Radio 3 streams in hi-res I believe. Unsure why only Radio 3 though. I'm also a little confused as I'm reading that we can still access the live streams, just not the catch-up stuff? Hoping that I don't miss out on my Essential Mixes etc. I love getting up on Sat morning and catching the end...

Are those streams working now? They seem to be intermittently active. I was using them to listen on my phone with my XM5's. Always thought it was odd that in 2025 the BBC had such low quality streams. As long as I don't lose 6Music and Pete Tong / E-mixes, I'll be OK!

So BBC Sounds App is going to be useless to us ex-pats who escaped Blighty. From 21st July. How will this affect the ability to stream BBC stations via the Wiim app?

Unlikely. Never gets disconnected and it's not in a position where it could be accidentally knocked. Just seems to have factory reset itself but weird my searches are still there.

Just got up and tried to use my Mini but it seemed to have factory reset. Lost all settings and favourites, my EQs etc. But weirdly my searches were still there. Was there a FW overnight that might have caused this ? Never happened before. Bloody annoying.

That's one way. But the Wiim amp takes up a lot less space. A cleaner look than having an amp, tuner, streamer and DAC. Also newer tech. Subwoofer management. A remote control. More power. That amp is from 97. Was a What Hifi Award winner. I think it's time it retired.🤓

Dining room / kitchen setup. Love the sound. The Q Acoustics punch way above their weight, just lack the low end the old Cerwin's had, but they had 12" main drivers. The Q's are great but I'm tempted with a sub, but that means an amp upgrade. I might be talking myself into a Wiim amp haha! The...

Anyone in Australia located one? Wondering how much they'll be here - they won't be 299 I know that much.... I'm just preparing myself for the price.

I will sort out the FM aerial (eventually).... The case for the Denon Tuner was really scratched so I bought a can of black acrylic non gloss, removed the metal case and gave it a once over. Looks a million times better. Now I'm hunting a period placed CD player with coax out and I'll run that...

Kool FM London playing reggae to me in Australia via vTuner.

Just downsized speakers as the Cerwin's were a tad big for the dining room / second system. Ended up with some lovely little Q Acoustic 3030i. Very impressed so far. Marantz PM66 SE amplifier Denon TU 270l tuner SMSL SU-1 DAC Wiim mini Fancy looking Aliexpress interconnects Cable Talk speaker...

I wish there was a way of saving more than 1 custom EQ setting. I have different set ups depending on source so would be great to have maybe 3 custom EQs saved.

Mungo's HIFI new album

The screenshot is from the Windows version of the Wiimhome app. You replied then it disappeared? You're confusing me. Earlier you said non uk 6music was 48kbps (and 320 if you're in the uk). But my app shows 320. I'm in Australia. I'm not using a VPN. Where is wiim pulling the stream from? Is...
