    Phono Connections!

    I thought the ground plug and the turntable cable were integrated as one.

    Phono Connections!

    I bought a new wiim ultra but the turntable cables were missing from the package. How do I obtain these cables from Wiim?

    Can Wiim Ultra work on a Grado Moving Iron cartridge?

    Can Wiim Ultra work on a Grado Moving Iron cartridge? If so, ould it be as good as my ART DJ II turntable preamp if so?

    Meet WiiM Ultra - The Digital Hub for Your Music

    I have three questions about the Ultra. 1) I own a Pro Plus currently, is there an audible upgrade if I move to the Ultra? 2) My turntable has a Moving Iron cartridge by Grado Labs. Does the Ultra provide enough signal for this cartridge? And will it sound as good as my ART DJ II Turntable...

    better audio quality

    I'm a musician, so I have a bunch of Pro-AUdio gear and I know Furman products on the pro-audio side of things. I know the power to my house is not the greatest. Lots of noise. So the improvement I claim is that adding this unit to my high-end gear reduced the noise floor thus making the audio...

    better audio quality

    I'm not convinced changing the power supply on the Wiim will make any noticeable (dollars worth) improvement. Before purchasing anything, I'd like to hear what Wiim themselves say about the matter.

    better audio quality

    I did find that buying this unit improved my sound tremendously. https://furmanpower.com/product/15a-prestige-power-conditioner-w-power-factor-technology/. I run a Wiim, into Klipsch LaScala powered by a Decware Tube Rachel.

    Wiim Pro Plus not sounding right when streaming from NAS

    Thanks. I’m currently having to reinstall the OS on the Synology DS220+ because it got sideways somehow.

    Wiim Pro Plus not sounding right when streaming from NAS

    Yes, I was reading others complaining about how complex Plex is and how it is really better for movies not music. ANyhow, I'll have to learn how to get it installed on my Synology NAS.

    So, MinimServer is another way to serve all my FLAC files using my NAS?

    Wiim Pro Plus not sounding right when streaming from NAS

    in regards to Plex Media Server, I'm totally out of my depth. I can't even manage the everyday maintenance on this thing because there is no support and I'm not an Network engineer. Plex offers absolutely no support. Synology is basically the same. I really regret buying my Synology NAS because...

    Wiim Pro Plus not sounding right when streaming from NAS

    You still haven't said what you are comparing it with. Which sources have you used that don't sound thin? What does lack of headroom sound like? ----- Using a CD player and inserting a Store-bought well recorded CD does sound better. Does that answer your question? I don't own a phono pre amp...

    Wiim Pro Plus not sounding right when streaming from NAS

    This is currently my hardware setup. The only thing missing here is a phono pre amp. It terms of the software variables I'm finding Plex media server extremely complicated and impossible to understand. Since there is no support for Plex I'm pretty much lost at the moment.

    Wiim Pro Plus not sounding right when streaming from NAS

    I suppose what I'm really experiencing here is a BIG JUMP up in accuracy of the orig recording....I guess. I mean, this tube amp (Decware) and my Klipsch LaScala's are reproducing the audio and the original recording flaws in my estimation. I did find that when I plugged in a CD into my crappy...
