I'm using tidal via mobile to WiiM Ultra to Rega elex mk4

Most times when I change the track or new song starts, a really loud popping noise blasts out of my speakers, which leaves all my listeners and me jumping as it's so intense!

Any ideas what the issue might be?.... I'm not sure if it's the WiiM Ultra issue or my amplifier

Thanks 👍

Seems to be an issue with sample rate switching on the DAC in the Rega e.g. https://www.avforums.com/threads/rega-elex-mk4-integrated-amp-review-discussion.2445164/page-15

You can try turning on the fade-in & fade-out switch under Audio settings on your WiiM, or choose Fixed resolution under the spdif or coax output resolution also from the Audio settings page of your Wiim's device settings

I will try!

I thought I read a post, that made me sign up here to ask, that other WiiM Ultra users where having.

Maybe amplifier issue via optical rather than WiiM Ultra, like you said.

Thanks for looking into it for me, I really appreciate it!!

In addition to @Burnside's suggestion, you can also adjust "Sample rate switch latency" in the optical output settings of the WiiM app 🙂.

Я использую Tidal через мобильный телефон для WiiM Ultra и Rega elex mk.4

В большинстве случаев, когда я меняю трек или начинается новая песня, из моих динамиков раздается очень громкий хлопок, от которого все мои слушатели и я подпрыгиваем, настолько он интенсивный.!

Есть идеи, в чем может быть проблема?.... Я не уверен, проблема ли это в WiiM Ultra или в моем усилителе.

Спасибо 👍

I wrote about this a long time ago, in this topic!
