Wiim amp low bass and low stage

[Brantome]

I use the Logitech Harmony as a "one remote does all" solution but of course it's not the cheapest of solutions. You can run a "profile" of different devices depending on your activity so in your example, while watching the Shield the remote would still play/pause etc but the volume control would be directed at your Wiim (yes it deals with IR and bluetooth remotes).

Now of course they're no longer available as a new product, you may be able to pick one up 2nd hand or there are other solutions but I can't comment on how effective they are.

I'm not looking forward to the day my remote dies or Logitech remove the back end support.......

The WiiM remote is not compatible with Harmony. You might find some entries for WiiM in the harmony database (I don’t know how they got there) but they don’t work.

As of now, you can either use the PEQ based room correction or you can adjust the sound to your subjective liking using GEQ.

RC results look very reasonable. But if it doesn't match your personal taste, then it doesn't.

You cannot expect any automated process to take into account your personal preferences, though. Not yet. Maybe in the near future ...

You would need to choose a very strange target curve to get close to that response

Yup.

Here you can see if you use the optical output on the Samsung and then want to control the volume with the TV remote control.


I was able to trick the TV though. If a cable is connected to the jack/headphone output at the same time, the volume can be controlled again. The only flaw is that 2 volume controls are then displayed.



I noticed something else:
When I set the TV to optical out, the Output volume is fixed. (RCA cable not connected) Wiim amp is set to max volume.

But the maximum volume is only a liitle bit more the to room volume. Why is it so "quiet"?

You need to ask Samsung.

As I said, the WiiM Amp van put out full power when the input signal is 0 dBFS.

Fair enough. Something I didn't think of yesterday and won't be able to test before I go away for a week and may not be correct. The remotes are paired to the Wiim devices, the ones on the Logitech database wouldn't work for others because of this.

It may be the case, (and I stress may) that a local "learned" remote would work as in theory it's replicating the output of that specific remote. However the pairing may override this.

I’m a long term harmony hub user and while you can learn the IR codes of an other remote, you can’t do that with Bluetooth remotes. WiiM (or more exactly the company who make their remotes) would need to liaise direct with Logitech, I guess in the same way Amazon did with their fire tv remotes which are similar in some respects.

It’s a dead end unfortunately, unless you want to down the road of a project like this which accepts IR codes and maps them on to the WiiM’s http api for limited control.
