HI  I've ripped most of my CDs now and I'm looking for some help. Does anyone know the best way of making an MP3 copy of all my AIFF music so that I can use it on my ipod? AFAIK if I use iTunes or similar, I'd just end up getting...

Does streaming music to your NDX/NDS sounds better via NAS over Wifi or plugging in a USB stick with FLAC/WAV files? I currently use a USB stick with FLAC music files stored on it, it sounds great but wonder if NAS over Wifi will sound better?

Need some hint here. To be as open as possible for evolution (to NDS...) i would prefer to go to the 555ps route for my NDX than a XPS or ND5XP, but is this a good idea or the interim (that could stay for a certain time) will not be as good as...

I recently bought a new Mac mini. And since the new iMacs, MacBooks and Mac minis don't have internal optical drives anymore I need an external CD drive for ripping. Can anybody recommend something that's reliable and fast and works with a Mac (XLD to...

Hi guys, Sorry if this has been covered on the forum already. I have the original UnitiQute that can play 24/96 Flac and Wav files. With more and more music available in 24/192 and the ability to use AIFF and ALAC files (more convenient as a Mac...

I just updated my iPhone N-Serve software to the latest v2.5.  It's sufficiently different that I am once again going through the learning curve to figure out how to use it.  A plea to NAIM:  please don't update user...

Yesterday I wrote how I had installed the Linux drivers for the HiFace onto my laptop and then streamed Spotify on my laptop via the HiFace into my nDAC. It occurred to me that rather than take my laptop into the living room I could, perhaps, stream...

HelloI'm new to the n-stream app, having just purchased a NAC-N 172 XS. I was rather expecting the app to show all CD artwork, i.e. the front and back covers and all the inlay card material, as Flac files can store multiple artwork...

One of the things about streaming music is that you collect actual stats about what you listen to most, rather than what you might THINK you listen to. So what is your top 10? Mine is:  1. The Seeds of Love, Tears for Fears;2. Very...

To briefly recap: A few years ago I did some experimentation using a laptop as a client; I got some excellent results using the HiFace into an nDac; To do so a used CMP2, and a VERY stripped down Windows OS, and so had NO networking. Frankly, this was...

Bit of an odd one this... Long story short, I've ripped all my albums to FLAC on to my NAS and would like to convert all file to AIFF so I can have cd quality on my iPod. Is there an easy way to convert all songs in all files in one go or will I...

So now I've heard them for real – active S800s powered by three NAP300s, sourced from an NDS. And on top of that, I met with the one and only Mr Phil Harris ! I ask you, what more could you wish for at a hi-fi show ? … OK, those £145,000 Audiovectors were an interesting, alternative take on how to spend my lottery win when it comes. So a big Thanks to Geoff & Pete from Acoustica and Phil, Mark and (? whoops forgot your name) from Naim. Roger
