Using n-Stream 3.2, I find that the Album Details feature is mostly worthless for classical music. It's wrong about -- oh say -- 100% of the time. more or less.   Right now I am streaming the Decca recording of Aeolian Quartet doing...

I would very much like to be able to search for composers using their surnames.  Currently searching requires knowledge of their christian names, which I don't always know.  Is there any way of editing 'composers' using the nServe app...

There is often reference to jitter and having as low a jitter as possible. If there is a MacBookPro which appears to be model 8.2 (late 2011) and it were relegated to music server duties, what preparations are best done to suit this purpose? Is there any specific "jitter treatment" if it were required, and how can I find out about its jitter level? Also there is mention on this forum about the BitPerfect from the Apple App store, it shows up as being an audiophile grade music player costing...

Does anyone know why Naim has not included access to Pandora, MOG, and Spotify with its Internet connected players such as the Uniti? Other companies like Sonos, Logitech, and Linn have provided this feature for years, so why can’t Naim? I understand that Naim is focused on sound quality, but integrating this feature into Naim products would, I think, be well received by many customers. For some, it would open a whole new world of music, while others could get rid of an extra box or two...

I use nDAC for music and movies. One input is linked to digital streamer via DC1 and the other one is linked to DVD player via toslink. I switch between the inputs on the fly with NARCOM -- very easy. Will it be the same easy with NDS?
