Ah, thank you. I've read that post a few times but was considering it only with passive speakers. I didn't find any value in having the displays on a center and the two rear surrounds in a 5.1, but with the Wiim Sound Lite I'm reconsidering this option. Seems for me a much better idea than...

In that scenario, there are actually six discrete channels as you would have with an AVR? And that could/would be a persistent setup that could be a preset grouping?

Any chance of getting them to add the feature matrix to the bottom of the page for new products like there is for the earlier releases? That was a fantastic comparison too that has helped my with my past purchases.

US Inventory (Maybe a Ryan Question)?: Was just about to order from Amazon US. Since if first showed up there it's always been black (my preference) but no white. Today I went to order a black Sound and the option is white but no black. Curious what the inventory situation is, and when the...

So you're the other one who watched this. Was just about to post this, just rewatched recently. Not to be confused in any way with "The Patriot".

Thanks, appreciate the detailed response. And not just on this thread, have learned a lot reading your posts and those of many of the more knowledgeable people in this forum. Order placed.

So if I want this for my bedroom where I listen in the dark before going to sleep and want zero light, that's achievable using the toggles? With no wake exceptions you're aware of? If I can do that as simply as toggling a setting in the app and it holds, I'd order the Amp Ultra for this room...

Amazon US now showing available for what is essentially a pre-order, with estimated arrival of December 16-January 21. Wonder how many unit sales Wiim ends up losing because of the government shutdown and resulting delay in the approval process cost them. Has to be frustrating for them missing...

Government shutdown ended, so hopefully the FCC can get this approved and the US market will see it soon. Hoping for more purchase options than Amazon!

Thanks for the update and the, candor on the reason for the delay. Not the first connected product with a delayed U.S. Launch because of the shutdown impacting FCC approval. What if I pinkie swear not to connect it to wi-fi?

I'm planning on picking up one for my kitchen to try it out, and if I'm happy with the sound potentially getting 4-5 more. For satellite rooms like the kitchen where it's a standalone and I'm moving around a lot, I like the idea of the display. But for 2 of the units where it would be a...

Apologies if this has been suggested/debated before, but I wasn't able to locate a discussion of this; I have about 5,000 albums worth of music on my NAS. When I use the "Browse->Local Music Share" menu in the Wiim Home app I can sort by album, artist, etc. Fine for a small library. The...

Agreed, would love to have an option that I feel better about giving my money to than I do Amazon. Crutchfield used to carry Wiim products a couple of years ago, but that out of stock status has been going on for some time now.

Also, anyone know if I'm correct in the assumption that they are identical except for the display? One display might be nice, but I don't see much need or desire for the extra visual clutter of two displays if I'm using a pair, so seems like one Sound and one Sound Lite would make more sense...

Until further clarification, I'm going to assume that both "i"s are pronounced like Hawaii, making it a two syllable word. Either that or both are silent and it's more of a meditation chant than a word.
