Streaming Audio

I have finally succeeded with making my HDX scan my network for other music stores. So now I can use it as a server or a streamer. With the new iradio it has turned into a great product that gives me access to all the music I can find. The HDX has...

As a member if the B&W Society of Sound I get a couple of HiDef albums to download per month. HiDef for SoS equals 24bit 48Khz. Peter Gabriel: Half Blood Analysis: Audacity reports the file as 24bit/48Khz. The waveform shows that this has been mastered with some proper dynamic swings, and you do hear this on replay. The Waveform: I've highlighted the section I used for frequency analysis. Frequency Analysis: If you are used to the HiFi News charts then please note: The logarithmic scale...

It appears that playlists created with Naim desktop client are limited to 500 tracks? Is this documented anywhere? The following is using a UnitiServe SSD with all music on external NAS. I like to create large playlist combining a few favourite...

Given the perceptions that the HDX sound quality is somewhere between the CD5x and the CDX2 dedicated players, and the mission of NAIM is to have the best sound quality of any manufacturer, it seems that there is room for a next-level HDX (555)? ...

I currently have a NS01, which just got even better with the addition of internet radio.  However, being that Naim has released a whole slew of networked products, I wonder if its the right unit for me.  While I like the Naimnet products,...

Hi, I am a newbie to this section so please apologize for the silly questions. I have just bought a UnityQute and want to stream music from my Mac using iTunes libraries. Looking at older posts, I got that one solution might be the use of...

B&W Sound Society HiDef download. 24bit 48Khz. Analysis: Audacity reports the file as 24bit/48Khz. The waveform of the 4th movement shows that this has been mastered with some proper dynamic swings, and you do hear this on replay. There is clipping at the end, as this is a live recording I assumed this was applause, au contraire! This is the end of a powerfully performed crescendo. The Waveform: Frequency Analysis: Please note: The logarithmic scale along the x-axis. The frequency graph:...

Three in/on-wall speakers were launched summer 2010. Anyone have information such as pricing? Also, does anyone have experience with a naimnet installation at home? A major home renovation looms and with it an opportunity to use my HDX-SD as...

Anyone using Asset Control as their UPnP control point? Do you like it? I use Asset as my server, free version only at present but it's pretty good. So I think it's worth trying the control point. It's still in beta but it seems the dBpoweramp people...

 James n started a thread wrt the new Linn DSM players where HDMI inputs were mentioned. Rather then hijack James' thread I thought I'd start a new one. My comment was: I am far from convinced. I tend to think of HDMI as digital scart, and while...

 Thought I might start posting some more in-depth reviews of my HiDef files, and decided to start by publishing my methodology. My hope is that we, the Naim Forum community, might be able to agree a standard system that is repeatable by any...

what's your opinion / experience - does this bring sound quality benefits? I've started to experiment with my CD rips and I think I like the "hires" versions better...

...and deliberately, but it IS a pain. Having gone to an NS01, and changed my coax to a Mark Grant jobby I can now hear a difference between flac and wav, and unfortunately wav is better. This weekend I decided to bite the bullet, which...

I've got 3 albums in my collection that i've got artwork trouble with. One of them is the Naim label download, Phantom Limb. For some reason 2 of the tracks have one set of artwork, the other 8 another set. In iTunes it looks fine but served via...

Is there any news to the bugs/faults to the current NDX, especially the hidef encapsulated art crashing problem? Is there going to be firmware update to the original streamer boards, or are the new boards going to be the fix to the current faults?...

When I borrowed an NDX for demo, one of the files I tried through it, a Linn 24/96 download from Linn wouldn't play. Just bursts of white noise as it skipped tracks through the album. Since getting my NDX I've found a few more that won't play. Some...

I bought my first Naim equipment this year, uniti, nap200 and powerline and am really pleased with the quality. However I'm really disappointed with the n stream app. I find it often doesnt respond to my uniti. And particularly the internet radio is...

I noticed the fan on my HDX was rather noisy today and looked at the internal temperature readouts (under "System Status").  They were 49-51 degrees (Celcius).  Is this typical or is this a little high?
