The WiiM Ultra is a streaming pre-amplifier that brings turntables, TVs, USB and Bluetooth devices into one system. It has outputs for amplifiers, active speakers and headphones. Inputs include HDMI ARC for a TV.
It uses dual ESS Sabre ES9038Q2M DAC chips for 32-bit/384kHz digital to analog conversion. It plays hi-res music gaplessly up to 24-bit/192kHz. Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 with a dual antenna setup handle wireless connections. It supports multiroom audio for synchronized playback.
A 3.5-inch full-color touchscreen shows app widgets, album artwork and playback information. A physical volume knob with a glass cover gives direct control. The WiiM Home OS includes built-in room correction. The chassis is aluminum.
