Streaming Audio

Hello all, Question to the forum: do you have experience with DACs that use an asynchronous USB input? Having backed up my CD collection to AIFF on a Mac and wanting to check the rips, I had some difficulty hooking up the Mac directly to the...

Does anyone know whether it's possible to add addition language support to NDX for the display? For example, if I buy an NDX that only supports English on the display, but would like to add Chinese/Japanese/Korean to the NDX ... Would that be...

Hi guys,I currently do all my serious listening with vinyl, but have a lot of music on my iMac that currently is streamed to a Squeezebox on my second system. I've been considering adding a streamer to my main system (552, active 250.2s SL2s) but I'm...

I was a big fan of Foobar. Actually I normally use it to do the try the new albums/tracks, convert wav, wv and ape to flac and draw the tags from internet or edit tags manually. Then I copy it to NAS and stream.  How can I do the same...

My pc sounds better at streaming files to my streamer than the Synology NAS. Both became better once I converted the files to wav instead of having software do the conversion on the fly. Just wondering if anyone has any experience running the...

Never thought I'll see something like this: I decided to put my music up on the Synology NAS. Seeing an interesting phenomena: When I stream from my PC music sounds nice and open. When I stream it from teh NAS, it sounds compressed. In both...

The HDX is real fast at updating the meta data because it stores the data in the XML files. However iTunes etc is not reading this info. I am now using the db poweramp file name to convert over some of meta data. However this is painful and not all...

Here's a little question for those of you who own both iPhone and iPad.  I'm currently using my iPhone 3GS to control my NDX, but am occasionally annoyed by the fact that the list display (e,g.in Album/Artist) does not scroll on an individual...

Happy Sunday, folks! I have just been looking into various forms of 'audiophile' playback software for Mac.  I use a 2011 Mac Mini, Wireworld Supernova Cable into a Naim Dac, onto a Supernait. I currently play tracks through Enqueue,...

Why is the art work for an album restricted to a square that resembles a CD cover why can it not be a bit more interesting?  Ogden's Nut Gone Flake had a really interesting cover both on the vinyl record and is the CD sweet tin, but when we...

One of the main arguments for the streaming paradigm is that you can have all the information pertaining to a track or album easily at hand in a form you prefer to read on your choice of wireless device. iTunes only really offers rather basic...

I have got an HDX and have ripped all my CDs.  The preferred format for the HDX is WAV so that's how the files are kept - I'm not aware that you even get a choice.  The cover art displays perfectly well wherever I choose to look at it - the...

I thought i'd just post an update on my NDX having had it nearly 2 months now. I must admit to being a bit apprehensive about moving back to a Naim front end after the Linn. The Linn experience had been superb. Quality hardware, great useability...

See Doug Graham interview on the audiostream.com site:"In February we will launch our top-of-the-line NDS streaming network player at the Bristol Sound and Vision Show".

Hi I noticed there are a number of Spotify apps on the Apple App store, has anyone tried these? If so which ones did you find useful and why? Or is it better to use Spotify via the Sonos app, if you have a ZP90? Last but not least,...

I've bought one or two 192/24 recordings, including Meet Me in London. What I'd like to do is demonstrate sound quality at various rates - 192/24, 96/24, 44/16 and some grot MP3. But ideally without having to pay for the same music multiple times.does...

Forgive me if this has been asked before but is there an easy to use programme that can look up the cd library on the Nserve and export it to Excel so it can be sorted and then printed out. I know this sounds very lame but I have ripped an...

There is a new app for iphone and Ipad called Airvinyl, which claims to bring the analog warmth to digital music. This is a very big claim. I have tried it, and I can't really tell if it does bring analog warmth, but it does something, which makes...

I have on order a Uniti Serve.  It appears that DTC - used to edit etc is a Windows only application :-(My computer guy is suggesting partitioning the Mac and installing Windows - both at a cost of course!Does anyone know of another way around...

As you know, the SuperUniti was Naim's first 192 kHz compliant streamer/amplifier. Having downloaded the "Meet Me In London" album in the 192 Super High Def Edition, I listened to the album on my SuperUniti (wireless) but the frequent dropouts and...

Can anyone tell me what demo tracks were used for the NDS at Bristol ? Brush With The Blues - Jeff Beck (From the Album "Who Else!" ?) Any others ?

Hello community, since I've updated my UNITI to 3.9 I've a strange and not predictable behavior on my n-stream app. Sometimes the shown structure (from my twonky server 6 running on a qnap) is mapped correct and sometimes the mapping is incorrect....

Hello community, I'm thinking about a further upgrade of my "old" UNITI beside the 192kHz sampling board exchange which is almost a done deal. It's in the direction to add a NAP200 or NAP250.2. Now it's your turn ;-) ... looking again on your...

I am about to purchase a Unitiserve, probably the SSD version. This will connect to my lovely new Supernait. There are so many NAS drives on the market, so I need one that is fully compatible with Naim. Can anyone who has a Unitiserve, give me an idea...

Ok so I have been running my NDX for a year, feeding it with transcoded FLAC to WAV (using Asset) from my laptop.  This has been streaming wirelessly to an Airport Extreme router that is wired with Cat5e to my NDX. This week I invested in a...
