Hi there,

Yesterday I've played with equalizer in my Wiim Pro Plus. I tried both (graphic and parametric) but each of them gave me poor results. I was increasing bass frequencies 31Hz to 250Hz (2db to 3 db) and every time it gave me bulky non detailed bass. Detail in bass frequencies was gone mostly. I've set Volume Limit to 95% to give it some digital headroom. I tried lower values but results was the same.
I thought to myself... meehh maybe it's my speakers... They are not good enough to manage that 2bd frequency bass boost.

Then I tried Roon Magic happened! I could increase bass region even to 6bd and the grip and controll and detail was there!
So... what happened?! Is it not possible with Wiim because of hardware limitations? I run Roon server on my powerhorse PC so could that be reason for different results?

So 2 questions:
1. Is it still possible somehow to achieve Roon results on Wimm Pro Plus?
2. My dream is to have that Roon quality equaliser on hardware so it could be available for TV, CD, streaming etc. MiniDSP maybe?
