Streaming Audio

Hi all. I'm doing my best to ditch using my PC as it's a pain to have to fire it up just to use DBpoweramp. I'm looking for a music converter for MAC with the following features: 1. Conversion to Uncompressed FLAC (like Poweramp)2. The option to...

I've just got a Superuniti.  I have it wired with Ethernet cable to the Netgear router, with a Western Digital mybooklive NAS drive wired to the router also.  Nothing else is wired to the router. When I first turn the Uniti on it seems...

I am lucky that my local Naim dealer (Cymbiosis in Leicester) is also a Linn dealer and I had the pleasure of being able to do a head to head comparison of an NDS with one or two 555ps vs a Klimax ds using a 555 pre amp, a 300 power amp and Kudos...

I sit here tonight listening to Linn Classics and my mind wanders back to either 1958 or '59, sitting in my grandparents' house, listening breathlessly to the rantings of a new leader in Cuba named Fidel Castro.  Of course we didn't...

Hi everyone, I'm about to purchase a UQ, and although I was set on getting the 24/192 model, I'm beginning to wonder whether it's worth it after reading this article: http://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/demo/neil-young.html.  Most of my...

I've just bought a iPod classic and have started ripping CDs to the laptop. Can anyone advise on appropriate settings to give good quality sound from the pod, using my Sennheiser phones. I guess lossless is too good and basic MP3 too bad, but here are...

What is Streaming and how does it work?  Thank youRomi

From the folks who make Bliss, which I find very useful:http://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-ebook.html Did a quick read, seems pretty good. He provides one solution all the way through for ripping, tagging, storing and backup.

Hi, why can FLAC be streamed up to 24-bit/192kHz but Apple Lossless to 24-bit/96kHz? Is this a limitation of the Codec or the hardware? My music collection is ripped from from CD to ALAC but I am starting to build a collection of Studio Masters...

What are your experiences with the three listed services?  I'm thinking about getting a Sonos Connect to take advantage of internet radio and these streaming services.  I'm trying to understand what, if any, differences there are between...

I know this has been discussed ad nauseum but this is a final plea because I'm totally frustrated.Via USB or NAS I cannot get album artwork with FLAC files on the nStream with the Uniti.I've used Kid3 to embed artwork, put images marked cover.jpg,...

Hi all, I have been the owner of SuperUniti for a month now. Just upgraded the firm ware toSU: 3.16.00 western europe+N-stream 3.1.Speaker is Proac D18 with Naca5.Control with Ipad 2+N-stream and Ipeng to compare My previous system to...

Chaps, I'm a complete virgin on this stuff so please go easy!!! I love the replay from both my TT and CDP and sonically have no real wish to change anything but storage is becoming a problem. The vinyl I can deal with but in sorting the CDs...

Hello I am about to take the plunge on a UnitiQute after much deliberation. Thinking about a pair of standmount speakers to match.  I love small(ish) standmounts for their discrete profile but also for imaging precision and speed.  I have my...

I can connect to the server hard drive and play My ripped cd's. But it Will not rip, and i can not use it as à cdplayer anymore (from one day to another). I put in à cd and it Will spin up as normal, but then nothing, and i can not eject the cd by puting My finger infront of the logo,,,i have to use the little tiny hole for ejecting. Please does someone recognize this fenomen??? magnus

I am just considering to buy a single bay NAS unit to playbackmostly Hires flac files on my NDX. What models should be considered for optimum sound ? Any posts welcomed. 

Well, discussion, rather... The only way to connect a Naim Dac to a Qute is by the RCA outputs of the dac to the analogue inputs of the Qute, correct? We've had a bit of discussion over here and need someone to help win my wager... Thanks! Chas

Having put downloads in to the "correct" folder on my UnitiServe I would like to get the cover art into place. I have been told by Support that I need a Tag Editor so does anyone have a suggestion for one that will be easy to use on my iMac?

Howdy. Just wanted to ask if anyone else has experienced a "Fault 36" error message on their ND5 XS and if so does anyone know what it is? Although the initial IT solution of switching it off, unplugging the mains and then switching back on, bore...

Please provide the link to download. Thank you

Hi Guys,This is the first time I take the courage to venture into audio streaming world since Naim DAC has joined the family couple of months back. The objective is to play Hi Res files while retaining CD5XS for CD playback. My intention is to get...

Hi, I know there are quite a few posts on the new NDS. I just wanted to add my 2pence. I got a call from my dealer on Wednesday..."it's here". Cool I'll pop round later, no worries, have it for the weekend..YIPPEE! How old am I, too old and should...

Hello all, May I ask normally how loud you would go on SuperUniti?My system is SU+Naca5+Proac D18, room size is 4x5.5m with many furniture. D18 is about 3 months, SU is near 2 monthsI normally listen to level around 30-35. Weekend I can jump to...

Hello, My first post here so please be gentle. I very recently auditioned an ND5 XS and Nait XS pairing with a pair of B&W CM8 Speakers. I think they were using the higher end Naim connection cables. Was really impressed and then the XP5 XS was added and the gains were subtle but well worth it. My question is regarding the NAS's used when partnering these type of systems. is a uPNP type multi disk unit perfectly adequate or over kill? I've seen on the forums...

As per title...trying to decide what to do about a server for an NDS. One of the factors is how much cash I effectively have tied up in the HDX. Mods please note, I have no separate contact details on here, this is NOT a for sale on the sly!! I...
