Streaming Audio

Purchased the 192K AIFF Miles Davis Kind of Blue album from HDTracks.  My NDS can only play 30 seconds before the buffer fails.  Is this due to the speed of my NAS drives (Western Digital Red) or a bottleneck in my network? Using UnitiServe...

hi all, i am moving house next week and BT have decided they cannot connect us up until Feb 24th, as its also a new build.The problem is that all my music and movies is on my NAS, how can i still stream?i have some spare routers from sky, is it...

Odd one this. My NAS is mountable, all folders intact, all music plays back, everything tickety boo except I can't mount my two music stores in music store manager via OSX web browser and also I can't rip any CDs as the music store isn't presenting...

Hi All, 320kbps radios seem (to me) far and few (apart from R-Paradise and Naim-R,  BBC - which does advertise it but here in Italy I only get 56k ). Is there any other true 320K stations around that you kindly know of? Thankssalvo 

So now I have a fair bit of music on my NAS and have  made a few playlists and the volume is all over the place with 1990 CDs and 2011 CDs at such different volumes as to make the playlist unworkable. is there an inbuilt way in UniQute like...

I bought one of these a week ago (I am new to Naim, having used Arcam for years) and found that it produced noticeable hiss (clearly audible from my listening position) through my speakers, even if the volume was down or muted and irrespective of...

I have recently had my CDS3 repaired but am now considering the switch away from silver disks. My replacement for the CDS would be the NDS. If I understand correctly, this would slot right into my system and be powered by my existing 555PS. As the NDS...

I have a lot of multi-disc sets (Grateful Dead), and there is a way to tag such so that the title of each cd is exactly the same, but they are distinguished by a "Disc" number tag.  My metadata editors all seem to support this, but my uServe...

Dear all, I am observing the much commented on problem with nstream where it loses the server. Naim unitilite DCHP (long lease) wired to BT home hub 5 QNAP TS420+twonky DCHP (long lease) wired to BT home hub 5 nstream 3.6.7479 streamer:3.20.000,...

Does any of NAIM streaming audio players support PSD? My ND5SX doesn't seem to, but maybe there's some trick to it...? I mean Radio Paradise PSD. :)

I purchased one and it's still quite new, so it needs to run in for a few weeks. But I found myself listening to FLAC files from start to finish, enjoying it (not wanting to forward it to the next one) and when it stopped, enjoyed the next one....

I just did this test. The SBT output through SPDIF sounds almost ok going through 202/HCDR. Comfortably a league above the analog output of the Squeezebox touch (and this should not be a surprise) but when I plugged the DAC V1 into the NAP 200...

Anyone know the best way for me to create a low res copy of my lossless iTunes library? I want to do this to feed my iPod.  This will allow me to turn on the volume equalisation option which doesn't work on lossless files.

Hello,I want to ask if now NaimNet products were outdated or unnecessary. Finally, devices such as Naim Uniti can multiroom (party mode).What are the reasons for NaimNet?best regards Mustafa Ali

If I take a file straight from the NAS to the UQ2 wirelessly I can see there is no interference by any other sound source.  If I take the same file from the computer through Foobar with WASAPI to the UQ2 is that also a "clean" file or does the...

If this is an idiot question, please forgive me I'm using Asset to point to my files on my WD NAS and on an external HD plugged into a Netbook.  It works well through my UQ2 But, when I move a file across, it shows almost immediately in...

Latest version - even more stable and feels quicker on my test server. Now includes more support for standard playlists and extended tagging. Selecting transcoding options is also more reliable. Many of the control point issues with nStream appear to...

Just spent two  hours fitting cat 6 to replace the powerlines I wss using. Was it worth the effort? 

HiI have just signed up for Qobuz streaming (on the 1 month free trial, but so far looks good). I am wondering if there is a way to stream to my Naim Qute. I am using andriod and have downloaded the Qobuz app to my tablet, but it only seems to allow...

Hi - I have connected my iPad to the front usb of my HDX via an apple cable but the HDX is not 'seeing' the iPad or playing any music through the system. All I hear is the iPad speaker. Trying Qobuz & Spotify. Where am I going wrong? Thanks Graeme

Hi all, LAst December I started a thread around Spotify, asking why Naim is not supporting this. I was told by many that is because Naim is going for Qobuz. Well, seems like Naim is not supporting this either? If one needs to use other devices to...

Hi. Using the N-Stream app on iPad to control music from Synology NAS to my UQ2.  Some times I'd like to listen to my whole music collection on shuffle play and hoped it would randomly pick tracks from the entire library but it seems to...

The pricing of high definition tracks bothers me somewhat. I feel I am being conned similarly to when CDs first came out that they were dearer than the equivalent of vinyl or cassette. Surely the most costly part of an album is the actually...

I want to be able to open up nStream and tell it to play tracks at random from my Media PC running Asset. I can't figure how to do it. Creating a playlist in nStream involves doing it one song at a time and I seem to remember...

Hi Naim Support, Any improvement planned for network streamer on future firmware upgrade ? n-Stream ??? Sound Quality ??? Streamer Function ??? Cheers,marcobb
