    Kef R5 meta all in one amp (EU)

    That’s a LOT of power. I rarely see anyone ever needing that much power. You’d be better off to get a subwoofer or go for the R7/R11. If you are set on more power, get a single LA90D, and get another one when needed

    Kef R5 meta all in one amp (EU)

    Wiim Pro Plus + Is Wiim Vibe (Good) OR Wiim Pro Plus + Topping LA90D (Great) I suggest against the Wiim Ultra because it has no Airplay

    WiiM Ultra

    Have you checked the cable that you’re using? These cables have micro-controllers in them, and there’s a huge difference between HDMI 1.4 to 2.0 and 2.1 cables

    WiiM Ultra

    Bluetooth has licensing fees if you use wireless headphones. Otherwise your headphone amp is paying for some sort of technology licensing fee.

    WiiM Ultra

    Licensing fees, it always licensing fees. If you’re playing something from blu-ray, manually change the audio stream selection to stereo. Dolby licences are incredibly expensive and Wiim is a budget device. Atmos is also designed primarily for multichannel setups. Lastly, even the NAD M10 v3...

    NAD M10 Streaming Amplifier Review

    I'm sorry to hear that, but that points to the amplifier being broken which is reparirable though expensive. I recently purchased the Wiim Amp (not the Pro version) and I'm quite happy with it. I doesn't have the beautiful display, nor the Dirac Room correction but at 1/6 the price it is not a...
