    Quick Comparison between Dirac and WiiM mini RC

    Usually I run Dirac on LS50 meta, a B&W ASW610 subwoofer with a Nad C3050LE and the results are so impressive and satisfying to make me find at last even at home the kind of sound I was used to ear many years ago in some well suited recording studios. I tried to do RC with my WiiM mini...

    Tidal Tidal #Tidal frustration

    I noticed this, third part apps give different suggestions, Bluos, WiiM and mconnect are the same but different and less effective than genuine Tidal

    Tidal Tidal #Tidal frustration

    Sometimes I use Mconnect, for other reason but it can drive Tidal also. Not bad but lyrics are still not supported and suggestions differs a lot from original Tidal and are less focused. Is the same with USB audio player?

    Tidal Tidal #Tidal frustration

    Same with Bluos, as written above, a Tidal's fix should be released soon. Tidal is not fast as WiiM support but is anyway better than the bluos one, where every two updates I get a new problem and the fix is always very slow. The last one made impossible to use my WiiM mini on Nad toslink at...

    Tidal Tidal #Tidal frustration

    To activate "connect", tap the speaker icon in "now playing" screen of Tidal app and select WiiM that should be listed. Immediately the stream should be redirected to WiiM directly. You'll keep all the feature from genuine app, like lyrics as example and WiiM app still will show you what is...

    Tidal Tidal #Tidal frustration

    The reason lies in the API's supplied by Tidal to third part developers, they are limited in functionality. The BluOS Tidal interface, it's the same (limited) as the WiiM one. That's the reason why I prefer by far the connect feature from original Tidal app. Same thing happens with all streaming...

    Praise to WiiM development and support

    I'm WiiM mini user since its appearance and I'm still using it, despite the amplifier (Nad C3050LE) has its own Bluos streaming platform. WiiM it's far more versatile and above all, much more reliable. In three years of experience I don't remember a single quirk or anything not promptly solved...

    Spotify Spotify signs Warner Music deal heralding new subscription tiers

    I'm on Tidal since three years ago and never experienced interruptions nor dropouts, maybe it's just luck, anyway you could take the tryout period and verify. I'm liking too its suggestions, especially those from the actual playing song. Tidal connect works very well, not as universal as Spotify...

    Wiim Ultra vs Node Icon

    I hope also, that miniDSP when says in Flex datasheet: "Processing resolution / Sample rate 32 bit/96 kHz (32bit/48 kHz with Dirac Live® license)" means relatively the measure stage or on analog inputs only...

    Wiim Ultra vs Node Icon

    So, if I understood, the measurement it's done at a given frequency and this is not a problem, since it measures the room response shape. Then filtering is applied up to 24KHz and original sample rate of incoming signals are not changed. Filtering over 24KHz, I think it would be absolutely...

    Wiim Ultra vs Node Icon

    I presume you were able to reset and restart. Wich level of Bluos is your Icon? Before the 4.8.7 I had frequent freezes of MDC2 card that needed hard reset. Since they it seems more reliable. I also was thinking to test ethernet cable but amplifier it's in a not easily reachable position...

    Unlisted Which one?

    Nowadays, the editors don't make different masters for each streaming service (even in the past), so expect to find the same quality from any service, there are still urban legends about... I would make the choice in relation to direct use from the original app and not by third-party apps. I...

    Wiim Ultra vs Node Icon

    From the bluos documentation, I can deduce that "replay gain" looks to metadata of reproducing file, regardless it's from a streaming service. Since those metadata are not always precise, at last it doesn't work so well

    Wiim Ultra vs Node Icon

    I think he was meaning the replay gain in audio prefs of Bluos, I noted it makes a mistake with some songs and lowers too much the level, both with tidal and Qobuz....
