Ok , now I understand . If it was possible to use the Ultra as a two way stereo dsp crossover , we wouldn’t need an external dsp crossover , such as minidsp .

”- If setting the crossover for the subwoofer in Ultra, prevents the Line-out from playing full-range audio. - Similarly, the EQ settings applied in Ultra are also applied to the Line-out.” ———- Can you clearify what you mean ? What you are writing here about the crossover is exactly what’s...

Does this new firmware allow lowpass filtered subwoofer stereo output at 200 Hz from the stereo line out in the Ultra , while it’s still possible to use toslink out from the Ultra to an external dac sending highpass filtered signal at 200 Hz to the main speakers ? If this is possible , it’s all...

I have had fairly good results having the subwoofer calibration ”on” . However - the best sounding result has been without subwoofer calibration , with the two subwoofers very close to the main speakers. In these case, I have used the frequency range 70-300 Hz for the correction of the main...

Best is ofcourse to measure the frequency range of 300-20000 Hz outside , with the speaker on a high stand. But…. My measurement 70 cm on axis from Genelec 8340 with line audio om1 using sine sweep in the middle of the room ( thick rug on floor ) with 1/6 smoothing shows it’s flat within +-1.5...

Nice to hear !

When correcting the loudspeaker 300-20000 Hz , you can have the microphone about 1 meter from the single speaker at the same height as the tweeter and for best result use a microphone stand. You can sit at listening position 3-4 meters away and see the line from this position , the microphone on...

It can be subjective preferences , but it can also be the kef using sample rate conversion on the incoming digital toslink signal. If that conversion is less good , and maybe using 48 kHz for 44.1 kHz input signal, you can probably hear it. You have also used a digital filter in the ultra...

One trick that’s really great in the Ultra , is that you can do room correction the ordinary way from listening position between 30-300 Hz , and do another correction preset using a good measurement microphone about one meter from only one speaker active, and correct the on axis sound from the...

SRC to 192 kHz or 96 kHz with 44.1 kHz material always worsens the sound , in a way that some may think is an improvement getting the sound harder, thinner and less natural. If you have a dull sounding system this might be heard as a subjective improvement, but in reality, it’s not. There is...

Question - is there any option now to use two WiiM sub pro:s in stereo , through WiFi ? It seems that the dsp processor in the Wiim ultra is more transparent sounding than the Minidsp hd , so if Wiim could make stereo in the bass an option through WiFi it would be great .

The best thing with this Roomfit function is that we in practice have 20 peq bands to play with, combining EQ with Roomfit, with both turned on. This gives us a very nice opportunity to fine tune everything, but also measure from psychoacoustic correct distance with the microphone. One can use...

Ah, ok then the algorithms are possible improved .

It’s fantastic how WiiM keeps developing better software . A further enhancement in soundquality could be if they would be offering 5th order LP/HP crossover ( 30/30 or 30/18dB for using with closed main speakers .) You get a slighty better power response in the room this way compared to...

Thanks for clarifying dominikz, and thanks EddNog for showing an example of use. Just tried the new roomfit correction very quickly and the sound is kind of clearer than before, even using my iPhone 14 as microphone.:) Looks like WiiM are doing the math-crunching in the cloud, possible...
