Streaming Audio

mantisgbPosted: 07 May 2011Last Updated: 08 May 2011
In 2007 I spent my first reasonable amount on hifi gear. I went out with the intention of buying some floorstanding speakers, but came home with a Nait 5i and a pair of Dynaudio Audience 50s. I paired this up with my Rega Planet and was happy for a while. Anyway, then I bought a Squeezebox Classic and that took over with the convenience of streaming media. Then of course, Naim got into the game. I resisted until this weekend. I went to the shop and listened to the UnitiQute and an equivelant...

Not sure if  this will be of any use or interest to anyone here but I just wanted to say a bit about my entry into the world of Naim audio as a new user. Last week I invested in a Uniti and Serve set up (upgrading from Arcam) and using my...

Does anyone know of a fix for a problem with loading new N-serve on the Ipad. It did work until recently now the app just sits in "loading" mode indefinately and no way to break out or reconnect. I know its not connectivity problem as the Songbook app...

Been using xAct to rip my cds to FLAC, but finding it a bit annoying that i need to rip to wav first and then convert to FLAC.  Any suggestion of a better alternative (preferably free)? thanks

NDX & UnitiServe set up & workingwell (playing nicely with the XPS/82/250/SBL's). How can I play Pandora or Rhapsody through the system? I have an iPad and a Windows Vista PC on the network, but can't work out how to stream from those websites. I searched pervious threads but couldn't find anything. Any help appreciated.

complete novice to this so bear with me (please)..... i have a NaimUniti (still not got a NAS yet) & today thought i'd rip a few albums to my laptop via EAC to FLAC format. EAC has been set up according to the guide here:  http://blowfish.be/eac/setup i've set up a folder where the FLACS get placed, in that folder are the Album Names, within the album's are the tracks I thought i'd try using my laptop as a NAS to see how things go so installed...

Looks like there is a new Klimax DS out there.  Anyone have an idea on this?  I am looking at both solutions.

Just a quick question before i arrange a demo... I manage all my music using iTunes (ripped via XLD). My collection is AIFF format.  Music is stored on a NV+ NAS and a Mac mini is used as a UPnP server. The UPnP server and control point app...

Hi Guys, I have the NDX on order, and I am in the process of looking at a NAS.  So far I have ripped half my CDs to FLAC on a laptop using DBPoweramp and will transfer them to the NAS as soon as I get it (streaming to the NDX from the...

Been ripping my CD collection using my UnitiServe-SSD to a QNAP NAS.  Everything was going swimmingly until I tried to rip the Four Rachmaninov Piano Concertos by Vladmir Ashkenazy, a two CD album.  The first CD ripped fine and was...

I will soon be experimenting with a HiFace USB converter.  Scored it for a good price in an Ebay auction.   Without realizing it, I purchased a HiFace with a BNC termination.  My DAC offers BNC digital input, but I have no experience...

Hi This might be a silly question but is the nDAC able to convert all digital signals it is fed via S/PDIF? For example, if a file in iTunes is in AIFF or ALAC and served to the nDAC by a Sonos ZP90 or directly via Hiface/DC1, can the nDAC...

Hi - anyone have a notion of when Naim are going to issue a patch that allows the NDX to stream 176Khz and 192 Khz files?
