Hi, I have got my Uniti streaming radio from my BT home hub, no problem. But what I would like to do is also listen to Whirl-y Wave 'radio'. Right now I can listen to it via my iMac, but I had to down load something on itunes which connects it.Is...

Got home last night and booted-up the HDX as usual(I leave it on standby mode when not in use for more than 8 hours, as the DAC is always powered up via an XPS2). Got changed, came back to listen to some tracks, then noticed the display on the HDX was...

Is there any chance to have a SSD Drive version of HDX instead of 400g *2 version offically?Or can we swap the 400g*2 to SSD *2 and clone the firmware to SSD ? anyone tried or idea about it? Thanks a lot

I suspect a problem with my HDX.Sometimes - not always - when I rip a brand new (!!) CD and play it afterwards, one or two songs have one (1) drop-out in the music. This usely occurs at second 5 or 6 from the song. When I re-rip, it disappears, but on...

Does anyone know the current version of the NaimUniti firmware.Mine says 1.0.0.However, I've been told the current version is 1.0.1.Is that true? And if so — is there a difference?

This week-end, I heard the N-DAC (with and without 555PS) --> Hi-line --> Supernait.I also had the opportunity to compare this to a HDX (without PS) (--> Hi-line --> SN).Results :* the DAC outperforms the HDX.* With the 555PS, the DAC...

Hi,I'm interested in using an M-Audio Transit instead of the noisy onboard sound in my PC. The fact that several people here use one is encouraging, as is the fact that Naim even seem to be semi-endorsing it in the DAC white paper.However, after a...

I will be getting a the Naim DAC at some point. Which way is best to integrate my imac & itunes stored songs with it? I was thinking imac to apple tv to DAC via optical out ? Would this sound better/ be more user friendly than my iphone by itself. It will be mainly for background listening, not supercritical listening. I intend using the CDX2, DAC, 555PS for that. Cheers, Pete

I've seen this on a Hifi Show.http://www.qnap.com/pro_detail_feature.asp?p_id=117It's a combination of a NAS and a media player.In my opinion, because it has a digital out, it can be connected to the DAC and is a cheaper alternative then a MAC-miniThe...

Is there a way to reset HDX to restore it to "factory settings"? Thanks

Just bought a new Netgear router and a new laptop but having trouble communicating between the HDX and the laptop via the desktop client.The HDX is connected wired to the router, the laptop wirelessley. Each works fine alone but if the HDX is booted...

So, after many night's work more or less all CDs are ripped and saved on a NAS on my Uniti. It's just great to listen to music this way and with PlugPlayer it is quite convenient to control the Uniti with my iPhone.But out of about 300 CD's there are...

Hi,I am using the HDX through my home network router (LINKSYS),accessing the player using my IE browser and it was working fine.When i powered off and on, and started the Desktop Client,the Naim set IP tool asked to update the IP and i choose the...

Hello, Just in the planning phase regarding my digital future (looking forward to regaining some space in the home by putting all the CDs in the cellar)...I understand that...IF you are going to have a naim DAC, THEN you just need the NS01 to rip...

Wires, routers, switches, complicated settings are history! A Dutch audio site mentioned that Wifi Alliance (Intel, Cisco, Apple) have announced the new wifi standard. In two words: it enables a wireless connection between 2 devices without using a...

Hi,is there any news about the high-end NAIM DAC?Price, schedule, functions? ThanksRalf

When I stream songs into the Uniti and they have certain symbols ( & * or umlauts etc) in their title, the Uniti does not play the song, it just goes back to re-initialize the input and I have to choose the drive, artist etc all over. The Uniti also plays the songs from the highest # to lowest... which makes listening to classical music impossible. Has anyone experienced the same problems? Thanks Nick

HiI am using a Uniti with a QNAP219P NAS with Twonky 4.417 pre-installed. Question 1:It's been working fine and I decided as I was away for a few days to power down the Uniti and the NAS (in accordance with the instructions). Upon restarting it up,...

Does anyone know - can you get the BBC radio streams direct to a NaimUnity? I have a friend who's abroad and considering the NaimUnity but wants BBC radio if possible.Eloise

Hi,I've just a macbook pro with optical out and thought I'd connect this with Supernaits optical input in front. In order to this I need an optical cable with 3,5 minijack in both ends. The problem is that they seem to be hard to come by. Does anyone...

If anyone knows how Naim designed the S/PDIFF decoder in new DAC?Is it something special or just an ordinary solution based on CS chips?This is critical for further jitter handling. Top DACs use the dedicated smart decoders to assure the data from...

I know both Naim DAC & Squeezbox Touch not being launched yet. But just wondering if HDX sounds wonderful as well, I may not consider non naim product... Just wondering to ask HDX users for the ripping CD, can I pull out those ripped files out to my NAS for storage purpose? Further, can I just use HDX as streamer which reading files from NAS rather than activate the internal Hard Disc?
