Connecting ND5XS

Posted by: Fabio 1 on 10 June 2018

Hi all,

yesterday I took my new ND5XS home,it's an ex demo from my dealer,one year old.Very good deal indeed.This morning I'm trying to connect it to my 282.I first noticed that the bluetooth aerial plug on the real panel of the streamer is not present on the paper manual and also on the one from the Naim site.That was not a problem because I just connected the two aerials,wi-fi and bluetooth,at their place.Maybe my streamer is recent and the manuals are not updated?I went on configuring my home wi-fi with its password:all went ok.I then connected the streamer to the DIN cd input of my 282 and...my proac are silent.I also tried AUX 1 but no way.Any help please?Today is Sunday and my dealer is closed.Thank you.

Fabio

he is referring to the output settings on your ND5.

And yes it was only fairly late ND5 XSs that had Bluetooth. But that doesn't  affect it working with your 282 of course.

Esatto, fà come dicono Raymond e Trevor.

Controlla che nelle impostazioni di ND5XS  sia l'uscita analogica DIN quella selezionata.

Jolly good

Let us know your impressions once you get accustomed to.

By the way is the DSP firmware  up to current 4.6 specs?

Glad it is working now. Nice Carravagio, I have seen it in the Florence gallery.

Thank you Thebigfredc.Tony,how can I check DSP is updated?

Fabio, if not using the App, you can check on the front screen - just press the spanner key on the remote and check in Settings under System Status and then Version.

Thank you Richard.What a Forum!I'm checking it right now.

DSP 2.56.19

DSP BOOT 2.00.00

Tomorrow I will call my dealer also for the Naim app I will have to use with my Samsung tablet.Thanks everybody.

Posted on: 10 June 2018 by David Hendon

Fabio you can just download the Naim app from the Android Playstore and install it on your Samsung tablet. No need to talk to the dealer! Just search for Naim.

Also regarding the firmware version, forget about DSP version. That's irrelevant. The latest firmware version is 4.6 but very likely your ND5 XS will be on 4.4

The Naim app is on my Tab3 lite now.Finally.It works great and now  I understand what a lot of people on here mean for easy of use.Next step is downloading Tidal and rip my cds in an external HD.Ciao.Ad maiora!

Hi Fabio, 

nice, it would be interesting you try your ND5xs pre firmware update and afterwards and share your findings accordingly.

Unless you've updated in the meantime.
