Hi My brother has an NDX and XPS2 power supply connected to a MF nuvista amp. Everything is fine until he connects a Sennheiser hdvd800 headphone amp to the line out of the nuvista. With hdvd switched off, the sound is distorted and quite low in...
I have a few 'Qutes in bedrooms, study and kitchen and a NDS.
I can listen to the cricket on two of my 'Qutes but not on the other gear. The DAB signal fluctuates. I have tried Internet radio but it only works when using the BBC radio player on my...
Have just ripped a CD of Lotti's Requiem on my HDX. Everything looks fine all tracks and other info visible and editable. However it won't play! The NServe app shows all the tracks and the header play bar appears and everything looks as if it about to...
I really like my UnitiServe, which has given sterling service over the past 18 months. It holds all my 2,300 albums and works faultlessly. All the albums are backed up on my Synology 213j NAS, which has two 3TB drives fitted. Now that all...
Hello, Since months now I'm struggling with my Naim HDX and my Synology NAS (DS412+). My HDX is running on version 1.7b. For a description of the stores I'm using, see the end of this post. Here's my problem: 1) I can play...
Hi, Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.... Could I use this Devolo powerline adapter to take Unitiqute2 upstairs and plug it into the wired ethernet connection of the adapter? And then this be as secure connection as the...
Looks like there was a more reasonable explanation for all those ex-dem NAC 282s after all.
Hi, I have the HDX connected to the CD-In in the Snait 2. Now I looked up some connection schemes on the Naim Audio page and found one where the NDX was connected to the HDD IN port on the Snait 2. Question: Is there any difference between these two...
Hi, I have original and re-issue versions of many albums because of dynamic range differences. For instance original from 1988 with catalogue number 4711 and re-issue of the same album from 1998 with catalogue number 4722. ...
Hi all. I have recently discovered how much better Tidal is than Spotify. So far I have listened by plugging my iPad into the USB socket and that works nicely and I am pretty happy with what I hear. But I would prefer not to have to leave something plugged into the front socket, it looks messy, and have to get up and fiddle with it when I want to change what I am listening to (though the exercise is probably good for me!) So, Sonos Connect seems to be the option of choice to connect to one...
Hi, I am looking for a good working NAS solution as backup for my 2TB HDX. I would not necessarily stream from the NAS but have 2 drives as RAID 1 for additional secure backup. Now, I can see ReadyNAS, Synology and others on the net, ranging from around 150 € up to many hundred and further. But what do I really need for my purpose? Thanks, Chris
I bought a Mu-so last week. Really loving it! Sensational sound. I'm having a slightly annoying issue though... Whenever I put the Mu-so in 'deep sleep' by holding the standby button, I can't get it to 'wake up' again the next morning. I've tried...
Hi Have Uniti2 and Spotify app on ipad Air2. I select Spotify on the Uniti and play a track, but the Uniti simply says 'no track playing' even when Spotify is playing a track. Silly question, but is the problem that I should be...
Hello, I am new here and a Windows Tablet and Phone user. I'm have a Naim Unity 2 on order and am wondering if I should get an iPAD mini or an Android Tablet to control the device? Anyone have experience with both and can give a...

Seeking advice on how to get N-Stream running fast again. The interface is slow and choppy. The is is 4-5 second delay when tapping albums/tracks. It's getting annoying. I have cleaned the image cache which helped a bit. I am...
Hi I've just updated my firmware on the NDS to the latest release (did not need it for Spotify, hence waited). The update went fine, but now I find the volume controls no longer work. I've checked the system automation settings and...
Hello, I am new to this whole thing and am looking for the best place to start on a few topics. 1. CD Ripping - In one of my posts, a gentleman said that Naim prefers uncompressed .wav files to say a lossless .flac files. Where do...
Hi all - hopefully someone can help with this one...My UQ has what I think is a "faulty" mains socket. It's fairly loose (which I think is supposed to be normal??) but to the point where the power cuts out if the mains cable moves. Is this...
Hi. I'm trying to set up the digital out on my UQ2 but seem to be having an issue. The connector I'm using is an adaptor sent out by the HIFI shop then a cable from that to the DAC. Digital Output is enabled and I've tried switching between Native and 24bit but it's not working. Anything I'm missing here?
I use both Amarra and Audirvana on my Mac Mini for playback. For some pieces I enjoy one and for some, the other. I have recently started using a USB connection to my amplifier DAC and when I play Audirvana it is now in integer mode. I...
I was going to say that it freezes, but that's not really accurate. I'm using iOS 7 on my iPad Mini. I don't know when the Naim app most recently updated on this however I now notice that the interface seems sluggish compared to what I...

I've heard so much hype about sticking a power supply on the ND5, I decided to give it a go. I took my ND5 to a friends house over the weekend, and connected it to his Naim system, which comprised of Fraim - Powerlines x 3 - XPS2DR -...
As someone who is not an expert, I find the handbook issued with my new Unitilite not very helpful. can I access a fuller manual anywhere?
