Just checked my Mini - you’re right. Doesn’t bother me because I only use it the optical out, but hopefully they add it at some point.Not (yet?) available on the WiiM Mini nor WiiM Edition Audio Pro speakers.
Yeah I still can’t believe they for 10 band PEQ working on the mini…They are on the WiiM Mini roadmap so they might arrive there, but given the Mini only has a quarter of the RAM as its siblings I think WiiM might be at the stage of trying to pour a quart into a pint pot…
Schiit SYN!Spit balling. Given that many on this forum have spare DACs and amplifiers, connect a cheap DAC to the USB output, wire the signal wires from each channel to a mono to stereo passive adapter and experiment with Hafler surround sound.
Gross understatement, there is no USB input to the Ultra, other than serving files off an external SSD or HDD.USB as a music source within the Ultra doesn't have quite the same functionality as the other inputs.
Yeah. But all the other inputs don't quite have the functionality to accept an external SSD or HDD.Gross understatement, there is no USB input to the Ultra, other than serving files off an external SSD or HDD.
According to Jason the master stereo signal is "untouched" to the front pair where SQ really counts, but he probably means "audibly transparent" rather than literally no conversion?If you're using the syn's surround sound upmixing processing, then use toslink, because I assume the syn will be converting to digital anyway?
If it really is the Ultra that picked up hum through any input channel, then this very same hum present on its output cannot be removed by any symmetrizer.As the Ultra is kind of subsceptible to pick up noise / hum (never had this issue with any other preamplifier I had) I'm in need for either:
- Small USB Dac, powered via usb itself with balanced out (xlr or trs) and preferably fixed volume or physical volume knob
Or maybe
- device (symmetrizer) to convert the rca out of the WIIM Ultra to symmetrical xlr or trs out. Found a HT Switcher which also has the function of an symmetrizer at audiophonics (https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/home...iophonics-hc-trigger-switch-mkii-p-19956.html) but maybe there a better options (It's active and needs separate power supply, which I'd like to avoid)
I tested already as an usb dac my focusrite scarlett solo with trs out, which completely eliminates hum / noise, so it's effective. But I need it for my measurents, so can't use it permanently for that.
Any suggestions?
That's what I feared too, as the substraction of hum / noise in the balanced connection wouldn't work, as already in the rca signal, but still wanted to try. But then I skip that and look for a good dac.If it really is the Ultra that picked up hum through any input channel, then this very same hum present on its output cannot be removed by any symmetrizer.
If you stream Apple Music, Eversolo is really almost the only good option of the three. If you stream from any other major service, then you would want to consider what else you listen to. If you’re someone listening to vinyl, the Eversolo play and the WiiM Ultra & VibeLink combo have that phono input, which the WiiM Amp Ultra does not. Also, if you’re planning to listen using headphones, the WiiM Amp Ultra and Eversolo Play do not have their own headphone out, whereas the WiiM Ultra & VibeLink combo does. Finally if you still spin CDs, the Eversolo Play has a CD transport built in, whereas neither WiiM does.I have a question at this point which one to choose:
wiim ultra amp - 529
wiim ultra + vibilink - 628
eversolo play - 699

Eversolo does not do AirPlay. The streamer itself is Android-based so you can just install the Apple Music app right on it to stream music directly.Does eversolo have airplay?
