I actually like it
I am actually using it when I didn’t in the past
Ran roomfit accept it then added my eq setting and it sounds good to me

Which target curve did you pick for Roomfit? I choose B&K but if there was a tilt option for EQ I would be more likely to choose flat and then add an EQ on top.

I fully agree, it has the potential to be VERY useful. And as long as you just have one RoomFit profile it already would work nice - problems start when you have slightly more complicated setup requiring multiple room corrections (e.g. WiiM Ultra connected to wo sets of speakers via two ampfiers).

Yea B&k was what I used but I haven’t messed about with it to much as previously I did not like how it sounded
Just used manual eq
I will do more after I get my new speakers in 3 weeks, waste of time until then
Cannot wait to stop using the Sonos speakers tbh

Just did a new flat profile will test tomorrow morning

I am very very sorry if it sounded that I am attacking you - not at all, I very much appreciate your help! I am just a bit frustrated as the much welcome feature actually broke my entire routines due to some tiny UI problem. And in fact I cannot imagine any reason for the presets (or - for the record: outputs) do not include switch for RoomFit - it is not hardware limitation as the gear is perfectly capable of having this applied (I just must apply this manually instead of via pressing button on my remote). Btw: is it anyway to revert to previous firmware and stick to this? - because in fact I would opt for this...

No problem at all
Sorry, I was just joking a bit. I understand your frustrate. When I receive this FW, I will send a request ticket again.

Don't delete the B&K yet

Don't delete the B&K yet

I won’t but all will be deleted and rerun in 3 weeks anyway

 

[Steve Woodhouse]

Are we any closer to being able to choose our own icons for custom presets?

Guys, maybe you would know - is there a way to setup RoomFit / EQ in such manner that it automatically equalizes loudness - i.e. if I push one band higher all other would slightly go down proportionally, so total level is unchanged?

Not that I'm aware of.

You have to wait until it's shown as available for your device. No forced update, no manual side loading.

Is there any real benefit in keeping the average of all PEQ filters the same? How exactly should that average be calculated?

RoomFit now has the "Cut-Only Mode" (for as long as it hasn't been renamed to what @Wiimer suggested). It avoids a boost in any frequency range but does not attempt to give a neutral average. Wouldn't make sense with respect to digital clipping.

It's probably better to work with negative manual PEQ adjustments only, as long as the required gain range is sufficient.

It was only released today, so you should receive it within the next few days.
