    Sound quality when using EQ or Volume Control

    I had originally planned to leave the volume fixed on the Wiim Pro just to get bitperfect pass through, and use the volume control on the Sprout. The only issue with doing that way is that I have to get up and cross the room to physically turn the volume knob on the Sprout. It's certainly...

    Sound quality when using EQ or Volume Control

    Much appreciated! So it sounds like I don't have any need to buy a preamp to get volume control. The Wiim app volume control won't cost me much in terms of fidelity. The last thing I have to figure out then is if it's worth it to get a more powerful amp. I have the first model of the PS...

    Sound quality when using EQ or Volume Control

    Thanks so much for that explanation. I have another question about the volume control. If you enable volume control, does the signal then go through the DAC in the Wiim? Right now, I coax out to a PS Audio Sprout to use the Dac in that unit.

My question is > If you do use volume control or EQ, how much fidelity do you lose? If you start with a 24/192 file, what exactly does the Wiim pass on if you use volume...

    New to all of this > Should I get a different external DAC, in your opinion?

    Hi, I've just put together a stereo system to stream music in our living room. I bought a used PS Audio Sprout (the older 50-watt model) and I refurbed an old pair of JBL L100T speakers. Today, I'm going to order a Wiim Pro and a coax cable. My question is whether or not I should order a...

    Coax cables that fit

    Hi, I'm just about to order a Wiim Pro. I'm going to connect it to a PS Audio Sprout (the old 50-watt model) via coax cable. Question > Does the Wiim Pro come with a coax cable in the box? And if it doesn't, can someone recommend a coax cable that I can order from Amazon that will fit in the...
