  • NegativeNo airplay

When a device is called "Ultra", it should epitomise what is possible in a certain discipline. And the WiiM top model actually succeeds in doing this. Despite its down-to-earth price, it offers a standard-setting operating concept and a wealth of useful features that you would otherwise have to pay much more for...

The WiiM Ultra is a real high-flyer whose capabilities are far above its price class. The device is excellently equipped with an integrated quality DAC, colour touch display and flexible preamplifier and impresses with its comprehensive connectivity, very good sound quality and versatile software with a high degree of maturity...

  • Positive3.5-inch colour touchscreen with real glass cover
  • PositiveWiim Home app with fully parametric 10-band EQ
  • PositiveMany important network protocols and music services
  • NegativeNo airplay
  • NegativeCoarse volume control when using the mobile buttons

Overall, the WiiM presents itself as a top playground for streaming fans, and at a high sound level. This applies in particular to its use as a streamer on an existing hi-fi system, but with extra apps it can also be used as a preamplifier. The whole thing is available for 400 euros - that's an almost outrageously favourable price and a really hot tip.
