Hi everyone,

We’re currently developing EQ Import for WiiM devices, supporting formats such as REW EQ files and AutoEQ configurations.
To make this feature compatible with as many real-world use cases as possible, we’d love your help.

📝 What We’re Looking For​

If you have used:

  • REW exported EQ files (e.g., TXT format, Filter Export files)
  • AutoEQ-generated EQ settings (e.g., Parametric EQ files, CSV/TXT outputs)
  • Any custom EQ configuration files you normally use
We would greatly appreciate it if you could share a few sample files with us.

📤 How You Can Help​

Please upload your EQ files (any formats you usually use) in this post or send them to support@wiimhome.com.
The more samples we can study, the more accurate and user-friendly the EQ import feature will be for everyone.

🔒 Privacy Note​

All files will only be used internally for analyzing format structures and ensuring compatibility.
No personal information is required or stored.

🙏 Thank You​

Your contributions will directly help us build a more powerful and flexible EQ system — especially for advanced users who rely on REW or AutoEQ for fine-tuned listening.

We truly appreciate your support!

I fully agree that it would be great to have a simple bass/treble (or just a single tone tilt) control in the WiiM Home App - that would make it much simpler to adjust tonality on the fly.

For now you can make use of the PEQ shelf filters to do the same thing - though it is not as intuitive.

Here's how to do that:
  1. Open the WiiM Home App
  2. Select your WiiM device
  3. Tap on the gear icon
  4. Go to the EQ menu
  5. Choose PEQ Mode: Stereo
    • Bass Control (low-shelf):
      • Filter=LS
      • Freq=100Hz
      • Gain=according to your preference
      • Q=0.70
    • Treble Control (high-shelf):
      • Filter=HS
      • Freq=4000Hz
      • Gain=according to your preference
      • Q=0.70
Example of how this might look for the Bass Control set with -3dB gain:
1765638060086-png.30922


You can then save a few PEQ profiles with different gain values, and then assign them to Presets in the WiiM Home app - that gives you the ability to change Bass/Treble balance by press of a button (you can change presets from the remote, or from the WiiM Home app).

E.g. you could have Preset 1 with EQ disabled, Preset 2 with +3dB bass, Preset 3 with -3dB bass , Preset 4 with -1dB treble, etc..

Hope this helps!
Should I use LS filter or Is it better to just increase gain in Sub out or SVS app to get more bass after room fit?

It is better to use an LS PEQ filter.
Adjusting subwoofer gain can degrade the response around the crossover, while using LS-type PEQ preserves it (and allows you more flexibility, since you can easily adjust the frequency range where it applies).

It is worth adding that as long as you don't use close to 100% volume in WiiM Home App there's basically no danger of digital clipping when adding a little boost with PEQ shelving filters. In case you use the "fixed volume" option in WiiM Home App then you should use the "volume limit" function to compensate for any boost you add with PEQ.

Thank You for such a prompt replay. I also was thinking that adjusting subwoofer gain could act only up to crossover frequency, but LS PEQ filter eg. 100 Hz, 3 dB, Q=0.7 would cover both speakers and sub response.
