    Are these issues normal behaviour?

    Most of your issues seem to be related to bluetooth. I don't use bluetooth, so can't say if it's normal. However, it doesn't sound acceptable, so I would contact the support. The other issues (pops on wake-up, HDMI-ARC drop-out) I have not witnessed. Initially had a lot of issues with HDMI, but...

    Volume limit

    This is the reason i wanted to limit the max as well. Happened a few times, had to dive to the amp and turn down the volume before permanently damaging hearing or gear. Could be some other way to reduce the possibility of max volyme by accident.

    Volume limit

    Setting the volume limit doesn’t just limit the max output. It also changes the entire volume range. Without the limit i normally listen at around 30% from the volume slider. Setting the limit at 80%, i need to move the volume slider to 50% for the same result. Also, the max volume is...

    Mainstream audio is getting afraid

    Never lived in Germany, visited many times. The impression I have is that it's quite conservative. Cash still used in a lot of places, small hardware stores exists even in downtown Munich. It's what we had in the 80s/90s in Northern Europe. The change will eventually come ;)

    Mainstream audio is getting afraid

    It can be, and stuff like the vinyls brought back is certainly interesting. I think it's not a question if it is a niche, but rather how large a niche. Back in the day the large electronic chains had dedicated departments for AVRs. Nowadays they don't have any, and no proper sections for...

    Mainstream audio is getting afraid

    I believe there is eventually only room for one option, not both. There will always be the niche markets with low volumes, high prices. But that niche will be so small, you will not anymore have electronic (or hi-fi) stores even in all larger cities to supply. That will make it even more niche...

    HDMI ARC no longer working

    With FW 5.0.609952 seems to be no issues after half a week of use. Sound from TV worked every time so far.

    HDMI ARC no longer working

    I know, and I am not expecting them to support me personally. I am saying, they already know of the issues. I’m giving them time to fix it. My post was for the community, so you know too.

    HDMI ARC no longer working

    I chose to post to this forum so the community knows there are still issues. I don’t have interest to deal with the support at this time. Wiim reads the forum too, don’t worry. The TV is a common model from a common manufacturer, there are probably millions of units with the same software and...

    HDMI ARC no longer working

    Mine is the same as before. It's about 50-50 chances of it working. Update made zero difference.

    hdmi arc issue

    If the issue is related to latest active input source, it would be software issue on Wiim side and nothing to do with quality of ARC standard. Just saying.

    hdmi arc issue

    I have very similar issue. I have not been able to spot the exact pattern how to replicate the behaviour, but fact is, sometimes turning on the TV will not result in sound coming from the Wiim. It seems that using the Wiim over Spotify connect will create the issue. And I'm not saying I expect...

    WiiM Amp

    The kind of coil whine experiences on the Wiim Amp is quite typical in the PC/GPU market. There's a lot of posts about it. I'm no expert, but basically how they explain it, it is physical vibration that causes the whine. The easy fix is to apply some kind of insulation in the form of glue or...

    WiiM Amp

    I think you might have misread my post. Perhaps the double negative was not a good choice of words :)

    Humming noise

    I haven't seen clear proof that the hum is even related to pcb version. Seems logical it's related to maturity of the production process. That in mind, higher pcb version should correlate with less quality issues. But doesn't mean it causes it. Wiim has only stated that some (maybe all :D)...

    WiiM Amp

    There has never in history been so much capacity in the world to produce things. Some completely useless junk, like the products in Temu. But also useful and long lasting products. I do not think that the price where Wiim Amp is being sold is impossible to make reasonable profits while producing...

    Humming noise

    Got my replacement unit today from Wiim. Old was PCB 4, new one is also PCB 4. Old one hummed, new one not. The packaging is slightly different (black&white logos instead of color, slightly different colour of white, smaller packages inside are differently labeled). The new one has the IEC class...
