Measures Great. Sounds Even Better.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe WiiM Ultra packs an extraordinary amount of performance into an affordable component. Its ESS ES9038 Q2M DAC and carefully engineered analog output stage deliver genuinely excellent measured performance, with a specified \u003cstrong\u003e121 dB signal-to-noise ratio and THD+N approaching -116 dB\u003c\/strong\u003e. More importantly, it sounds clean, open, and transparent enough to pair comfortably with highly revealing audio systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThat matters to us. We would not recommend using a streamer as a DAC and preamplifier with our power amplifiers if we thought it was going to become the weak link in the system. The Ultra has impressed us both on the test bench and, most importantly, in extended listening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eAnd then there is \u003cstrong\u003eRoomFit\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoomFit Can Make a Bigger Difference Than Changing Electronics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eYour room and speaker placement have an enormous influence on what you actually hear, particularly in the bass. WiiM's RoomFit system measures the interaction between your speakers and room, then applies precise digital correction to reduce the peaks and other response problems created by that interaction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eRoomFit allows you to select different target curves, define the frequency range being corrected, control maximum boost and cut, adjust Q, and save different correction profiles. You can perform the measurements using a compatible phone or tablet, or take things even further with an external calibrated measurement microphone such as a UMIK-1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eIn our experience, properly implemented room correction can produce an \u003cstrong\u003eaudible improvement far greater than many traditional component upgrades\u003c\/strong\u003e, especially in rooms with significant low-frequency problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"orphans: 2; widows: 2; text-decoration-thickness: auto; text-decoration-style: solid;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.peachtreeaudio.com\/pages\/wiim-roomfit-setup-suggestions\" title=\"WiiM RoomFit Setup Suggestions\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWiiM RoomFit Setup Suggestions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerious EQ for Fine Tuning\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eRoomFit is only part of the story. The Ultra also includes powerful manual equalization tools, including a \u003cstrong\u003e10-band Graphic EQ and 10-band Parametric EQ\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe parametric EQ gives you control over frequency, gain, Q, and filter type, allowing you to make extremely precise adjustments. You can use it to fine-tune your system after RoomFit, accommodate personal preferences, tame a bright recording, add a little warmth, or adjust tonal balance without changing anything else in the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eWiiM also allows different EQ settings to be assigned to different sources, and PEQ can be applied in stereo or adjusted independently for the left and right channels. That is an exceptional amount of control for a product at this price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Complete Digital Hub\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe WiiM Ultra can function as much more than a streamer. It includes digital and analog inputs and outputs, HDMI ARC, USB, Optical, Coaxial, RCA line input, Phono input, headphone output, Subwoofer Out, and a 12V trigger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThat means it can serve as the control center for an entire system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eUse it simply as a digital streamer feeding one of our Integrated Solutions, or connect its analog outputs directly to one of our Power Amplifiers and let the Ultra serve as your \u003cstrong\u003estreamer, DAC, preamplifier, EQ, room correction system, and source selector\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTV and Subwoofer Integration Made Easy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eHDMI ARC makes it easy to integrate your television into a high-quality two-channel music system. Your TV becomes another source, while HDMI-CEC allows convenient volume control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe dedicated Subwoofer Out adds another major advantage. Crossover frequency, level, phase, and timing can be managed within the WiiM ecosystem, and RoomFit can then be used to help integrate the subwoofer with your speakers and room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe result can be a remarkably sophisticated music and home entertainment system without the complexity of a traditional AV receiver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHi-Res Streaming Without the Hi-End Price\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe Ultra supports playback up to \u003cstrong\u003e24-bit\/192 kHz\u003c\/strong\u003e and works with services including Spotify, Amazon Music, TIDAL, Qobuz, and others, along with your own local music library.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eIt is also Roon Ready and supports Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Google Cast Audio, DLNA, Squeezelite, and other popular streaming protocols.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eIn other words, it does the things most people actually need a modern streamer to do, and it does them exceptionally well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do we offer the WiiM Ultra?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe short answer is that it checks most of the boxes our customers care about. It sounds great, measures extremely well, is easy to use, reliable, packed with useful features, and remarkably affordable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eWhen we first brought the WiiM Ultra in for evaluation, we were already partnered with another major streaming company. We simply wanted to see what the folks at Linkplay were up to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eBoy, were we impressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eIn fact, we believe the WiiM Ultra may be \u003cstrong\u003eone of the most significant products our industry has seen in years\u003c\/strong\u003e, and we do not say that lightly. The combination of sound quality, measured performance, RoomFit room correction, sophisticated EQ, connectivity, usability, and price fundamentally changes what customers should expect from a product in this category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy did we choose the Ultra?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eWhen deciding which WiiM product we wanted to offer, \u003cstrong\u003eanalog audio performance mattered\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eOur amplifiers are exceptionally open and transparent, so it made little sense to pair them with a streamer whose DAC or analog output stage would compromise that performance. The Ultra delivers excellent measured analog performance and has sounded equally impressive in our listening tests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThat makes it easy for us to recommend not only as a streamer, but also as a DAC and preamplifier when paired directly with our power amplifiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if I'm only using the digital output?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eIf you are connecting the WiiM Ultra digitally to the DAC in one of our Integrated Solutions, you can simply use it as a high-quality streamer and take advantage of its interface, RoomFit, EQ, HDMI ARC, Subwoofer Out, and other features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eIf you connect the Ultra directly to one of our Power Amplifiers, it can take on a much larger role, serving as the streamer, DAC, preamplifier, source selector, EQ, and room correction system for the entire system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant Note for Apple Music Users\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe WiiM Ultra \u003cstrong\u003edoes not support AirPlay and cannot function as an AirPlay receiver\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApple Music can still be played through the Ultra using other supported methods, but if AirPlay from an iPhone, iPad, or Mac is an essential part of your listening routine, the Ultra may not be the right fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"descriptionItem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"descriptionItemDesc\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"descriptionItem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"descriptionItemDesc\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Peachtree Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53476172988721,"sku":null,"price":349.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0401\/9490\/0118\/files\/51PtWSy1ocL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1792437463","url":"https:\/\/www.peachtreeaudio.com\/products\/wiim-ultra-in-silver-recertified","provider":"Peachtree Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
