I received my WiiM Ultra about a week ago and it has been in the box this whole time. I was excited to get it but before I received it I saw the news about Airplay 2 never coming to this hardware revision of the Ultra. Now I am torn. One hand it sounds like it is a great product but on the other, as a first time WiiM purchase, the rug pull puts a bad taste in my mouth. My only disappointment with no Airplay is not being able to use multiroom audio with the Homepods I have scattered around in other rooms of the house. It is not a feature I would use all the time but one that would be used. I have seen the comments from people using the Belkin Airplay adapter as a work around but don't love having to get another device to do something that was supposed to be included (according to the original press release that was quietly modified) anyways. I am still within my return window so I am trying to figure out if I should keep it or return it before that window is up.
My question for those who feel similar but have kept the Ultra, do you miss Airplay 2? Is it a big omission or is it something you ended up not missing? I appreciate everyone's feedback!
