Science questions itself, yes. But when it’s had research, duplicated and peer reviewed, repeatedly, it accepts those results as the current state of play until further research shows it to be erroneous. That’s quite different to what you’re proposing, which is to believing something at odds...

…and a lot of questions which have been asked and answered.

Now, that'd be an idea. A soundbar, with the option to add the sub and/or Lites for rear duties.

People have been asking for WiiM to make a portable speaker, and I've just had an idea for a name.

Cheers, I wouldn't have seen it in the other fred.

Missed that.

I have smart presets for that, not just turning room correction off, but my headphones require different EQ to my speakers.

I use my Ultra's analogue outs to my speaker amp, and digital out to my DAC/headphone amp. Works a treat. If you have your Ultra connected to the Vibe digitally, use the analogue outs to a vanilla headphone amp - no DAC required.

And if that made a real-world difference to the sound it would show up with provable audible differences in distortion measurements. Which tends not to happen with decent DACs.

Does anyone actually look at these meters for an accurate (to the dB) indication of the material being played? I suspect most look at it (a) as nice dancing needles, or at most (b) a general indication of the volume going up and down, rather than reading the numerical indicators on the meter.

Have you tried folder.jpg ?

And the Windows app is barely bloomin' started!

Thanks for the update. I had been hoping it'd be earlier. My daughter's birthday is on 27th October, so it's almost certainly not going to be available in the UK before then. However, she's already getting a fair whack off me for her birthday, so if I giver her this a month later there's...

Actually, more than I remembered. A10 has a 3" woofer, WiiM 4". A10 is c.50W, WiiM 100W.

There’s not a lot in it with the A10, as far as I can see. Not checked for a while.
