    What external DAC to improve the Ultra?

    People need to understand while there is nothing wrong with an excellent external DAC like Geshelli Labs, the entire system is going to be reflected in the final output. That's why you don't see the outcome you anticipate. Most midfi systems are not going to get any dynamic jump by adding an...

    WiiM Pro optical ground loop

    You should switch out the optical cable and start there. Put in a nice glass toslink cable. They are not expensive these days.

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    Just wanted to note that the renaming of my WiiM Pro also resolved the issue I ran into too. Now I can run QC from any IOS device without having to keep the Mac OS Qobuz application open once again. Wow, that is surely interesting and WiiM may want to make this a sticky. Could not understand...

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    Yes, but unsure what is the origination of the issue. It occurred after an earlier WiiM firmware upgrade didn't take cleanly. So, I had to do an additional reboot and that's when it began. I may drop an email to Qobuz @ support-help@qobuz.com as they are pretty good at looking into issues...

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    So, after a recent initial firmware upgrade weeks back that required a reboot, still seeing that weird reliance where the Qobuz desktop version on Mac OS is required to be active for the IOS devices to connect. Without it, the IOS devices will spin six times attempting to connect to QC and then...

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect Ultra not found?

    No longer. Official launch for Qobuz Connect is today. On IOS, an update went from 9.0.0 to 9.0.1 https://community.qobuz.com/press-en/qobuz-launches-qobuz-connect-a-feature-that-simplifies-and-enhances-the-listening-experience

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    Great idea and so I did it. Noticed with the beta version the same slip back on IOS devices was happening. That was concerning because the WiiM QC beta did not do that earlier. Then I updated once again to the current firmware. Saw the same spinning beachball effect trying to switch and lock on...

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    No, I've not fiddled with any of this. The iPhone is already set to FIXED. The iPad is older OS and shows Private IP address as on. I'll reboot the router too though. Once again today, I saw the issue but when the Mac OS desktop Qobuz application connects to Qobuz Connect, the other devices...

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    Did the WiiM Pro three times. Did not reboot the router. Today, noticed the same issue on IOS devices. They spin when choosing Qobuz Connect. Once the desktop Qobuz application is opened and connected to Qobuz Connect then both IOS devices can connect. The iPad easily connected then. The...

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    Did the WiiM firmware update today and it turned hell on IOS. Can't lock on to Qobuz Connect from an iPhone or iPad. Same ones that worked just fine the other day (as I noted here earlier). After the WiiM update, neither IOS device would lock on to Qobuz Connect. It could select every other...

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    Yes, the IOS Apple Store has Qobuz and visited it seeing "update" to the new version for QC. On the Mac OS desktop, I restarted the Qobuz application and then it showed atop that an update awaited. So I hit that and restarted again with the QC download version. In about it says, "8.0.0-b009...

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    Can you confirm the Qobuz version? Yesterday, I restarted the app when I heard about the release. It then showed atop that it needed to relaunch for an update. When I did, it logged me out and I had to then log back in from the Qobuz website. When I logged back in, a popup on the Qobuz desktop...

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    Hi again, I'm not using Wi-FI. Everything going in via Ethernet here. Only one limited song compared via the WiiM app using Qobuz after the Room Correction was rerun. A further listen maybe tomorrow when I can compare and monitor volume for each.

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    Hi Ed, sorry for the inverted response. I've not been able to run all the iterations. I noted the specific instance referenced in the update. Tomorrow I may have time to test further. The limited listening I did late this evening sounded similar but it was only one song. It came after I reran...

    Qobuz Qobuz Connect released

    Hi Ed, - in my system this is a dramatic improvement vs. Chromecast. I've been listening to various music and it's across the board from 44K material to 192K as noted above. I've been looking forward to putting QC through its paces and it exceeded my hopes in the listed setup. My system is...
