Hello all, This morning my Apple TV wiped itself brand spanking clean with not a single song left on it. It happened at the same time we experienced loss of our high speed service. No big deal at some level but need to leave the re-sync to run over...

Is the Uniti capable of using a touch screen display by simply plugging it in to the Uniti. If so, which makes/models are compatible?

Hi,I am considering a Naim DAC/XS/FC2X system and am thinking of what I should have at the front end. I can’t afford a HDX so my options are a Mac Mini or Squeezebox. I am not really into PCs.The Mac mini is attractive as both my partner and I...

Hi - I want to introduce some form of high quality computer-based source into my system eventually (Naim DAC/Mac Mini perhaps) but will start modestly and get to know what it all means. So I have bought a Cambridge DacMagic which I want to hook up to...

If i want buy a SNAXO or/and a SUPERCAP, the BURNDY cable is not included with the SNAXO or SUPERCAP. I find that it's stupid and it's only a trick to make more $$$$$$What do you think about that?Regards,Jean-Yves L(jyno 50)

Probably a question for James N. For those of you that own a Mac Mini & Amarra Software and have upgraded to a SSD - would you recommend the SSD upgrade? If so why? Which one did you use? I'm NOT concerned about "noise" associated with the hard disk (there isn't any) nor potential failure (I back up the system) - only potential for increased musical performance. Regards Richard
