Room Fit strangeness

[deanerino]

Finally finally got my Dayton Audio mic and the calibration file downloaded and incorporated into the Wiim app. The sound is mahvelous! The strangeness is while calibrating the speakers, the screen asks "Did you hear deep bass?" Well, no. All we heard was something like running water while a shape revolves on the screen. Instead of "play again" for the third time, I went to next as it's the only option, even though I did not hear "deep bass". I don't have a sub woofer, just some neumi BS5's and my bass response dives off a cliff at about 75hz or so. So maybe it was there and we really didn't hear it. Be that as it may, for folks like me, it seems a little confusing. Or maybe there's something I'm missing? It seemed loud enough? Is the software asking me to make it louder until I hear the "deep bass" ? thanks.

This sounds like a bug. Admittedly, I've never been asked that question. It sounds like it might be intended for use with the WiiM Sub Pro or an upcoming calibration process in multi-channel configuration. Maybe the wrong string slipped into the standard RoomFit code.

What is your WiiM device and which firmware revision is it on? Which is the version number of the WiiM Home app?

If you find the time to do so it would be great if you could take a screenshot and send it to WiiM directly through the WiiM Home app: Tap on "More...", the "Feedback". You can describe your finding and attach screenshots (or other files if needed).

Hi @deanerino,

This is our stupid mistake on the Android app, we will fix it ASAP.

Roomfit doesn’t seem to do anything on Pro Plus. I change settings and profiles and turn it on and off and no change where I used to hear significant changes between profiles. No deep bass despite it showing a boost of 12 db. I have two REL subwoofers and could get tremendous bass before. Turn Roomfit on, turn it off, turn eq on, turn it off. Change eq settings. Nothing works.

I'm currently in the same situation with the WiiM Amp Pro. Have these RoomFit profiles been imported from prior runs into the new format?

In any case you should send feedback to WiiM directly through the WiiM Home app: tab "More..." => "Feedback". This will include device logs for WiiM to analyse.

I will do the same.

Edit: This could also be related.to the WiiM Home version. Yet another reason to file a ticket.
