Since I have borrowed and fitted a Terralink X2, I get no music with Bitperfect enabled. I was working but I guess something has changed but I can't see what that might be. It doesn't seem to matter at what bit rate or depth the settings are if...

A few years ago now, I had a nice old Marantz CD recording machine that, unlike most, was also excellent at playback. Of course this was not so fine as a CDS2 by quite a degree, though it made good music even so. At the time the Lavry D10 was all the rage, and I was lucky to listen to a nice system where a MAC laptop [not sure of model] was feeding the Lavry. It was very pleasing, and got me to thinking about iTunes with its splendid user interface. I knew that if the sound was right then...

Hi, Please help! After updating (successfully!?) my Uniti to 3.9 I'm not able to get access to the setup menu to e.g. enter the w-lan key. I can only use to volume up and down on the remote. I've got no idea. Thanks for your help. Jan

I have been enjoying listening to the new ND5XS over the past week and it is sounding fantastic with my 152xs/Flatcapxs/155xs.  I access my FLAC music files via both Asset and Squeezebox Server UPnP servers using the n-stream app on my iPod...

After updating my Uniti to the latest firmware, some flac files I play via USB stick will end a few seconds earlier than before.Have someone seen the same problem?I will try to play these files via UPnP.

Still need to use my squeezebox touch. If ND5XS gets spotify, I'll ditch the touch in a heartbeat.

I use HD Tracks download manager and have found that, since the ndac can accept flac and I no longer have to convert to wav, the start of some songs is softened as though it loses the initial transient pluck of guitar or similar. I normally put Hi-Def...

Dear All,Season's Greetings to everybody. I have recently purchased a brand new NDX, my first piece of Naim equipment (previously Arcam FMJ) and I have to say that I am very impressed with the sound quality and performance so far. At the...

Does anyone know whether the next version of Nstream will show album art when the iPod/iPhone is plugged into the NDX USB port? I know it's possible as my car shows my iPhone album art on the dash display when plugged in. I also note the meta data is...

From time to time (maybe once a week) my Unitiqute decides it would like to turn up the volume to full or turn down the volume to 0.  It's a fun surprise, I suppose.  I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem - I swear I'm not...

My Unitiserve SSD seems to have just lost it's Music Store so wasn't ripping new CDs. I was able to create a new share on the NAS and register this as the new Music Store and rip to it. I noticed that the original Music Store had hit 500 albums, so I...

This might well be a deal breaker for anyone contemplating buying an SU, but the bad news is that I have a small but growing collection of albums coded in Apple Lossless which the SU absolutely will not stream. The encoding is in iTunes 10.5.1 and the...

Hi.I recently replaced my ageing amplification (NAP90/NAC92) with a NAC202/NAP200/non-Naim PSU. Quite a change! This new gear has revealed to me hitherto unnoticed differences between digital music files of different resolutions and in files played...

Today I red the FAQ about the servers, and found out that they do not support 24/192 files. Will there be a hardware upgrade for the servers in the future? Like the upgrade for the other Streamers that has just been released? Claus
