Introduction


Each input source might have different audio characteristics. For example, a TV might produce different audio profiles compared to a streaming device or a CD player. To address this, WiiM introduces the Per-Source EQ feature. With this feature,  you can optimize audio quality specifically for each source, ensuring a personalized and optimal listening experience.


The Per-Source EQ feature includes two distinct EQ types:

  • Graphic EQ

  • Parametric EQ


Both EQ types allow you to customize settings seperately for each input source, giving you flexible and convenient control over your audio environment. You can save, modify, or delete the EQ settings for an input source without affecting the settings of other input sources. You can also easily assign a custom EQ setting to any other input sources.

How to Use Graphic EQ


Graphic EQ offers intuitive control for you to adjust audio frequencies through 10 fixed frequency bands. It also offers 24 preset EQ settings tailored for various listening scenarios. It is ideal for quick, straightforward audio tuning.


Step-by-Step Instructions


  1. Open the WiiM Home app on your mobile device.

  2. Go to the Devices tab, tap the Device Settings iconof your WiiM device.

  3. Select EQ in the Sound section.

  4. Select the audio source you want to customize (e.g., Wi-Fi, Line In, Optical In, or HDMI ARC, etc).

    Note: To hear the effect of your EQ adjustments in real time, please set the audio source on your WiiM device to the audio source you're adjusting.

     
  5. Switch to the Graphic EQ tab and toggle on EQ.

  6. Adjust EQ settings using any of the following methods:
  • Method 1: Select one of the preset EQ settings based on your listening scenario.

  • Method 2: Use the sliders to adjust the gain levels for the 10 fixed frequency bands. If needed, tap Save to store your EQ settings with a custom name for future use or for other functions (e.g., Presets).

The EQ settings will immediately apply to the selected input source.

How to Use Parametric EQ


Parametric EQ lets you define and adjust up to 10 custom frequency bands, giving you precise control over your sound. It’s ideal for detailed, professional-level audio tuning.
