have such a DAC, you can pick one up for c.£120. I know this isn't perfect, but it's a reasonable work around. Even then, you're only paying £450, which many people would think was a great price for the Ultra anyway.
