Review: As good as they said it would be! - I bought this WiiM Ultra Streamer to act as a digital jukebox for my Yamaha RN600a receiver, CD S303 and B&W 606 S3 based system. The presentation of this WiiM streamer is impeccable and it comes with the necessary leads etc. to get going. Because the device is so popular there are so many support forums out there both official and unofficial. The build quality seems excellent with a wide variety of inputs and outputs, I use the optical output. The touchsceen is very good both in terms of clarity and sensitivity, it's so nice to see the album art. I've partnered my WiiiM Ultra with a 512GB Samsung Bar Plus USB stick - I chose this because of it's very low power drain and the fact that it's metal means it dissipates heat -the combination works flawlessly and I've added about 500 Cds so far. The WiiM app gives you plenty of control and is well designed, I like the fact you don't have to log in. Sound output is really authentic and you can opt for flat output or customise the sound via a built EQ - personally, I prefer to shape the sound with my Yamaha amp. I store my CDs on a USB stick plugged in to the WiiM Ultra, I can select the albums/tracks I want to play via the WiiM app installed on my Android tablet which also displays the artwork. Overall, this is a star product which for most users will deliver everything they could want at affordable price, whilst offering good quality sound. The only downside I can think of is the lack of support for Apple Airplay, if you can live without the latter this is a very (very) good buy build quality, usability and output are top notch at the price.
Review: Extraordinary Streamer very aggressively priced. - This is our 3rd WiiM device, now joining a Mini and a Pro. The WiiM devices in general box well above their weight, offering a combination of connectivity, audio quality, stability, and functionality which far exceeds anything to be expected from the price point. The Ultra has built upon all that was on offer from the mid-range models and offers an extraordinary range of input and output formats, as well as the ability to stream, in the highest resolutions available from the more sound quality focussed streaming services such as Tidal and Qobuz, amongst many others. Currently, you could almost argue that we're under-utilising it as we've connected it to an external DAC via USB for the highest possible sound quality, but experimenting with the onboard DAC yielded great results which again belie the very low price. From the time of plugging it in, to listening to the streaming services of choice was only a few minutes thanks to the excellent application and intuitive interface. Whether using the app on phone or tablet, or indeed the onboard touchscreen, the unit is extremely responsive and offers nearly immediate action to any input. Personally, I don't use the touchscreen, preferring to operate the unit completely from the app, however the included remote control is quite handy, well lain out, and again, very intuitive to use. The only sidenote worthy of mention is that though the onboard WiFi connectivity is very quick and reliable, for best results at the highest resolutions I do suggest feeding the unit via ethernet for the utmost response and performance. It's very difficult to find fault in the WiiM Ultra at even 2-3X the price and I'd suggest sonically, that it'd be at home in nearly any hifi system.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great sound and aesthetics at an excellent price.
*by S***I on 17 April 2025*

I have owned a number of streamers over the last few years including Bluesound, Raumfeld and Arylic, the most recent being the Arylic S10+ which I used in conjunction with an SMSL SU-1 DAC which sounded good but I found it irritating to use as my streaming service of choice is Amazon Music which it only supports via Airplay which I found to be very inconsistent in operation. The WiiM Ultra was a step up in price so I was expecting better performance and so far it hasn't disappointed. The WiiM Home control app is excellent and very versatile and once downloaded the setup was a breeze although the firmware update took about 15 minutes. I use the analogue output to feed a pair of Q Acoustics M20 powered speakers, I couple the Ultra directly to my router via an ethernet cable, I have my Mac computer connected via optical digital cable and I have external solid state drive connected via USB. The unit itself is very substantial and quite weighty and certainly good for the price, the touch screen has good clarity and clear graphics and it's nice to have album artwork displayed while listening, and it defaults to a clock when there is no music playing. The supplied remote is good quality and works well, only black mark is there were no batteries supplied for it, shame on you WiiM ☹️ It works via bluetooth not IR which means no delays that IR remotes sometimes suffer from. As to the sound quality it is a step up from streamers I've had previously, the previous best I had was the Bluesound Node 2i which was a similar price, the Ultra is more detailed without being clinical and more even in tonal balance, the Node 2i being a little on the rich side of neutral. The Ultra is also a little more dynamic particularly in the bass. Overall I'm delighted with the WiiM Ultra and at it's price point it has to be regarded as a bargain and deserves a 5* rating.
