My WiiM Amp tests

[onlyoneme]

Mine is also a "2" and has the buzzing sound. Maybe 4 is the fixed PCB?

I would guess it's somewhat improved at least. The second revision of the Pro Plus got increased PCB_version.

I see the post now. Sounds like they are also still having some minor coil whine on their version "4". Hmm.

It can be also irrelevant as the whole PCB_version story is just my theory.

I’ve posted this question in its own thread, but I thought posting it here might alert those who know their measurements and can do the sums.

Would the WiiM amp be able to drive a pair of Revel M106 speakers? Used in a room 3m x 5m, but at a distance of around 1.25m. I never listen at ear-bleeding loud levels.

Performa3 bookshelf loudspeakers are true full-range loudspeakers that blend-in easily with your existing décor. They deliver an impressive combination of wide frequency range, uncompressed dynamic range and low distortion across the entire audible spectrum.

Many thanks.

They’re 8ohm speakers so i don’t see an issue

My unit's serial number starts with P1TF2350 plus five more digits. That might indicate a manufacturing date in week 50 of 2023.

Mine would be from week 45 if such a correlation is valid.

My serial number says completely differently FF98F359D360221B0D3A2A75

this looks like the format of my device's UUID, the serial was on a sticker on the side of the box and on the bottom of the device

One huge advantage this device has over say a Fosi Audio V3 as far as load dependence issues is the PEQ built in - effectively variation in higher frequencies can be fixed with a single filter.

Yes this is a very big advantage even compared to amplifiers that measures better . The PEQ functionality is also one of the main reason to buy a WiiM streamer . This will make a ls50 sound better in real life in the listening room, as an example.

at a distance of around 1.25m. I never listen at ear-bleeding loud levels.

Any amp will play pretty loud at such a close distance, so you should be fine. But that is pretty close so do experiment with the tilt and toe of the speakers.
