Where did you purchase it from?

 

Thanks @Linux,

Just before I wanted to buy I was wondering what the repairs situation is.

I have a Squeezebox(repaired and still not quite back to normal) and have learned that there aren't many electronics repair places, hence wondering.

Was thinking on buying at Magnum Sound&Vision

The place that retails the item should be able to point you in the direction of the service agent

I would assume they are not repairable as they are just a processor and dac in a box. Perhaps the PSU in the amp ones is something that might fail and be able to get repaired, but thats a problem for a few years away at least.

Interesting, so basically it is a buy and good luck, if not the latter, throw it away.

If that is the case I'll might try a bit longer with the SQB and go to our local electronic repairs guy.

What is the mid to long term experience for any of you with a Wiim?

My minis are still going strong, the wiim amp is also working well. Just got 2 more of them when mighty ape did a deal on them but not deployed yet as they will be going in some jukebox shells that are sitting in the garage at the moment. 

The wiim ultra is also working fine. There were massive problems with tidal just stopping for me when using tidal connect to it and the mini's but that seems to have all come right with no updates on my part so I am assuming that it was tidals fault.

Have had a play with using roon to the ultra and amp, and it works but the 8th gen $6 celeron I have as a server at the moment is too gutless so it drops all the time. I have a i5 on the way that I was hoping would be here before xmas but its taken the detour thru freightways because aliexpress are idiots and send po box parcels to them sometimes.

Thanks.

As I had some credit at PBT I bought the Pro Plus.

Lets see how it goes.

Hi All,

 

I trust you had a nice Xmas.

 

Is anyone of you able to tell me where I could get a Wiim gadget fixed?

 

Thanks and have a nice break and happy NY

 

CGA should cover you for 5 or so years, and its up to the shop you bought it from to worry about the Repair/Replace/Refund side of things.
