Folks, I now have Iradio working wirelessly with my Superuniti, using the Naim remote. I can successfully play all of the stations listed undder "Naim's Favorites". I have even been able to add two stations to my "added stations" list. The URL I plug in is absolutely correct--copied and pasted while the stations are playing on my laptop. I can use the Naim remote to scroll down to "Added Stations", find my station, and hit the "OK" button. The display says "Connecting", then shortly...

I keep thinking if US can replace my PC/Asset to do a rip-job and uPnP job. Is there any concise summary on US vs PC/Asset in terms of functionality? Can I browse US/uPnP with native Folder view? Can I instruct US to copy rips to a...

I want to upgrade my current £20 coaxial interconnect that currently sits between my UnitiServe and the Supernait. The first obvious option would be the DC1. The UnitiServe and the Supernait are excellent units, which is why I bought them. However, something tells me that the DC1 is more justified to compliment Naim high end units. Has anyone got any thoughts on that? I do of course, appreciate the fact, that the only way to decide, is by listening to the DC1. I have recently had demo of...
