▲ 5 r/wiim

Wiim ultra is fantastic !

I have this setup

KEF R11 Meta / R6 Meta > ATI AT3003 > Onkyo RZ50 > HSU VTF TN1

I used okay audio from the YouTube app on the G5 tv connected through earc and the audio was fantastic. If I did an airplay / Bluetooth to the RZ50 the quality was audibly poor. I just didn’t want to turn on the tv everytime for music playback.

Enter wiim ultra and boy it is fantastic. I’ve connected wiim through optical to the RZ50 and the audio quality is fantastic!! Exactly what I was looking for.

  1. My tiny complaint is I’ve not been able to do multiple profiles on the Wiim app, so me and my wife can both stream our music. Both of us different lists. Is there a way to do that ?

  2. One other question is, I have the Klipsch fives in a different room, I love the Wiim app so much that I want to get another Wiim for that. Will the mini do fine ? Right now I’m doing Bluetooth to it.

External facing roadmap tool for B2B

What does everyone use for an external facing roadmap?

I’ve evaluated / used these

Productboard - Has customer facing roadmap (we used this a few years ago, turned out to be too expensive for what we are doing)

Canny - looks and feels just like Productboard for a fraction of the cost but external roadmaps is weak and it’s not rich text image friendly.

Jira product discovery - Requires Atlassian account

Our product has an SSO and it would be awesome if that sso can grant access to this roadmap tool as well and customers can vote on features and see what’s coming up.

Any recommendations ?

Dirac Live on KEF R11 and VTF TN1

Hi ! After adding an AMP I’ve been using the same Dirac config, so I thought I’ll re run Dirac with the AMP. The instructions on the volume screen suggest I aim the sub to be 3 db above the LCR. I was able to do this fine without the AMP. Now with the AMP, the LCR are loud enough and it’s impossible to get the sub to be louder. The sub is already around the 12 o clock position (or half way mark for gain).

I’ve been using ChatGPT to calibrate everytime and it says it’s fine if the sub is lower and says that it’s because of the AMP. Should I continue as is and do the calibration ?

And one other question, should I do Dirac with L and R alone for a 2.1 setup for music ? Or just changing the channels in the receiver with the 3.1 settings will do?
