Streaming Audio

Silly question that may be but I am a total comp audio novice. Some facts: old iMac (2008), old iPod (80G), around 300 albums ripped in Apple Lossless already, bitperfect installed etc.. I consider getting a new iPod classic (160G) before it goes out of production to use it with UQ2-NAP100 combo instead of opting for a NAS solution that I abhor. I do not have time or will to rip all my CD collection. The capacity that will be provided by 160G iPod might be enough for me. I have no intention...

Today there is a new version of QuteControll in the Apple Mac Apstore. For all wo want´s control the Uniti from the MAC.

Hi. As a previous post states I'm looking at upgrading the system but sadly am unable to listen today but in preparation for possible upgrades I've taken the plunge with a nas. I've got a uniti without the 192 upgrade. If I download 192/24 tracks to...

Last Thursday, BBC Radio 3 broadcast an all Strauss concert live, of which I heard the first half.  We decided to listen to the entire concert through iRadio on Saturday afternoon, which was somewhat of a frustrating experience...

My Qute2 is currently at version 3.17.00 and so I believe it is due an update. First, can I go straight to the latest update? Next, I don't know what cable to use to connect to my laptop as the guide calls for an RS232 converter to micro USB. ...

Hi people, Just started to get this error message. Is this an external error or something to be more afraid of 

Just wondering if anyone else has found this and if there's a way around it... Using a Synology 213 with Minimserver transcoding flac to wav, I sometimes select a song or album and "connecting" appears on the NDX's display for a while before...

After receiving excellent advice on ths forum, I purchased a VortexBox to rip my CDs to FLAC and stream to my Unitilite. I am extremely happy with the result, thanks for pointing me in that cost effective direction. I still have a handful of AAC files...

folks, short question... a XPS DR costs 2x a XP5XS...but reading all the posts here , it seems that the XP5XS is really game changer for a NDX (means it gives a big bang for the money).Has one did a/b tests already? Thanks!cheers Ralf 

Does anyone have experience of setting-up a NaimNet system with used / second-hand equipment? I have an HDX, bought new from my local Naim dealer, which I would like to make the basis of a three- or four-room NaimNet system.  My dealer gave...

Hello, I have just picked up by new MacBook Pro and want to download a UnUP media server so I can stream to my Qute. I would be interested in hearing views on best options.  I have read good stuff about Playback but don't really...

My ipad n-stream application is on the same BT wireless network as my UnitiQute and NDX. Neither device is recognised and the n-stream app fails to connect. Both devices have the latest naim software upgrades installed.

Hi, am just in the process of re-ripping my cds (dB Poweramp) and have put the artists name in front of the album title in order to group artists albums together in NStream. I've noticed that the track list in QNap 212 has gone to alphabetical rather...

Hi, I've just attempted to upgrade my HDX from 1.6d to 1.7a First phase of upgrading to 1.6g went fine. Repeated process for upgrade from 1.6g to 1.7a and after a few minutes the screen displays, "System Programming. Firmware update...

Hi all, Naim's product page for the Superuniti lists compatible power supplies as 115V, 230V; 50 or 60Hz. But is a Superuniti running on 110V mains power able to be run from a 230V power supply without any internal...

Hello, with me moving into a new house very soon, my next step will be to implement a streaming based system. Basically I have two choices:UQ or ND5XS / NDAC / 555NDS / 555I already have an NDAC so the first option would be easier and initally cheaper...

Have you planned an Android app in the near future? Only one iPhone app, which is not so good when we use Android ;-)

Hi,after struggling for a good while withe my LaCie WirelessSpace NAS I found out that in Finder some of the files show the symbol of a note whereas others show the symbol of the VLC app. And only the ones with the note sign show up on my UnitiQute...

Is it just me, or does the screen on this NDX look bigger than it should? 

Would it make sense to connect a NDX to a DAC V1 for better soundquality, or is the dac section of the NDX the better one?

Does anyone know if there is a way to create a database (i.e. Excel), to list all the CD'S one has on the HDX & or the NAS, either from individual Stores, or Network Shares? It doesn't seem like you can does this in Naim Software package, but maybe someone makes a third party applet. Sort of surprised I haven't seen this topic before. Yes you can search pretty well on the HDX , and it is very easy, and one of the best GUI's around, but I don't see a way to export the basic...

Hi all,Is it possible to get any difference in sound quality between firmware versions?  I ask becasue last night i updated my naimuniti from version 3.0 to the latest and greatest firmware, and it seems like the uniti is performing better in the...

I am currently setting-up a SBT and have installed the EDO applet to use the USB as an output to the DAC-V1 USB. I have run the the BitPerfect tests but only the 24 bit files pass. The 16 bit files all report: "Audio is not BitPerfect""No test...

Hi all, i've been playing around with a couple of IOS apps as alternatives to n-stream in order to control my Uniti.  I've tried both media:connect, linns kinksy and DS Auidio.  While i can use all of these apps to select tracks and...
