Streaming Audio

My NAIM representative in NL told me NAIM would come up with a MAC-tool to update the firmware of my Superuniti. This is supposed to happen in the coming weeks. Can anyone confirm or deny this? I need/want to update my Superuniti and if i...

Hello As the topic says, i have problems and no idea Im using a QNAP TS212 with Twonkey Media Server, which comes with the QNAP Firmaware. It worked so far. Since it doesent work. When i started the n-stream app on my pad twonkey is there but no folder struckture so far. There ist his little grey ball running on the screen and after several seconds (for me hours) the app says no connection to the server. I tried a second solution. Running a Asset Media server on a bearebone pc. N-stream now...

Hello, I am renovating my apartment and would like to know what would be the best possible way to install multiroom music in the whole apartment? I have read that Naim will introduce that feature in all of their streamers/servers with their...

I have just purchased a ND5 XS, and downloaded the n-Stream app (3.2) to my iPad. It states that there is a volume control on the app to control the ND5 XS.  I don't see it? Do I need to go back to Specsavers?  The picture show's it at the...

I went through several options before settling on my current streaming set up: a Sonore Rendu "renderer" via NDAC into my NaitXS. The Rendu is an ethernet streamer to SPIDF, without a DAC. The Rendu is a great UPNP streamer and I can heartily...

I am pulling my hair out (What's left of it! ) with the Twonky UpnP server, that is built into my Qnap NAS. I have just bought the ND5 XS and am running it with my Supernait, I'm quite happy with the sound. Originally, I had the UnitiServe SSD, and used that as the UPnp server. Yes, I know, why did I get rid? Perhaps I shouldn't have, if I'd known the problems with Twonky...Missing metadata, wrong metadata, track listing all over the place and missing albums! I have read so many threads...

Good afternoon everyone, In a recent post, Michel Werner asks a very good question IMO: The future lies in streaming high resolution music  through the Internet not in ripping CDs. There are a few provider. In France, we have Quobuz...

Hi, I do not know if I may be starting a thread that might be against the rules of the forum but I feel being robbed. I pay for my CDs. All of them. I don't steal music. Ever. I think musicians must be rewarded for their creativity....

For about 2 weeks I have had a digital coax Chord Sarum TA cable. It sounds fantastic.To connect the cable I needed a small converter plug as I understand it a bnc to  RCA connector, since the Sarum Ta is  using RCA connectors. In a blog...

Recently I bought CAT6 Ethernet cables for my UnitiServe, Nas and switch. Do these cables normally require a break in period? 

Hi, has anyone else experienced having their HDX (which was working fine for over 6 months) suddenly start shutting down due to overheating?  I had left mine on all the time (as with my other gear).  Now I have to shut it down after each...

Hi guys, I've had several problems over the past 3,5 weeks when controlling my new ND5xs through n-stream.First I missed a lot of cover-art. That seems so have been solved now! :)  (partly without knowing how/why though) My main...

I've had my UnitiQute for about a month now, and am very pleased with the iRadio and upnp functionality. Using the USB connection on the other hand is a big problem.  It works fine with my iPhone, but doesn't seem to like USB drives. Out of 5 USB...

C'mon naim I (and Im sure many others) are STILL awaiting release of NServe and Nstream apps for Android.  Its the only thing holding me back from Naim streaming.

Software Version 1.7 for Hard disk player/servers in June 2013 or 2014?....

Hi everyone,I'm a 30 year Naim user who is now pretty frustrated and unsure of how to convert to digital.  My longtime Naim dealer closed down, a pretty bad split, after 20 years he started defrauding customers including me.  I mention this...

I'm looking for a system for my office. Here's what I need -> Dac - preferably async usb, headphone amp, amp and really should be a one box solution. Seems I really want all the features of the Supernait - 1 but in a shoebox...

My superuniti linked to Buffalo NAS works fine most of the time. However if I put together a playlist on my PC using JRiver and then export it to the NAS, SU reads it and plays it fine until I (rarely) switch off the SU and the NAS (away on holiday)...

I'm trying to sort out the WAV files that are stored on my Qnap NAS, so that I can see all the metadata on my ND5 XS, running the iPad app. I carried out a test, and converted one album from WAV to FLAC using XLD. The FLAC version plays back just...

Hello, I am still getting acquainted with the functionalities of my two weeks old NDS. It plays wonderfully and will be soon paired with Proac K6 (I look forward to it!). I have set it up so that n-Stream can control the preamp (282/HC) and the...

Given the scant information available at the moment, can anyone see the justification for buying the NDX over the ND5 XS. This new unit looks more like an NDX in a party dress than an amplifier less Qute given the specs. With the PSU upgrade options...

I've been using my NAS as HDX back-up only to date but I'm getting near capacity on the HDX. Can I create a new 'Share' then copy all my back up files over to it on the same NAS - and then access that from the HDX to stream? Or do I need a...

Just read a lot about Aurender W20, QAT MS5 (new MS6) music server.Those music server have enough internal capacity, ipad control, digital out, no ripping/cd.Especially Aurender is build like a 30.000 buck amp (coool)....the digital section is first...

I want to use my MacBookPro for Internet Radio into my Nait5i. Main reason is the sound quality of TuneIn as server. Since I am not yet interested in storing files on HDs and streaming, I am not taking Naim streamers into consideration (yet). I...

Hello all, I've searched the Naim website to find the exact differences but couldn't discover them, hence my question(s). Is the DAC from the 172xs different from the one in the nd5xs?  Another question.The powersupply from the 172 has...
