Just telling you i sold my HDX. Extremly tired of "the new software" issue. How hard can it be!!

Does anyone know when Naim will have a itouch application (similiar to Linn) available for the Uniti?

I asked Naim about a NAS device, and in the reply, they said that in the next release of software for the HDX, in May, the HDX will be able to not only rip and store to its own internal drive, but also directly to a NAS. (Direct quote).

Selling all my Naim gear. Linn here i come!!

Hi, Is anybody using a Apple time capsule, i'm dipping my toe in the darkside. I have purchased a Minimac and Iomega minimax harddrive, but have been offered a new 1 TB time capsule at very sensible price. I suppose the question is it worth it?KR Kev

I have a Uniti, and am wondering about the best way to connect up an iPod to it. I understand from reading the manual that there is a special Naim cable that connects the iPod to the back of the Uniti. Questions:1) Does this by-pass the iPod dac and...
