Streaming Audio

do all UpnP servers sound the same?I don't want to kick the "Golden Ears/Imaginations" nest and have lots of unsubstantiable opinions, please. What I would like to know is whether there is any measurable evidence that say, the speed at which one UpnP...

This afternoon, I have tried several times to play music from my HDX. Whenever I select a track, either using N-Serve on my iPhone or iPad, or from the front panel of the HDX, it simply gives me the message "Please Wait", then reverts to the home...

Hi this is my first post as a result of my frustration at not being able to get my UniLite to play album tracks from my WD MyBookLiveDuo in numerical order. Everything works well and the sound quality is brilliant, but classical music tracks played in alphabetical order is nonsense. WD say the problem is the player reads the album tracks in alphabetical order. I have been told that the UniLite will read either numeric or alphabetical order depending on what the server presents. So the issue...

Does anyone know how to make nds see the musik files on a Apple AirPort Time Capsule. The AirPort time Capsule is not listed in the UPnP directory, but works as the the router as well! Thanks and happy New Year

Is there any benefit to routing my ethernet through a switch to my ND5XS rather than the router ( homehub3)

Bought and downloaded Giulini's Marriage of Figaro From Qobuz. All tracks are there and appear correctly labelled. When streamed to an NDS from an NS01 the tracks are all there but in the wrong order. They are in the right order when streamed to a...

Hi, folks I'm currently streaming flac music to my uniti 2, this is from a unit that has a Sabre -  ES9018 32Bit DAC Chip. My question is, is this overkill, would my sound, sound as good coming from a cheap unit as my expensive...

Hi, I've got a UnitiServe which has ripped over 500 of my CDs and has got the correct album information and artwork for each one. When I use my iPad with the n-Stream app ( all latest versions ) I connect to the NDX and select IPnP input...

My new UQ2, which I love, is unfortunately regularly dropping the connection on Internet Radio, especially Radio Paradise, but also Naim Radio. I have a 100MB virgin media connection, it is cat 6 wired to a Netgear gigabit hub, which then goes to an...

I'd like to ask a couple of questions about UQute2. When I change stations in iRadio the device cannot grab 320k streaming hosts (Naim, R Paradise, Linn). When I stop connecting and perform a power cycle, it holds on (OK at a 90% success rate) to...

Hi all - I have a unitiqute where the mains socket on the rear of the unit has come loose.  To the point that the cable will drag it down and short out the power.  Does anyone know if there is a quick fix for this??  Or if there is a...

Borrowed an ND5XS from my dealer yesterday and will return it tomorrow (Monday). I must say that I am amazed.. First of all, my knowledge about streaming and computer audio in general are poor to say the least. Anyway, within 5 minutes the streamer...

Hi Everyone I have a question which I hope someone can answer. It isn't a show stopper, it doesn't even have an effect on the function of the Qute it's just, strange. When I connect to the Qute using my browser...

I just started to appreciate the Multiroom functionality when I got my new UQ2 (previously I already had a ND5XS). However, I was disappointed to understand it only supports input via "its UPnP, USB/iPod or iRadio inputs". Why not support the Digital...

Hi Anybody that knows the output impedance of the driver stage or possibly has any further details (topology or schematics) ? I intend to pick up the signal at the power amp side with an audio line receiver (...

Just shut down my Unitiserve (HARD) by touching the Naim logo for a while. After it was completely down I unplugged the power cord and plugged it in a different socket (wanted to try something). I restarted it by switching the switch on the back of...

Am I missing something here? How do I easily play these hi def files? After downloading from HDTracks couldn't work out how to play them til I discovered XLD, but it's not exactly user friendly and I haven't worked out how to queue tracks. Have I...

I have recently taken delivery of an NDS and I am overwhelmed by the sound quality, which is a massive step up from the NDX/DAC/555, but there are a couple of surprises. First is the USB input which is actually a USB/iPod input. That's what it's...

Merry Christmas to you all, since Christmas eve on I am trying to setup my new UnitiLite together with N-Stream and a Synology DS114. I spent hours on this forum and several others but I still have the following questions: I am coming from a full Apple environment with iTunes as my music library. What is the best way to migrate the library from my Mac to the NAS? Just copy the folders or better run the complete library on the NAS? I tried the Synology Media Server and the MinimServer as the...
