Stream to early UnitiQute from Spotify

Posted by: thealphabeta on 23 August 2016

Hi All

I have a UnitiQute V2 (but actually with V1 backplate, confirmed by Naim).  I've had major problems trying to update the firmware to make the most of Spotify etc which I use a LOT!  This has been incredibly frustrating.  

I decided to explore other options and ended up buying the Google Audio receiver which I plugged in with 3.5mm to RCA to my UnitiQute.  Works like a charm.  Very reliable indeed.  Also as I have one on my B&W A7 in the kitchen (the connection via wifi is woeful) I can also have multiroom running which is a nice touch too.  For £30 a pop it was a no brainer.

Hope this might help someone else who may also have an issue.

Cheers

David
