Going through my tracks and some are repeated up to 10 times because of original albums and compilations.   is there any software that allows you to have one copy but so the integrity of albums remains, a bit like stubbing in file de duplication...

Hello   I have attempted to set up my new Synology 214play but this has not gone to plan.  After installing Audio Station, Java Manager and MinimServer I enabled user home service and copied some music to the NAS from my MAC (by using...

What are your thoughts and/or experience with stacking two 555PS together on one Fraim medium level?   These two PS's drive an NDS.  With two x 5 level Fraims, the NAP500PS sits on a medium shelf all by itself with loadsa fresh air...

I have a question about the NDX display functions.   My NDX is connected to my NAS running TWONKY.   If I select the song I want to listen directly from the NDX (using the buttons on the front panel) I can see the titles and if the...

I have been struggling to get the right genre tags for my ripped and downloaded music.  This is all really about convenience - there is no right answer.   However, I find myself randomly tagging some albums "Alternative" (or Indie) vs....

I posted this query (now updated) on another thread ("iPad mini vs iPod Touch for n-stream") but as my query relates to another (albeit similar) matter I thought a new thread was in order. If anyone can link me to another thread which answers...

Hi After much faffing about I have finally decided to rip all my 800 CD's to uncompressed Flac. I would much prefer to use WAV as I think it sounds marginally preferable, but this appears to be the same format with the all important tags added. I...

Does anyone know when purchasing a new NDX, does it come with the reference manual? 

Has anyone else had this problem? I put on a stick to play whilst doing some jobs around the house and I've noticed replay slowing down before returning to speed. The USB stick has been played several times before without this happening.

Does anyone have a good workflow for exporting a cd collection ripped using Unitiserve to ALAC? I tried the method of using iTunes to import all 30k songs then Jaikoz to retag everything but it didn't work too well and was a real faff with no end in...

Quick question: Can I use my UnitiQute2 and NAS in an environment without a internet connection?  

Hi to all, I've been using a Netgear ReadyNas Duo to stream my music but I've had a lot of hassle and gradually got fed up with constant glitches etc so I've decided to go back to a PC based system. Im thinking of buying a new desktop with either Win7 or Win8 but I'm not sure really but the PC will only be used for basic office stuff and mainly music. There are a couple of Dell Desktops going cheap (£134:00) on Amazon which look good but maybe I could utilise my old PC which is Windows XP...

Hi all   I have a synology DS212 and uniti2 and used an iPad running n-stream to control the system. Works really well and sounds great.   Over time my wife and I have built up our own fav playlists - I would like to move(copy really) the...

Hi, I just bought a SuperNait 2 to see if I want to downsize from a Bryston system to a more compact Naim system.  If I elect to keep the SuperNait 2, it will replace three pieces of Bryston gear and some expensive Cardas speaker and interconnect...

Hi,   I'm planning to purchase Unitiqute 2 to connect to my Nait5i-2 as a streamer. Would appreciate some advice please if this makes sense? Is there anyway to turn off the amp on the UC2? Tq

Ok, so yet another stupid question.    I have a Qute2 and an iMac. I store my music collection on the iMac in iTunes and then stream it to my Qute2 using nStream.   My question is, how do apps like Pure Sound and Sonic Ammarra work? By...

For all the accessibility and pleasure that streaming using N-Serve on the iPad brings - I end up not as engaged in the music as I used to be when all I was looking at was the album cover   now it's news/email/planning my next...
