I should be grateful for some understanding and advice in respect of a problem I have just encountered in attempting to rip a CD in dB Poweramp.   For the first time in almost 600 CDs the rip simply refused to work, and the message under the...

I've been doing some tests with various music servers (Asset, Plex, Minim and Twonky) both on a Qnap NAS, and my iMac. The NAS is Ethernet wired to a switch, then connected to my ND5. The iMac is connected to the network via WiFi.    Without...

I've recently switched to Minimserver on my QNAP Nas so that I can transcode from FLAC to WAV. All has been good apart from one strange problem I get intermittently.   Occasionally when playing HiRes material it will insert a short pause every 20...

Not pleased at all with the process of updating Firmware for my NDX. I have spent over 4 hours today trying to complete, this following a purchase of a Plugable RS232 to USB (Manual says NaimUniti, UnitiQute, NDX These products feature a 9-pin RS232 port. Connection requires either: -A 9-pin to 9-pin RS232 cable to connect directly to the RS232 port on the PC (if present). Or -A 9-pin RS232 to USB adaptor combined with an FTDI or Prolific driver – examples can be found below: So where is the...

I realise that I could - and may have to - post this on a Synology forum, but I know there are a lot of knowledgeable people here, so I thought I'd give this a go first.   I have used for about 3 years a Synology DS411j for two purposes (i) as a...

I had great problems with the Naim app. Can't find Uniti, no network, etc. Tried everything, nothing worked. Than, at last I removed "adblock" app from iphone, ipad and OUT of the store, last thing was very important. Now, everything works perfect...

I just love the sound quality of my HDX.   This weekend, I did some comparisons in the realm of playing files from the internal 2 TB disk.   The difference between WAV and FLAC files was HUGE.   If anyone cannot hear this difference by...

Hi,   I recently had an issue with my HDX, which, when powering it back up following a period away from home, remained stuck on "Starting" on the display.   I searched the forum, and discovered that others had experienced the same problem,...

In this dutch article is write that some people at Latham Audio ( dutch Naïm dealer) listened to a lossless cloudstream in cd quality with a betafirmware.

I just purchased a s/h ND5XS and purchased/downloaded dbpoweramp and asset. I ripped some CDs and the player and asset were all working great until I tried to get fancy and change some asset settings. I'm still working on the asset problem but in the...

I noticed that when I'm transcoding on the fly to my UQ2, from an Asset uPnP server, switching flac or alac to WAV - i can't scrub the files, i.e., can't wind a song in a bit. Is that a limitation of transcoding? 

i've just upgraded to Superfast broadband and TalkTalk will be sending me a new router. Does anyone have experience of these, or should I discard it in favour of a Negear? I'm already using a Netgear switch.   Keith
