Streaming Audio

Current set up- Supernait with Squeezebox 3 Ethernet- via QED Coaxial into SN DAC. Server is Dell PC with 300gb hard drive connected via USB. Would it be better sonically if I used my laptop with hard drive attached and use SPDIF into the SN- to take...

use my iMac to watch video DVD. The iMac is connected to my NAP 122x, using some cheap cable, and the sound is, guess what? Lousy. Using a mediocre audio standard, the Macintosh analog output and a low cost cable, this is not a big surprise.I am...

Guys,I'm just taken delivery of my Uniti and I'm having some issues with the tags on FLAC files I hope someone may be able to shed some light on. The uniti menu can't see the artist, album or genre in the main menu, if however you go through 'all...

I have tried two different USB memory sticks with my Uniti. The first (a Staples own brand)worked immediately; the second (a Sandisk from my local HMV store) doesn't work at all, even after I deleted all of the files that came with it (doing this...

Hi AllI've just had my Uniti upgraded, absolutely seamlessly - thanks to Infidelity! I've downloaded a couple of tracks and they sound great - spacious and better resolved.I'm struggling to find a good source of more mainstream 24/96 music. One of the...

Can anyone assist...?Can I stream content from my iMac to the Naim DAC using my iPhone (connected to the DAC via USB)?I had understood that PlugPlayer on the iPhone plus Eyeconnect on the iMac would allow this, but an having difficulty.Eyeconnect...

I guess many of us have big libraries of Apple Lossless files organised by iTunes. As long as I have an iPod I don't expect that to change. Plus I, for one, don't really want to change because I quite like the convenience of iTunes and the ability to...

On 6 moons: HiFace ReviewM

Guys,Could you help me please. I have most of my music saved on iTunes in WAV format, which at the moment gets played via an I pod into the Naim DAC ( while i save for a Macbook ). I have also downloaded some high resolution music from Naim / Linn...

I listen to lossless music stored on an ipod connected to a naim dac.Works great but have some questions:1/ I noticed that I can use forward on the ipod, but the rewind button does not work. Why?2/ I did not succeed in connecting a usb key (did not...

This is a follow up my previous post here I didn't want it to be burried in another thread because the really deserve it.I really owe a very big thank you to Phil Harris and Paul Preston for helping me out with my problem on the HDXThey remotely...

Setup: Airport with Uniti, RipNas and HDX connected. Uniti can stream the music from the RipNas. But wen I try to connect the RipNas to the HDX it is always displayed as Offline on the HDX. What's the problem?Any hints are welcome

Hello Naimees,My HDX is at a retailer at the moment and they say that the new software update will erase all the music from it.Is that true? I saw something about playlist being deleted...but not the whole music. The other question is how can I find...

I found an instance when the sync light goes out. I had the DAC at home and thought I would pull the old Rega Planet out of my son's room and hit it with the DAC. It synced at first but then the light went out between songs. The sound was not great...

All this talk of (the new) SSD, streaming, NAS and such has got me thinking about quality and fitness for purpose of the hardware used when it comes to storing and accessing valuable and sometimes irreplaceable copies of much loved music. I'll start...

Hi,I'm using Eyeconnect transcode Apple Lossless to Wav so it can be played on the Naimuniti. It works well, but I have quite an annoying issue that I'm hoping someone will have an answer to.When looking at the Eyeconnect songs on the Naimuniti, the...

I thought the following would be of interest to those seeking further info on USB interfaces and the use of that standard for streaming audio/video.HEREOn the face of it it gave me the answer I was looking for..i.e. Audio devices using USB do not...

I just got the latest version of the software and while I haven't gone through everything here are a few things which I noticed and some may be helpful to others.FYI: I'm not sure if this is universal, but when I download music and then transfer to my...

OK people my new HDX arrived yesterday and I'm busily loading all my CDs on to it.I have a Netgear ReadyNAsDuo attached to my router. I'm running OSX on an iMac and a Macbook Pro. The NAS has the default setup. I have promoted the media folder on the...

I need some suggestions for recording vinyl to an iMac from a turntable/Naim Uniti set-up. I also have a TC konnekt8 that links the iMac and Uniti by a firewire cable.Do I need any other equipment (i.e., can I use the konnekt8 as an A/D...

Now that I have had the software upgrade for my HDX I have added additional storage (QNAP) to allow me to get the rest of my cds on. I have created a folder called Music as the Music Store location, and am using one of the existing NAS folders to...

Up until now, everything worked fine. Today I imported three new albums (Elvis Costello: Secret, Profane & Sugarcane, Marc Cohn: Marc Cohn and Rodrigo y Gabriela: 11:11). Everything looks fine on importing with the importmonitor showing progress in importing the songs, the CDs get ejected, but when I try to find the albums, there is nothing in the HDX. It still says on system monitor that there is 20GB of space left. What to do? Any help is appreciated. Gaudenz

As a novice, am hoping others with more experience can clarify.When I go to Amazon.com and read the often detailed user reviews of the NAS units listed as being 'approved' on the Naim list, almost all seem have have user complaints regarding either...

I've compared playback from the iPod classic and USB; the latter wins hands down.Has anyone compared USB and iPod Touch? I'm wondering if the solid state memory in the Touch brings it closer to USB playback.ThanksJan

Hello everyone.Maybe this is a really stupid question and has been discussed to death already (search turned up zip tough). The user manual and the white-paper also failed to enlighten me.Does anybody know in which order the Naim DAC does order WAV...
