How to measure a streamer?

[Joffieb]

HI,

I have read the review and measurements of the WiiM Pro. Mine had teething problems on arrival and I'd love to measure it in the digital domain only, to see if the measurements match those done here. I have a PC, a mac, REW both ands the streamer. Could anyone please advise as to any other equipment needed and the steps. the steps. Thanks

A Hifime UR23

and the steps. the steps.

Connect WiiM->Optical->UR23->Computer, then stream your test signals to the WiiM and record the result via REW on your computer.

In REW, make sure that you're using Java EXCL, not regular Java, and make sure that you're manually matching the WiiM's output sample rate in the REW Soundcard menu.

Horrible Crackling from Topping E1x2

Hi! I lurked on this forum a lot when deciding on which interface to buy, and I ended up deciding on "upgrading" from my rudimentary Behringer UM-2 to a Topping E1x2. The first day, it worked great! The next day however, I noticed a horrible crackling noise when I was playing a game and...
