I have an app called dB, which uses the iPhone mic. Shows SPL with four curve options. It assured my tweeters were not blown. I might have mentioned I’m old, and not the best judge of high end.

Why is it impossible to work with a sub woofer setup? I do! 2.2!
I am constantly surprised by Wiim, in a good way, and since I bought my Wiim Pro it has evolved into probably the best value purchase I've ever made. I bought it on the strength of it's support for Amazon Music and bit perfect DLNA streaming, if it had stayed as it was when I bought it, it would still be my best option now if I was looking for a streamer. The fact it has improved so much is awesome, and all for free!!I don't understand the mixed reception for this feature. It works more than I expected and my system has never sounded this good. For once, I'm not disappointed but surprised
Need a dedicated subwoofer out, so in effect the streamer should be "three channels"
That's what the WiiM Ultra will provide and what the WiiM Amp does already provide. Troll landco didn't know that, so @MCG555 told him he's wrong.
That's it.

Absolutely this. I originally bought a WiiM Mini for its support of Amazon Music Unlimited. The fact that it was bit perfect was a bonus.
Then they added PEQ and Squeezlite to the Pro, so I upgraded to the Pro as my Logitech Squeezeboxes were getting old and were obsolete and would have to be scrapped if they failed. I can use WiiM Pro's instead.
Finally they have added Room Correction. As an Android user I will have to wait and to buy a USB C microphone, but it is something worth trying and has the potential to transform how my hi fi sounds.
WiiM are a company that has taken the old adage "delight you customers" and fed it steroids.
Well done WiiM, not many companies exceed my expectations and genuinely delight me, but you have and all at very affordable prices. You have redefined the definition of value for money.

Does WiiM Pro and WiiM Mini have room correction?
Pro has been updated with RC but also you need to update wiim app in case you have not. Mini does not support RC.

Why?
Hardware limitation.

What specific restrictions are we talking about? The developers didn't tell you more?
Starting with cpu and memory. It will get 10 band eq. On wiim mini roadmap, it wasn’t listed but the rest of the line was included as it had more powerful hardware.
Wiim aren’t that expensive you can get pro for 150 on amazon. Pro will continue get advanced features as it has same cpu and memory as the rest of the line. I have pro, mini and amp.

The Mini has half the cpus and a quarter of the RAM compared to its bigger siblings, and already doesn’t support all the features that they do. I don’t think we need ask the developers…
Edit: although it should also be pointed out that the last time it was raised, WiiM did say they were investigating the possibility that the Mini might be able to support RC. So maybe it might come, but the fact that RC has already rolled out to all other models could suggest they did come to the conclusion that the mini isn’t up to it when it comes to RC.

I’m currently using smsl do200 mkii as dac and preamp on connected pro via optical. ASR rated do200 among the finest measurements. The sound is transparent and neutral. Will ultra onboard dac outperform my setup? I will find out soon!

This is not the reason. For reference, in the early 2000s, a complex for room correction MLSSA was released, which worked with even weaker hardware
Lamborghini for the price of beer won’t cut it. People should think that for longevity should invest the middle ground model to avoid regret down the line.
If RC is possible on mini, don’t you think wiim already incorporate them? Send message on wiim app so you can get direct answer from Wiim themselves.
