    WiiM Amp Ultra vs WiiM Ultra + K11/K13 R2R + power amp

    Hello! For some time I've wanted to try an external DAC but I currently have a WiiM Amp Ultra, where I can't use any external DAC. I also have a WiiM Ultra in the closet and I'm thinking to myself if it wouldn't be worth using it instead of Amp Ultra and buying a DAC R2R + pure power amp (V3...

    New WIIM CI MOD A80 : Network amplifier

    Hi amigos It would appear that Wiim has launched their brand new WIIM CI MOD A80 Network amplifier based on a TPA3255 / ESS ES9018K2M chip. I'm not convinced it's a revolution compared to the Wiim Amp Pro and Ultra, but this new Wiim is available on Audiophonics...

    Wiim Mini with SMSL SU-1 vs Pro Plus?

    I did look for this discussion but couldn't find the answer, thought I'd sign up as I'm very much down a rabbit hole. I just had a WiiM Mini delivered on the plans to get an external DAC...but I've since started to sonder if I should have just got the WiiM Pro Plus? I can still send the mini...

    Looking for preamp to drive powered monitors

    My desktop system consists of a PC/AirPlay (sources) -> Cambridge CXN v2 (streamer/DAC/preamp) -> Genelec 8030c (speakers). After some changes in my internet service, the Cambridge has been frequently dropping its AirPlay connection. I tried troubleshooting this with my ISP, but that went...

    Sonos Five vs. Audio Pro C10 MK II WiiM Edition for kitchen?

    HI All, I'm considering a self powered speaker such as these for my kitchen use. I really want to use WiiM for the music streaming as I have WiiM elsewhere in the house. WiiM is not native to Sonos, and no digital input possible on the Sonos Five. The Sonos Five measures very well in Amir's...

    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...

    Time align with Wiim amp using Rew

    Hey! I'm trying to set the delay between the mains and the sub. I followed this guide, but I'm getting significant cancellations, same result when using the tool in the WiiM app. I don't have these one to show, but it was really bad. So I started increasing the delay on the mains by 2 ms and...

    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...

    A Thread For Multi-Room Synchronized Audio

    How good are alternatives to Sonos? 1. How does Bluesound work? 2. Roon? 3. HEOS? 4. Wiim? 5. ?? My personal priorities are: 1. Multi-room synch. Not negotiable 2. Grouping and ungrouping. 3. Local library 4. Ease of use for non-techies. I would prefer not to discuss sound quality, except...

    Bypassing Streamer (Wiim) DAC

    I’m a newbie, to digital, I admit it. I’m confused on digital to digital output and if DA conversion occurs once, twice. I’d like to stream (have a Pro + w the DAC), to my R26 R2R (which I feed to a Levinson preamp via XLR). If I’m running Wiim via say Optical (24/192 vis WiFi), into Gustard...

    Is my amp enough for my speakers?

    I just bought a Wiim amp and Kef R3 metas.I will be listening to the speakers around 3 meters away from them. I have looked at the specs and the amp should deliver enough power. But then i read some articles saying that the Kef R3 needs a beefier amp. So now i am confused.

    Purpose of variable input on some power amplifiers.

    I have a WIIM pro plus and was considering connecting it directly to an NAD C268 power amplifier. For safety reasons, I'd use the "variable input" on the back of the amplifier to set a "max" level in case the WIIM volume control goes haywire. Is this a viable solution? I know I can buy a preamp...
