    What will the ‘other’ new WiiM be this May?

    I'm not arguing that no one needs or values a remote. I was just pointing out that a new remote wasn't necessarily required to get full use of the Ultra. Personally, I haven't even bother linking my Wiim remote after several months of use of Mini, Pro+ and Amp. Goes to show how different two...

    What will the ‘other’ new WiiM be this May?

    Surely the app will provide for easy changes/adjustments for the display (presuming that the display even has configurable elements).

    What will the ‘other’ new WiiM be this May?

    I think a modestly priced standalone power amp, higher power than the Amp and w/ PFFB, would be a logical addition to the Wiim lineup. Priced between $150 and $200, ideally. It would complement the Pro, Pro+ and Ultra, which is a pretty good "upsell" / plus-one marketing opportunity for Wiim...

    Room Correction Beta firmware for WiiM Pro, Pro Plus and Amp - User Testing Experience

    Valid point. I suppose it would be nice to not need internet when doing RC, although in practice it seems like a narrow case. We all may have to live without RC in our remote log cabins! :)

    Room Correction Beta firmware for WiiM Pro, Pro Plus and Amp - User Testing Experience

    I agree the phone has the computational resources to do the math. But there are advantages for Wiim -- especially in this beta stage -- to having it on the servers. If on the phone, Wiim would need to push an app update every time they tweak the algorithm, whereas on servers they can tweak...

    Room Correction Beta firmware for WiiM Pro, Pro Plus and Amp - User Testing Experience

    The "algorithm" is just a transfer function that accepts the room measurement as an input and creates a set of PEQ settings as an output. Since this is a one-time computation (for each room measurement), it makes sense that its not done in firmware on the Amp (or Pro/+). Seems logical to me to...

    Room Correction Beta firmware for WiiM Pro, Pro Plus and Amp - User Testing Experience

    My app updated to 2.9.4 in the 10 hours since I posted. The PEQ is now 10 band. FWIW, the release note on the firmware said the update "only works with the beta iOS and Android app, version 2.9.6". (bolding mine) But clearly its working w/ Android 2.9.4 My Pro+ also now shows 10 band PEQ...

    What will the ‘other’ new WiiM be this May?

    There's no fundamental reason a "Wiim Wireless Sub" would need the Amp or the Ultra. Once you go wireless, you don't necessarily need the Sub Out as implemented on the Amp and Ultra. A Mini connected to a powered sub would essentially yield a wireless subwoofer . . . just add it to a "group"...

    Room Correction Beta firmware for WiiM Pro, Pro Plus and Amp - User Testing Experience

    So am I correct that Android users are waiting on an app update before we can use 10-band PEQ? Like others, my Amp updated and the notes mention the 10-band PEQ, but of course w/ the disclaimer that it only works w/ 2.9.6 app version. I signed up for the beta, but haven't received any links or...

    Room correction

    5 band stereo and 10 band mono is essentially the same thing . . . at least from the CPU and memory req'd for the core filters.

    Room correction

    For clarity, there isn't a resource equivalence between 10 identical L/R PEQs and 5 L / different 5 R PEQs. (to me this seemed implied by the statement above, but perhaps not intended by @Haskil). From a processor resource perspective (memory, CPU cycles) for realtime filter processing, there...

    USB Support

    USB Support

    Yes, I provided a detailed explanation of the IPv6 toggling workaround. I hope that detailed examples like that would be helpful to someone trying to debug this, but I've received little/no confirmation or acknowledgement from Wiim that they are even reading my statements, let alone using the...

    USB Support

    My router had IPv6 disabled by default. So I enabled it for the past 12 hours, and the USB discovery behavior didn't change. Still impossible to find the media server, but toggling the IPv6 setting on the amp as a workaround still works (the USB is then immediately found/seen), regardless of...

    USB Support

    I'll try, but I actually don't think this issue has anything to do with IPv6 vs IPv4. My sense is that there is an unrelated origin problem. The IPv6 selection is simply providing a convenient means of resetting/refreshing the media server's networking s/w.

    USB Support

    Thanks, I was sort of expecting that. It makes me wonder what was the point of soliciting my MAC and UUID values? Obviously they weren't necessary for me to update. I initially thought perhaps they were pushing a beta update to me to verify a fix. But it was neither a beta update or a fix...

    USB Support

    Wiim finally responded to my ticket on the 25th, asking me to provide the MAC and UUID of my Amp, because they had a firmware revision to push to me. I responded immediately with that info, and began checking for updates several times a day. Finally, this morning (29th), a firmware revision...

    USB Support

    As far as I can tell, IPv6 is enabled by default when you install the app. I just happened to read somewhere in an old Pro (or Pro+?) thread that some IPv6 issues were causing problems, so I tried disabling it to see if it helped my issue. That worked . . . for a while. But then USB was lost...

    USB Support

    So the mystery continues. The Pixel 6A can see the USB much more consistently than the Pixel 3, although even its not foolproof. I've still had several "where did USB go?" moments w/ the 6A in the past week. But the "big news" is I've discovered that I can "force" the Pixel 3 to see the USB...
