Dynamics control and/or dialogue enhancement

[cosmic microwave]

I'm not sure what kind of onboard DSP capabilities the Ultra has, but I think it would be useful if there were some sort of dynamics control, like a "night mode" for using HDMI ARC as a home theater setup. While I appreciate movies and shows with a big dynamic range of sounds, it would be nice to have some volume levelling ability when listening at lower volumes. Some TVs have this feature built in, but it usually doesn't affect the digital audio output. Basically, a mode that keeps the quiet parts and loud parts at a more even loudness level.

Similarly, it would be nice to have a Dialogue Enhancement mode as well that exists as a separate toggle outside of the EQ. That way we can still use our room correction EQ curve, but have the option to apply a dialogue boost on top of it.

Yes please!! My wife is sensory and doesn't like my very dynamic speakers (mission 770). I always had the compression enable on the Apple TV 4k when it was part of my system. Would be really useful to have this feature on Wiim.

Hi DonnFizzle, Team

In the WiiM Home App, try the EQ preset Spoken Word - perfect for night mode while watching TV. Give it a try and let us know your experience!
