Streaming Audio

I have a few questions about Naim desktop Client. I have not yet found a way to tag or rename my Music files With DC. Having tried through mr pc and on my Ipad With n-serve. Is there a way to tag and add cover art With Naim apps\programs or do I have...

Interesting article from Phil. Because Spotifiy pauses and is not stable on my UQ2 I bought the net analyzer. Not familiar with the tool yet but the first scans show that the bonjour service on the Qute goes on and of.   Has someone noticed...

What difference is there in buying a 2012 NDX with latest firmware 4.1 installed to a new one today? Am I missing something? Cheers Sun

Apologies if this has been covered, but I've struggled to find a post on this topic. For downloaded hi-res music to my PC (e.g. via Qobuz, eClassical), I copy it to USB, and play through the nDAC. Great sound. But in FLAC format (which most downloads...

Posting this here, as I'm not sure how many still look at the Home Theatre Forum, and it is at least vaguely streaming related.   I've been sorting out my AV system, and have decided that I am fed up of plugging and unplugging some of my coaxial...

I have a second hand UnitiServe (dealer trade in) that was rebuilt and on the way back to me. Drive failed, power supply replaced etc… Originally, the USA Naim distributor advised this was the best bang for the buck to feed the NDAC save for using a Naim streamer with ability to easily catalog CD’s and I’ve been very satisfied until it started crashing then died. Since I mostly stream outside of spinning LP’s was wondering if I should keep it to augment NDX or sell it using the cash to off...

Hi Guys,   Up to now I've retained my HDX for ripping CD's to my NAS, and as UPnP server to my NDS, but will soon be getting hold of a UPnP enabled NAS.   The plan, therefore is to dispense with the HDX, and acquire suitable software for...

Thought I had to report back. The other day UQ2 was updated to f/w 4.01 by my dealer. It has been nicely playing along all those Naim, Linn and RP 320 kbps stations without a hitch, no wildly fluctuating buffer levels, no unwarranted dropouts etc....

Not sure if anyone out there can help, but I've just invested in an apple TV device to stream from my Macbook to my Young DAC, then direct into my 282. Set it up using the TV, then unplugged it and plugged it via toslink into the back of the DAC (Not...

A couple of times now, my NDS has suddenly switched to iRadio. It's happened when the system hasn't been used for a while (a day or so), and the last usage has been streaming from my NAS via upnp.   Any ideas??

While this is of immediate interest only to those of us who listen to classical, Naxos's announcement of a service which goes beyond 16 bit 44k to offer up to 24/96 is a bit of a milestone in streaming terms, as is the clever functionality which will adjust the resolution to ensure that there are no blips in the stream. So, for those of us with fast broadband, we'll get 24/96, bit those with poorer service will automatically have the quality pulled back to ensure continuity. Clever stuff!

I have a strange issue with my antiquate. Twice now it has turned on the iradio on its own. I listen to radio 4 most of the day so it is often left on iradio, but turned off.   A couple of these events have been in the middle of the night.  ...

OK so S/H MacMini on it's way my kit dac decides it's not going to play anything on the coaxial input, so shoot off to Richer Sounds and get a DAC Magic 100, for £100. Not willing to lash out on a Hugo(or whatever) just yet. DM installed OK sounds a little better than old unit, saying that it's taken the USB - Coax converter out of the chain. When we arrive home the MacM has been delivered about 4 days early, so I have that to play with. I'm off to see how to clear previous owners set-up,...

Well, I've started my free month with quboz and early experiences ( i.e. a 2 or 3 hours listening today ) have been very positive. I started off with the attitude that I might as well give it a listen for free and then go back to spotify for investigative listening. Now I'm actually wondering if I might end up with a subscription. I have reservations about paying £20 pcm for a streaming service with a limited library mind you but I really like the sound and I love the idea that you can keep...

I've purchased a cable n very happy with Sonos ZP1/nDac/NAP 300 without the NAC 282/Flatcap (sounds no worse or better and can't get the best out of the gear anyway, having moved to a converted chapel).   Don't want to hear cloth ears/it...

Hi all !   i was wondering how good is SQ of lossless streaming services on Sonos connect played through coaxial digital input of NDX.   thanks in advance to all contributors.    

A more upmarket classic series streamer/DAC/pre-amp a la N172 NX on the way ? Wouldn't bet against it!

I am very new to using quality equipment and purchased a MU-SO a few weeks ago. I find the sound quality to be fantastic and I am getting used to the network dropouts, the poor remote control, BBC internet problems, etc. One question. I did expect to...

This doesn't seem possible with the remote, just the app. I wanted to be able to set up a "Listen to Spotify" activity on the Harmony which would not require me to go through the Naim app to do so, but is it possible?   ND5XS, BTW.  ...

Whilst attempting to update the SuperUniti firmware to 4.1, I've managed to install the USB  driver and it shows up in the system profiler as "CP2101 USB to UART Bridge controller" where there was none earlier, however on the Streamer Updater I...

By popular demand (well, garyi to be specific)    Here's a snap of the engine room that powers my music and av through the house.     A short back-story before I go in to details.   In 2007 my wife and I decided that we needed...

I have the much maligned Virgin Superub 1 and have intermittent dropout much as described in Phil's article on discovery issues. Virgin have offered me their latest Superhub 2ac, (for just P & P) is anyone else using one of these and do they work? I just wondered if its worth a shot before I go down the 'modem mode/new router' path. Thanks Dave

Enter Google Cast.    I don't want to start another 'Why Spotify' thread but I thought I'd share this here. Now a HUGE player on the market will offer it's own take on streaming. I just don't know how manufacturers of serious kit will ever...

I see that there has been a software update for both HDX and the DTC. I have downloaded both and updated the DTC no problem but am getting a bit stuck on the HDX update. The download file is a zip from which i have created an .iso file using...

Before the recent firmware upgrade, I was running my SuperUniti with a fixed IP address. Unbeknown to me, until today, the upgrade resets to factory settings, which means DHCP. So I switched to non-DHCP and it wouldn't work. I checked the list of...
