I just want the same quality, flexibility, and connection stability that I get at home with WiiM Ultra

Without wifi?

The only solution to get better audio quality than Bluetooth would actually be to have a USB dac built-in to the speaker. The phone would always have to be connected with a cable, but hey, at least it'll stay charged.

aptX Lossless is CD quality. I don't know how many devices out there support it.

aptX Lossless: what is the breakthrough Bluetooth codec? How can you get it?

You can now stream CD-quality audio losslessly over Bluetooth, if you have the right kit

Unexpectedly, What Hifi don't seem to grasp that lossless codecs like FLAC will show a lower bitrate without actually losing anything: "A CD audio file is 1,411kbps so you're always losing something here, though these claimed aptX Lossless figures are very close. Qualcomm says that 'no data is lost when audio is encoded and decoded with aptX Lossless'."
 
Not a new product as such, but a possible enhancement to existing devices (unless this already exists elsewhere) whereby each track played from any source, is looked up in an online database (a bit like an enhanced EAC track error correction database[?],) to see if a set of recommended PEQ/gain/normalisation settings has been submitted for that track, to compensate for any perceived recording inadequacies, etc. Each recommendation, could be ranked by popularity in the usual thumbs-up/down fashion, and if multiple submissions exist, those presented in descending order of popularity and the next could be tried, or a new set submitted. Tracks could then be played in the original form, or with automatic 'correction' with the most popular recommendation or alternatives. The database could be filled by user participation with each user submitting their preferred settings, and each track EQ choice recorded for that user.​

Plenty including my own. It does sound great, tons of power. Clean, ultra low noise floor. The only reason I didn’t keep it is because of the moderate pop when powering on and off; I gave it to my dad who loves it (and leaves his system on 24/7).

thxs - i'll wait until wiim brings a wiim amp ultra with more juice... ;-)
my wiim amp pro runs almost continuously every day and is also sensational on tv with arc. i'm really satisfied, except when i listen to a bit louder electronic music, a bit more wattage (200w at 4 ohms) would be ideal...
all complaining on a high level ;-)

An update on Wiim Ultra with many more presets and being able to navigate the device without phone or tablet, directly on the screen. A dream?

I love the ultra but I think a version that has a higher quality output via as many outputs as possible eg i2s etc for supplying an external dac would be good. This would give users an easy upgrade path without having to swap the ultra.

Something like a Squeezebox Touch, with beautifull screen, Ethernet, bluetooth and headphone output. To be put on the bedside table.
