Hey!
Only Option To Listen YouTube Sound Demo is with good headphones, not your favorite sound system because listening to two rooms at once is not a good thing, no matter how good your sound system is.,

Closest to listen my sound sample is with

I love the manner that you convey information. Very easy to follow even for someone like me that is only interested in the music, not the equipment. Excellent instructions. Always works. Thank you.

I just placed a order. Thanks, sir! My favorite reviewer

[SvenfromKiel]

Thanks a lot! Very helpful information with „usb-connection in“ and unique sound presentation at the end…🎉

Good reviews and a very good product streamer/DAC that is as good as it gets, at any sensible price.

I love mine. I have had it for a couple of weeks now. Going out to a Gustard R26 via USB. to a Yamaha as-2200 with a pair of Mofi Sourcepoint 10 speakers. Sounds amazing!! Great video sir!! The best part to me of the Wiim products is the platform, a ton of versatility for an affordable price.

I just received mine yesterday and I must say the Linkplay and the teams did a tremendous job for this Ultra! I think this would be a benchmark to beat for streaming transport under $500.

I purchased a pair of Q Acoustics M20 powered Bluetooth speakers that I'm now using with my Wiim Ultra. Initially I used the speakers on their own. But I found that they just lacked the quality that I was looking for. Now that they are paired with the Wiim, they are superb! Highly recommend 👌.

I’m waiting for the Node Icon. Already have 2 nodes so works for my ecosystem.
But the ultra is a good value product.

I bought it and returned it. Not happy with the performance. Not sure what the reviewers are talking about but mine was distorted whether changing the volume setting or not, going through a DAC etc. Changed to a Cambridge Audio MXN10 and what a difference! Much

[mcjonner]

I really appreciate your star rating system

[robinkleinsteuber]

Nice review! Too much stuff around here now ... later maybe. Happy listening! 😉👍🎶🎶🎶

[audiophiles]

Thank you for the review as always^^ I LOVE my WiiM Ultra too.

[amakrid]

I'd wish to know Ultra's capabilities as a digital transport and whether the DSP works with an external Dac...
🙂

[justasimplefox]

Would be nice if they would add a more premium streamer(only) to their range 😊

[WllSkiz]

Great info! I was convinced this DAC was not as good as the ESS Sabre 9018 in my Audiolab let alone better. It seemed 'hot'. I looked over and over for a gain setting to no avail. Obviously I did not look carefully enough. I dropped the gain down -2db and it is like an entirely different DAC. Thanks!

J'adore ses installations et instructions propres ❤

Which do you think has better sound quality between this unit and the eversolo A8? Would it be better to compare it to the A6 if so which do you like? I’m looking for superb quality at a good price. Not a cheap price, reasonable price.

[jasonhilliker]

I'm using the USB out into my Singxer SU-6 DDC, then into my Weiss 205 DAC. For the money, I'm real happy with the sound. I might upgrade to the Bluesound Node Icon in the future.

[net_news]

wiim should release an "all digital" version of the Wiim Ultra

[ronniehosein]

Hi thanks for the review been waiting on your review. How does the sound quality only compare to the eversolo a6 and a8?
