Naim Uniti 2 as source?

Posted by: Lewis on 31 July 2016

I am currently using a UQ2 through my 32.5, Hi-Cap and Nap 140 as a source, and wonder if it's possible to do the same with a Uniti 2? Reason I ask is because I do quite miss my CDP. Either that or get a Unitiserve and add that into the system. The latter is probably the cheaper option (just about) but I do like the idea of having a simple CDP without losing the digital radio function and everything the UQ offers. I really do love this component and it's one of the most well rounded and useful products I have bought to date.

Yup: the NU2 has a line output, so will work as a source into the 32.5 no problems.

Better yet, Uniti2 has a dedicated fixed Line-level out, which is ideal when it it used as a source into another pre.

You start to amass quite a few boxes with this approach -- any thought to simplifying, perhaps a SuperUniti or N172 or 272? And if you want to start digitizing your cd collection, you might look to use a home computer and a nas; quite a bit more cost-effective than the UnitiServe.
