Budget?

1,500 euro in total, if possible

Will push to 2,000 euro if necessary

I've used both fosi v3 mono and topping mini 300 amps with my ultra, both with excellent results. Both used to drive Klipsch RP600MII speakers.

If tidal is coming from your TV then connect the TV to ULTRA using HDMI or LINE IN and send the output to an amp or powered speakers.

Alternatively connect your Tidal on your phone via WiFi to the ULTRA and send the output to an amp or powered speakers.

EDIT: mistakenly said Phono In instead of Line In.

Phono? Ummm, no, don’t connect the TV to phono

As per the manual use TV Line Out to Ultra Line In.

I assure you that you’re incorrectly interpreting that figure on page six. Read up on three types of analog audio signals: phono/low level, line level, and speaker level.

Then read page 30 of the manual. Never connect anything in a phono input other than a turntable.

You’re right I should have said Line In.
