Hi all.    I have  much of my music now stored on my iMac which feeds an arcam IRdac (via the usb feed) which then feeds my 282-hicap-150 neat motive 2's. My music files are apple loss less. Music generally sounds great. Just wondered...

It's all in the title really. I have got a shiny new QNAP 469L, given the self-explanatory name MusicServer. It will only contain music files, which will be backed up to my previous NAS (412).   From the little I can glean on the interweb RAID 0...

Hello there, first I want to thank the Naim-Team for being so calm in these difficult days of releasing the new app. I was so angry because stability and function suggested I bought a third world equipment. But all the problems solved - it was the...

Having donated my Arcam FMJ second system in my home office to my Son, (for his new flat) I decided to treat myself to a Superuniti. I had been dithering for a while hoping for a DR upgraded Superuniti but the temptation of the recent Sevenoaks HiFi sale of ex-display Superunitis at under £2,000 was just too tempting. I have set up the SU on a metal multi shelf unit used for general storage, It is connected via QED flat speaker cable to a pair of Dali Lektor 2 bookshelf speakers which...

Up until very recently, I have been a very happy customer of Qobuz, and have used them to purchase a relatively large number of both High-res and Standard-res downloads.   However, around 3 or so weeks ago, I discovered that I could no...

Hallo, I have a question for you… I know that Naim mu-so have a loudness feature, for low level listening, I suppose. There will be a loudness option also for SuperUniti, with the next scheduled software upgrade? thank-you from Italy… (apologize for my english)

My apologies, this question is less technical than most. What is the best way to get my CD collection ripped to a NAS drive at the highest quality using an Apple MAC to stream to a Muso? Thanks

Hi, Can someone tell me how I can check whether I am running the latest software upgrade on my Desktop Client, UnitiServe and ND5XS. I'm a true luddite when it comes to technology, so laymans terms please. many thanks

Interesting editorial in Computer Audiophile, a USA www mag.  It has an uncanny resemblance to some posts I've seen on the forum recently.   " Over the last couple months I've talked to several manufacturers who expressed great frustration...

Anybody know if I can burn the downloaded ISO to a CDRW as opposed to a CDR?

Found myself only using one input on the 282 and the volume fixed ( Sonos to DAC with variable digi output. Tried a few Naim streamers n prefer nDAC processing, can't hear any difference just for streaming purposes (ALAC) between MACs. PCs, Apple TV,...

Dear All, for some intricated reasons I used my Uniti2 with wireless for some time and I get some streaming drop only with flac 24-192.   I am wondering if this is due to bandwidth limit (Naim use only G wireless adapter) or to my signal not...

After spending years thinking about how to move forward (CD vs Hard drive) and after buying a UQ2 as a test last spring for my home office I finally decided on getting a proper network player for my main system (based on a 282) Went to a dealer today and listened to ND5 and NDX, now back home with a new black box and a big smile on my face. When comparing the two (both naked as I don´t plan on getting any DAC or PS soon), I found the NDX to be superior especially on vocals and acoustic...

Sorry for the millions of posts recently just trying to get everything set up right.  I am in the middle of burning my entire CD collection (yawn) to this external HD to play through the UnitiQute.  I Googled it, and apple recommends that...

Not sure if this should go to "streaming audio" or here...   I have been reading the forum rather extensively on a 'digital solution'. I have gotten a NAS (synology DS214play) and have started ripping my CDs. I had not been taking immaculate care...

Mac Yosemite problem: I can't update my  ND5XS because the NAIM updater doesn't list the UART Bridge Controller. When checking the USB port in 'My Mac>Hardware USB the driver doesn't show. A new install of the driver software works OK but even...

As we've just had a firmware update, now is obviously the perfect time to start the wish list.  Hope Pnil and TJ are watching.  Have tried to capture the things others have mentioned.   1. Backup routine to include Downloads folder 2....

hello everyone, I have a dramatic experience with the new naim app. it stops working time after time. It keeps comming up with a screen "rooms" and a startup for multi room. I do not have any multiroom stuff just one nd5xs. With the previous nstream...

For some unknown reason my Music Store suddenly turned into a Music Share ...   My equipment is UnityServe SSD + Synology NAS and I have (had) one Music Store and a few Music Shares. There are almost 900 CDs stored in the Music Store.   I...

I'm beginning to lose sleep.... I know that Spotify will be implemented on the next firmware update. Spotify will only stream at a max of 320kbps which is not really satisfactory when you're putting it through a fairly high-end Naim system. I would have thought that Qobuz would have been a better choice with it's FLAC streaming, although I understand they are having some sort of financial problems which might sadly take them out of the picture. You know, really you should just be able to...

Thank you Naim for releasing this version.  I was given this version early last week after many months of angst with the older version.  I was ready to give up with the US, now I cannot be happier with my US.  The old version kept going...

Dear All, I have not found a solution, if exist.   Often I would choose to listen based on grups of album with a certain sample frequency. Now I put them in folders with sample rate and bit dept information as names.   Is it possible to...

Just added the UQ2 to my setup, to augment the 172XS in the lounge running off a Synology NAS. UQ2 is in my shed/home office and is very nice powering some Neat Iotas - great SQ and take advantage of the limited space. Only problem is the network, as...
