Streaming Audio

For those of you who run a headless Mac mini. How do you rip everytime you buy new cd?Do you have other PC/Mac for this purpose?

Hi AllFollowing on from the ReadyNAS Duo thread.....I'm looking into getting a NAS to go with my Uniti however I'm unsure as to which one to get. I have seen the list of which ones Naim have tested, however I would be interested to see what everyone...

Hi,My logitech transporter is connected to Naim DAC with a DC 1. My question what is optimal settings for audio settings in squeezebox server to get get top notch audio?There are sooo many config settings in squeezebox...digital o/p encoding..word...

HiI have a Mac Book pro, itunes etc, Cambridge DAC and Naim system. I mostly use the HDX/CDs but like the occasional song downloaded from iTunes (at 256?)Can I get these on to the HDX some how?Or, if playing from the Mac, how can I do it wirelessly....

Hi, sorry if this is basic, but that's the stage I'm at!I have a uniti and macbook pro. Can I store the high quality streamed music off the uniti on the computer and if so, how?ThanksAmer

So far I have ripped about 250 CDs, 6 of them cannot be ripped completely or some digital noise is induced in the ripped file. This happen only in last track of the CD, including a brand new Yo-Yo Ma CD that I bought last week.Is this only the disc...

I realise that this topic is not exactly new but I would like to bring it to Naim's attention again. I am sure that there are a lot of HDX owners out there who are impatiently waiting for the next real software upgrade for the HDX (and not the...

Current user of HDX, if only could affort either one to improve sound quality, despite the cost difference which one should be picked?Thanks!

Hi I am currently setting up the following: Mac Mini with SSD drive & Amarra Mini software, Weiss Dac 2 into Naim 102 with Supercap 2, 135s x 2 and a CDX2 (which I hope will become redundant.) My question: I want to get the best possible quality so, say a particular album was only available as mp3 download from iTunes, would I be better buying the actual CD and then ripping that? Your advice will be greatly appreciated. Ian

Naim dac will be arrived tomorrow It will be compared to my Audio Note Dac in the company of 282/HC/250.2 setup.The Weiss Dac 2 is also coming on this Saturday. Am I having too much fun or what?!Finally, I hope to be able to meet up with Skip to...

Hi folks,we had some posts here about "whatsoundsbetter" a Linn Majik DS+DAC or a Akurate DS?A german hifi magazin tested a Sneaky+DAC against Akurate. Winner was Akurate in their opinion... They mentioned that the source of DAC plays a fundamental...

Hi,Forgive my ignorance. Can someone explain the "whole" Mac thing ref Naim equipment?I have always used PC's, but I don't understand in conjunction with DAC why everyone keeps talking about Mac. I use a Logitech Transpoter, is it another way of...

I write this post with some frustration and apprehension, however my experience with my Uniti has not lived up to my expectations of Naim products.Having persevered with it for over two months, my main complaint is with the robustness of its wireless...

Do any of the beta testers know whether the upgrade will enable me to rip individual tracks from a disc rather than the whole thing? Have a lot of comp discs bought for only a couple of tracks on each with the rest being dross.Alternatively, if the...

Does anyone uses the Apple Universal Dock in combination with the Naim DAC? I want to know if it also sends out the digital signal by usb to the Naim DAC. As a cable I use the original cable that comes with the iPod.

I had a demo of HDX/DAC/555PS last week and was very impressed with the sound. So much so I'm demoing again this week at home to compare against my CDS3/555PS.I do have a few questions though. I think these are mainly aimed at those people who are...

Has anyone had any success with this particular set up? I've read that the Express has an optical output but not sure what cable i'd need to make the connection to the AV2 and whether it can decode the Apple files or not and then output them through...

A furtive meeting at Rothersthorpe Services bagged me a DAC on Friday night - couldn't wait to get it home. A bit of cable reorganisation and it's ready to go - couldn't resist a quick listen before bed. Blimey, a very different presentation - even...

I am very grateful to the members on this message board for the views and advice which generally augments that available from dealers.I have been keenly following the developments on the Ovators since I heard them last year and pre ordered there and...

I'm going to have some work done on my lounge so I'm thinking of having it wired with ethernet cable. I'm just confused as to which I should go for - 5, 5e, 6, 6e or 7? Probably by the time I get round to it there'll be a 7e and 8. Is there any...

Recently acquired a Nokia N900 but as I'm a linux noob I need help being pointed in the right direction to see if its possible to control foobar (running on a 64bit xp server) to my uniti, similar to the iphone remote app pluginThe phone itself...

While we wait (and wait) for a Naim iPhone app, v3.0 of PlugPlayer is out now.Improved UI over previous version, but seems fairly buggy from just a few minutes use.John

My Naim DAC is coming next week.I plan to connect it to Logitech Transporter BNC output (transformer coupled) with Naim DC1 BNC-BNC. This will occupy one DAC's BNC input but the second BNC will be still available.The other source will be PC/USB. I...

I've got my demo of the Naim DAC booked for this Friday. I've just realised that all my digital music is stored in Apple lossless and the Naim DAC doesn't recognise this. Apparently ITunes doesn't recognise FLAC files. So how am I going to get my...

Do you know which WiFi standard is used for Naim Uniti (or UniQute) connection : 802.11g or 802.11n ? 2,4 Ghz or 5 Ghz band ? I did not find this information in Naim documentation.
