Streaming Audio

I know I have asked this before, but cannot find the answer.  First, is there a sound difference between StreamNet and UPnPTM?  Second, what are all the devices that work on StreamNet. NS01-03, both HDX's, both Uniti serves, Naimnet...

Hi,     I've used slim devices transporter for a few years as streaming source.   I like the functionality and it sounds great through Naim dac but I would still like to revert to a naim streamer if poss.     I have...

Am I right in thinking that the ipad controls the NDX/NDS via the network... ie talks to the router which then relays the command to the streamer? If so then the streamer could potentially sit anywhere in the house?

Hi Mates, I have got my NDX a few days ago and had little time to try it out.So far I  connected an external HDD to it to play some Hires musicvia its USB input. Now I would like to 'create' a local network to use NDX as a real...

Just installed new ND5XS and its working fine via the supplied remote.  However I have downloaded the n-stream app for my iPod Touch but it is failing to connect to the player.  After initial set up it searches for devices but states 'No...

Firstly, I apologise to all, as I have asked a similar question before... My new Unitiserve SSD should arrive any day now, but before it's arrival, I thought I'd purchase my NAS drive to make sure that it is all set up and ready. Because I had...

 I thought all you die-hard Naim enthusiasts might be interested, or amused, to read about the exploits of a first time Naim customer. By way of background I needed to replace a 10 year old Cyrus 2/PSX/FM tuner setup with something new that...

Hi there, first post ! ...be kind..a question re airport express,am I correct in thinking that this is just a case of connecting to the mains and then connecting my unity via RCA,toss link or even Ethernet cable ? Will I then be able to stream from my...

I've been running a SB Touch for three months with the Logitech server on my PC. I'm now thinking of buying a NAS, probably a basic DLink model, but unsure on one point. Will I have to load the server software onto the NAS or will it already contain...

Just picked up a Unitiserve SSD today and am busy feeding the hungry little blighter CDs.  When a certain album isn't found in the AMG database, the Unitserve appears to look in a second database called FreeDB. I have a couple...

Hello, New to Naim and HiFi generally, but managed to set up a UnitiQute and QNAP NAS running Twonky 6.0.38. Twonky pulls music from two separate iTunes libraries and most of the time seems to work OK. Although I've scoured these forums numerous times...

Sounds like the CD drive does not clamp down properly. Seen / heard this on PCs so figure the optical drive just failed. Is there any realign / reset ninjitsu in the desktop client or the on UnitiServe interface to exercise the drive? A...

This article seems to go into depth to prove that hires downloads are silly: http://people.xiph.org/%7Exiph...demo/neil-young.html   It reminds me of other articles proving that vinyl is so much better than digital media - just the...

Hi ChumsJust bought King Crimson "Discipline" re-re-issue which has 96KHz/ 24 bit stereo files on a DVD. Is there any way to rip these files to my NAS for streaming?I normally rip CDs with dBPoweramp.

Hi, When I bought my ND5 XS I used Wifi to stream from my Netgear router. I had a few problems then (SW release 3.9). Not only dropouts but the streaming would just stop and the ND5 display an error message. Strange since my Airport Express has...

With my digital setup I have tried to understand all this talk about RFI chokes, with littleluck. Something about minimizing noise pollution into the system? Since these things should be cheap aobvious new tweek to play with, but where to buy and...

Hi every one Picked up my userve on Friday. All is going well so far, have ripped over 100 CDs so far quite painlessly. It's easy to use and I am finding nserve app on the iPad pleasant. I have been using its front logo to power down...

Am playing around with my Unitiqute and streaming via two routes from my Qnap NAS. The first is direct from the network into the Qute, the second is via my airport express and Macbook AIr using Songbird and Airfoil. Definite differences,...

Hi, are there any plans to add a key lock in further updates? My son, 16 month, loves to push the buttons on my Uniti.  Or are there any other ideas to avoid this? Thanks? Jan

A friend of mine has a Unitiqute and for some reason out of the blue the remote has stopped working apart from the volume and mute buttons. It did work perfectly well before and still can controlled using there iPhone app. Any ideals anyone...
