Streaming Audio

I've just set up as NAS for a friend who has an HDX. In my system it worked beautifully with my NDS reading all files through the UPnP setting, so the settings on the Synology must be correct. My friends HDX however is having trouble, the disc station...

Hi Everyone Please could someone give me some advice on voltage optimisation? As background my current configuration is: NDX->nDAC->PS555DR->282->200 Over the last few years my house has suffered from light bulbs not lasting as long as they should. Over the last couple of months I’ve just got totally fed up of having to replace bulbs; six in one day. At this point I called the electrician as there was obviously something wrong. The electrician came out the next day and promptly...

Just pulled from another thread.Asking is NAIM considering an amp/DAC combination? Intergrated amp/DAC, preamp/DAC as I don't really require the streaming element as I am serving the music, all 192/24 files will work with any reasonable DAC, so thats...

Hi all, Just got my 555PS and HiCap back from Naim following their DR upgrades. Dealer has also lent me 552 and 500 for the week. It's a big WOW experience if like me, you've never really listened to that type of system before. My...

Hi all, I just got my SuperUniti but now I found out the iPhone and iPad can't stream the audio from Spotify through this port? So does this mean I can only hear Spotify through my SuperUniti analogue and not digital? :(

I am using my NDX with a Supernait + Hicap2 and MBL 126.I am very satisfied but as my birthday is coming soon I want to make an upgrade for my system.I have read a lot and I am considering two choice: a PS (XPS2) or the ndac.As I can't make a test I...

I have used US-SSD for more than 2 years and it was the first time it was beeping while playing music from NAS yesterday. It was halt and beeping continuously. After reboot, it worked fine. Pls advise any similar experience from other user and...

Hi I'm using my mac mini connected via optical to my Supernait to play music. I would like to use my iPad to control the mini remotely but I'm not sure the best way to do this. I can use Screen Sharing on my laptop but I want to use the...

I was reading elsewhere that at the Bristol Show, Naim demonstrated that a rip via the UnitiServe sounded different to rips from XLD on a Mac.  Does anyone have any details? Eloise

OK folk the M2 HiTech is the one I know of, but what else is out there that could also be consider HQ? Input from those who have experience appreciated.  ThanksGeoff

This is a very basic question so don't laugh! I find that the toslink cable going into the back of my Supernait doesn't make a very tight connection. In fact it wobbles all over the place if I finger it. It sounds all right. Is this a normal...

Hello,With a view to shortly moving over to a streaming based system I've already put all my CD's onto a hard drive in FLAC format using dbpowerampI have some 24 bit stereo mixes on DVDA's and was wondering if it's possible to transfer these to...

I am considering to upgrade/replace my Squeezebox Touch / Musical Fidelity MDAC combination either by a Naim DAC or by a ND5XS. I will decide after a home demo. Besides sound quality I will also consider ease of use. Squeezebox in combination with...

Unitiserve has both Toslink and Coax SPDIF outputs. I am not using a streamer but direct playback to an Amp via these SPDIF outputs (currently favouring the Coax with 75 ohm BNC) 192/24 playback hasn't been working, all 96/24 and under is...

On an earlier post I explained that I had lost my n-stream app capabilities due to having an older iPod touch. As a result I have moved over to using the synology DS Audio app via my Google Nexus 7 and controlling volume via naim remote.  All...

Just got my new US and delighted. However, for certain CD rips the noise (hum) is quite pronounced, with the unit vibrating. The rips seem fine and, I suppose, it may be just a consequence that some CDs are less balanced than others. Perhaps the CD is...

I have finally downloaded DVDaudio Extractor and successfully ripped The Raven That Refused to Sing (Steve Wilson) at 24/96, but ELP's debut wasn't recognised in 2 channel form. Can anyone recommend alternative (free?)software and safe ...

In n-stream settings there is the option to clear UPnP cache and clear image cache. Can anyone tell me what this does and when should I use these settings? Thanks

Can I connect iPad through CCK with the front USB on SuperUniti? Or need I use a separate DAC in-between first?

Does anyone have experience, good, bad or indifferent, of using NaimNet in a Control 4 environment?  I have had the structured cabling installed for a NaimNet system which was originally planned a couple of years ago.  I had intended to...

Is anyone using 802.11ac? My understanding is that you need an ethernet bridge as Naim streaming products don't recognise 802.11ac. Can you still use n-Stream? Just moved and gonna be difficult to have wired ethernet. New BT Homehub 3 has been...

I am not trying to establish a counter-Naim fan club.  But this seems like an interesting product and worth a try at the price.   I ordered one to try today.  I am not ready to revamp my CDS2+ 555PS setup to go toward streaming and this...

I imagine this has been asked before but search is apparently no longer working... I'm looking to upgrade my source and Naim now has a plethora of digital options that weren't available the last time I was here! I'm not sure what the best route...
