Product Summary
The WiiM Ultra is a high-resolution music streamer and digital pre-amplifier designed to become the central hub of a modern hi-fi system. Compact, versatile and easy to use, it brings together music streaming, digital and analogue inputs, phono connectivity, headphone listening, room correction and subwoofer control in one neatly finished component.
At the heart of the Ultra is an ESS ES9038 Q2M DAC, supporting high-resolution playback up to 24-bit/192 kHz. It can stream music from popular services, play local and networked music, and connect to existing amplifiers, powered speakers, headphones or external DACs, making it a flexible upgrade for a wide range of systems.
The front-panel 3.5 inch colour touchscreen gives quick access to playback, album artwork, inputs, presets and settings, while the WiiM Home app provides deeper control from your phone or tablet. Room correction, graphic EQ, parametric EQ and subwoofer bass management allow the Ultra to be tuned more precisely to your room, speakers and listening preferences.
With HDMI ARC for TV sound, optical and line inputs, a built-in phono input, RCA pre-out, digital outputs, USB audio output and headphone output, the WiiM Ultra is a practical choice for customers who want a compact streaming pre-amplifier that can handle music, TV, vinyl and headphones without unnecessary complexity.
