Native DSD support via USB

[Devon]

I bought a Wiim Ultra for DSD files, unfortunately the files downloaded from the DLNA server are converted by Wiim Ultra to PCM 192/24. Is there any way to add full DSD support via USB output? Are there any hardware limitations of the Wiim Ultra or is it just a software issue?

WIiM does not support native DSD data, and instead as you witnessed, converts it to PCM.

I know, that's why I reported it as feature request.

This is primarily a user community forum, if you wish to “report” this, you’re better off using the more/feedback section in the WiiM Home app to contact WiiM directly.

Some people have been able to send DoP data to an Ultra and have it send bit perfect output to optical and coax. According to one report that does not work for usb. Given that only 192 KHz data is supported, that is limited to DSD64.

I do not think the architecture can support native format (non-DoP) output but Wiim would have to comment on that.

The internal DAC has the capability of decoding DSD but that has not been implemented.
