Connect the WiiM Ultra’s Audio Output
The WiiM Ultra offers six distinct audio output interfaces to connect to your DAC, amplifier,
headphones, stereo receiver, subwoofer, and powered speakers. These include:
⚫ Analog Line Out
⚫ Digital Optical Out
⚫ COAX Out
⚫ USB Out
⚫ Sub Out
⚫ Headphone Out
In addition to audio output via the above physical interfaces, the WiiM Ultra can also output
audio via Bluetooth. For detailed instructions, see Audio Output via Bluetooth Out.
Notes:
⚫ The WiiM Ultra outputs audio to only one of these interfaces at a time, aside from
the optional Sub Out.
⚫ Selecting the appropriate audio output port is crucial to ensure sound output.
Incorrect selection may result in no audio.
⚫ For bit-perfect audio output, opt for the digital audio output and activate Fixed
Volume Output, disable EQ and mono audio in the WiiM Home app's device
settings.
⚫ You have two ways to control the volume of your system:
o Control the volume directly from your AV receiver or amplifier when Fixed
Volume Output is set on the WiiM Ultra.
o Control the volume through the WiiM Home app, but make sure to disable
Fixed Volume Output. (Recommended Method)
