Streaming Audio

Hi all, all i see is a program (digital output enhancer) which allow the SBT to play 24 bits via the USB. my problem is that my external DAC (TeddyDac) only supports 24bits via its coaxial input(it can only play 16 bits via USB) . if...

I'm driving my SU from a NAS, wired via an Apple Extreme router, and that's all working just fine. But I'm finding, as I download more stuff, that the organisation of it is becoming messy. The bulk of the collection is classical, and I find music may...

I have an NDX and 252 pre-amp setup and this issue has been bugging me for a long time. The volume control in the n-Stream app is appalling. Quite simply, give us a slider control please. I think it's in the app software but only for use with a...

I have recently downloaded the Bubble UPnP app to my Google Nexus to allow streaming of my music from a Synology 212J NAS. However it is failing to consistently find my ND5XS streamer as a rendering device, which I am using in a wired configuration. It finds other renders around the house like laptops and Xbox no problem. I am trying to compare it to the Synology DS Audio app as a replacement for n-stream (which I deleted - see earlier post for reasons why) and DS Audio finds the ND5XS no...

Finally taken the plunge. Decided on an SSD Unitiserve to build around. Current set-up quite old but after taking a while to rip all the CDs I am hoping to continue building towards NDS/Unitiserve system or maybe reference DAC if NAIM release...

If I look at the HDX website I can find version 1.6 b desktop version. Is this the latest version? If not were can I find the latest one? My dealer said there should be an 2.011 version? Anyone knows the answer? Dwamish

Sometimes when you download a hires audio file and its cover-art in a music share, the cover art does not show in the IPAD Naim app, even after using the desk top client to load it. How do you fix this?

My n-stream app has just started playing up, so decided to what I have done before ie delete it and re-install from app store. However my controller is old version iPod touch and I am being told that it requires IOS 4.3. I'm on 4.2.1 and can't upgrade...

I have a problem and don't know if its been addressed before here on the forum. My New Uniti serve is connected to my network via Ethernet cable. The US is about 3 weeks old. I've had to shut down the unit 3 or 4 times to get the US to eject a CD...

Can anybody please recommend a NAS device for back up purposes. Does it have to be a nas device or can it be a hard drive for back up?. Apologies if this has been asked previously.thanks

I know folks here swear by the Mac Mini. However, I'm in my study when I'm working and have a PC on anyway. Any recommendation on a sound card that does bitperfect, low jitter Optical Out? I'm fairly technical, but won't write my own...

I've recently been to the Ripcaster showroom  and found them so very helpful - informed and a great place to do busniess with. Often we shop these days with website based companies and feel its not quite the full experience.  and we sit...

I've only recently bought my HDX and so far i've been unable to listen to any BBC stations. I can stream BBC R3 & R4 Hidef test stations listed in Naim Choice no problem but if i try and select any BBC radio stations 1 through to 6 (all listed as wma 48kbps) it will not stream. The timer stays on 00.00. After a while the message 'Cannot connect to internet radio. This maybe caused by a short term internet problem. Please retry in a few minutes if the station is known to work in...

Hi, now it's happen and my fear in running/hearing music with a device based on software becomes reality. I've powered on my uniti and the device comes up with " Fault 28 Bridgeco Boot Failure " . Not pretty sure what execatly the status of FW is but...

Playing around with the NDX today, I noticed something strange and I could very well be imagining this, but I'm sure somethings amiss.Using the NDX as a streamer, I sense a little digital glare/harshness/distortion.When just using the NDX's Dac...

I'll be adding an NDX to my system (282/HCDR/202/NDAC) in the coming week and am curious about any experiences with the following streaming options: 1) From a central computer (SSD for OS, music storage on HDDs, 32GB RAM) hooked into a home...

Hi - am getting close to downsizing  my system, having shed my CD player, preamp and one power amp.  So, quick question - does anyone on the forum use a SuperUnit with Akurate 242s?   I love the sound of these speakers (I've had them...

Hello all,   I got a 5.1 system composed by an AV2 connected on NAP 150x + NAP v175   I would like to know the best configuration for dematerialized high quality audio while keeping my existing configuration : 1/ buy...

I've recently taken the leap from CD's into streaming and I thought I had a reasonable understanding of how this stuff works, but the other day I was told by someone (who shall remain naimless) that "USB drives sound the best...

Several hundred CD's into my ripping marathon I started getting nervous about backup (I diidn't have one). I was ripping (using a unitiserve SSD) to a brand new 2 TB WD Green in a high spec tower PC, but I thought it may be a...

Hi,I'm new to the Naim community but read a lot of very interesting posts here on streaming audio.I'm interested in replacing my CD player and potentially my amp by a naim streamer.I already had the chance to try the Superuniti at home over a weekend...

Hi all I'm fairly new to the audio scene only having gotten in it just the past year. I seem to have upgraded from my B&W CM1 and Rotel 1520 CD Player / Amp in about 6 months now I am running B&W PM1 with Marantz PM15S2 / SA15S2 SACD player the combo is great. However I'm curious about Naim gear being paired up with the PM1 so I'm debating keeping my sacd player for now and getting the Naim Superuniti for streaming and testing the difference with that unit or get rid of...

I have ripped 428 albums to my Unitiserve and I set it to backup to a WD MYBOOKLIVE 2tb drive. The backup started at 04.00 this morning, as setup. Now, nearly 10 hours later, it has backed up only 71 of the 428. Is this a normal speed for a backup? At...

I can't seem to get dsbridge to work anymore, or rather I can't be my Uniti to play the stream it creates! I can play it off my mac or my laptop (through the web browser) however when I save the ip of the stream to my naim presets it won't play. I can...

Over 2 years ago we added a second internet connection to our network which is used to support domesic and business use, we needed the resilence of a second connection so added a cable connection to our existing ADSL facility. Due to the positioning of the cable connection being nowhere near the Router I added a Homeplug pair of ethernet over mains adaptors, this allowed the cable modem to be connected to a Draytek router that handles both connections with failover etc. I wasn't keen on...
