Nice one Bob. I'm up at Liverpool this weekend, gonna be having a tour round the city in Lennon's Roller today, Yippee!), but now I'm excited to be getting back home and checking out my Wiim Pro Plus and seeing if that's now got the room correction. What fun! Nice vid once again.

Hey Bob. Great channel. I'm using the Wiim Amp in a desktop nearfield application paired with Dali Spektor 2 Speakers. Lovely combo for under $600. Mostly Spotify streaming connected via Ethernet. I've activated the Room Correction and thus far I prefer it over no EQ.

The room correction is a lovely bonus for this amp. I don't care how it measures. I've got it hooked up to some 3030i speakers and it sounds great.

Hello, our leader. Tom here from Sacramento, CA. You have no need to change or add to the United States of Analog. It is perfect. No matter the source, the media, the amp, or whatever. If digital, it converts to analog. No matter what our brains hear in analog. So how one get it there is everyone to decide. That is the fun with the United States of Anolog. Thank you, agan my leader, for the great content. Tom

The room correction is for Apple phones only. But Wiim is awesome. And thats some classic vinyl you got there. Keep up the great work.

Maybe for Samsung and Google phones but honestly we probably won't see the feature on Android, just too much hardware variation out there. At some point I suspect Wiim will pack in their own microphone since they are still limited by what the iPhone's mic can cover frequency wise.

Looking to pair this Wiim with an ATLP120X/2m Blue, Fosi Box, Elac 2.0s Debuts, and a powered Sony sub. Seems like this will be a perfect fit. Thanks for your videos.

I love when the "audiophile" KZitemrs review a $70 components and then summarize it... "but for only an extra $,1000you can get soooo much better sound quality". Well, if someone is watching $70 component review they probably don't have extra $1,000... heck, they probably don't have extra $100. It is a abouy best sound quality on very low budged and not about best sound quality possible. 🤷♂️

Don't work, can't work. Especially using a mic on your I phone. Will it CHANGE the sound? I have no doubt it will. The math for room correction is beyond difficult. Before you can even begin to "correct" anything, you need to know the absorption and reflective properties of every item in that room. Then you'll get false readings from even the finest mics, which cannot distinguish between floor bounce and the woofers direct sound, nor splash off the cabinet vs direct sound from the tweeter, but it will try to "correct" for it. EQ on a speaker, which i'm guessing is all this Wiim "audiophile" freebie does, adds time delays, another thing the "room correction" cannot correct. "Audiophile" freebie. Hardly. Unless, of course, by saying "Audiophile" you mean destroying the musical waveform even more. The term audiophile has been butchered by the "Fun fi" reviewers. When do we get the "Audiophile Clock radio"?

You used the spastic in the sentence 'was acting a little spastic'. This is extremely offensive and derogatory as a descrpitor. Disabled people have been Subject to this word as a derisory term, not matter what their disability, for decades. Please retract this and please don't use it in this capacity.

Very gracious response, Bob. It is certainly a derogatory term in the UK. Don't know about the rest of the world. It's easy to slip up and the big boys deal with making a mistake the way you did. Speaking as an MS sufferer, good job.
