    Does WiiM PEQ use RBJ / REW standard for Q?

    Hi, Does anyone know whether the WiiM PEQ implementation follows the RBJ (Robert Bristow-Johnson) / REW "Generic" standard for calculating Q? If not, what standard or maths does it use instead? I'm trying to ensure a 1:1 match for filters generated in REW. Thanks

    Is the preamp solved?

    I have quite a few speakers and many many power amps here and there after years of hifi interest but only one NAD preamp. Preamps are ridiculous expensive and extreme hard to find second hand. I wonder why. Power amp are every where. At the same time streamers are also difficult to find to a...

    REW PEQ Help

    I have been using REW with a Umik 1 to generate PEQ filters which I then manually put into my WIIM Ultra. When I do this I have REW set to basically only reduce frequencies with no boosting. For basically all frequency reductions that REW has generated it has given me two filters (one boosting...

    Buying Streamer soon. Wiim Ultra and Eversolo Play are prob final contenders Some Questions if I may

    Yes the Ultra is $500 dollars cheaper and does not have an amp but I have Preamps and Good, ok decent, vintage amplifiers that I would like to incorporate if possible. I also strongly think that showing the Album Artwork and browsing through music libraries on the screen of the Handheld Remote...

    Would adding a balanced DAC to the WiiM ultra make a noticeable improvement?

    Currently using a WiiM ultra -> Topping B100 mono I have a few questions. 1. Would adding the D50III and using its balanced outputs make audible improvements? I understand there’s a minor measurement improvement. 2. With that setup is it better to control the volume with the D50III or with...

    Searching for a digital preamp with multiple digital inputs and outputs.

    Before getting serious about my office pc sound, I just ran everything through my Mackie mixer and into an amp or powered speaker. I loved the ability to play multiple sources at once and never really having to switch inputs. I then switched to running everything into my Yamaha receiver and...

    Request for comments: Wiim Ultra --> Minidsp Flex (all digital version) --> Wiim Vibelink Amp

    I have been using the following chain for more than 15 years: Sonos Connect --> V-DAC --> Trends-Audio TA-10.2 SE --> Piega TS 5 (floorstanding speakers in a slim aluminum cabinet) The system is getting on in years and a few acoustic peculiarities no longer suited me. The first thing I did was...

    Wiim Ultra Phono Stage

    I posted this under the Wiim Ultra review, but thought it may be a better fit here. I did a Google search and have found that both line in and phono in are contained on a sub board. The phono circuit appears to be analog until it reaches, or is close to reaching, the ADC. The opamps are...

    WiiM Ultra... Am I missing something?

    I've looked at the photos and read the specs, but don't see a way to connect a WiiM Ultra to a PC via USB. I see the USB port for media sticks, but nothing that says it's suitable for PC connection. Was hoping to consider this as a digital preamp with bass management and room correction to...
