Streaming Audio
Does anyone know of a good PC/laptop based media controller for use with the Uniti?I don't have an iTouch so that's out.I've tried Twonky and the media manager lets you drag a song over the media output device (Uniti) and it then "pushes" the song out...
Anyone using this for ripping on the Mac ?James
Dear allI hope that this is the right place for this post.I have just bought a new laptop following the 'death' of my last one. My problem is that I have some 700 cds stored in a lossless format to an external hard drive, but when using my new laptop,...

I thought I might share some 'fun' I had last night with my HDX, setting the IP address.I forgot to connect the cable to the network, so the HDX booted, couldn't find a DHCP server, and defaulted to a private address.OK, I figured that after I...
Hi,Simple question, is Naim ever likely to produce a Digital Streamer similar to what Linn have produced.Just a streamer, so that you can use your own disk storage system and control system?CheersJohn
Does anybody check the difference between the n-Vi and the uniti at sound? Both will be good ( i guess ) Is it sound like the supernait?And is it possible to ad an extra power amp to each of them? If i like to drive my speakers with more power?And can...
I am able to use Itunes as a media server streaming to my NaimUniti? Or do I have to use Tversity or other such software?
In our supermarket, they are currently selling an Eee PC from Asus for 150 euro. It has a Linux operating system and a firefox browser.Does anybody now if I can see and work with the web interface from the HDX?
Hi I've searched previous posts but i don't think this Q has been covered. Apologies if it has.I just bought a EMU 0404 USB interface from Andertons in Guildford, UK (great shop if you're ever in the area) with the hope of improving on the dac...
First of all, Thanks Naim for allowing these types of discussions. With the dawn of the Naim DAC upon us, people will be looking for replay methods from computers. If on a PC, Foobar is the best possible choice.I thought I would share screenshots of...
I just went to my Naim dealer and spotted the handsome Uniti which can potentially replace near everything on my rack. Its functions include:Preamp (Replaces 202)Poweramp (Replaces 200)CD (Replaces CD5X)Network Streamer (Replaces Slim...
Posted here because distributed audio is the only way to play back audio sampled > 44k1 that I know. The HDX seems capable of it, so why doesn't Naim have say a 96k/24 version of this at it's download store? Could have been my first hi-res purchase...
Well i managed to slip out of work and i've seen the DAC myself now - i've been very interested given my front end is computer driven. I was quite lucky to get there early and so had the dem to myself. Unfortunately my dealer had laid on some live...
Can anyone recommend a tome that will get me started on understanding the multiplicity of options for setting up a computer based audio system?? I have an all Naim system (CDS3/252/300) and I use a Mac.Mike
Dear allI'm thinking of finally binning the piles and piles of CDs littering the house and going to a HDD / server based system. My naim amps will remain for now and comprise 82/Hi/180 into WB arcs. The CDP being replaced is a Meridian 588.I was going...
Hi all,I currently do most of my listening with my Apple tv hooked up to the Supernait via optical digital. Every so often when switching back to Aux 1 (for the Apple tv) a horrible noise comes out of the speakers, which can only be described as a...
I am struggling to create a "Track" playlist on my HDX.Whenever I create a playlist of tracks, and this part works OK, when a track has finished it doesn't go to the next track in the playlist but it goes to the next track on the album where it came...
Hi,Can I just canvass opinions to see if anyone has moved from iTunes on OSX to Foobar on Windows XP?How fraught was it? Any benefits in your move away from iTunes?The reason I ask, is I have compatibly issues with a firewire interface and my MacBook...
I can not see the HDX screen from my listening position and do not like operating it from my laptop. I also do not want to connect it via the TV. I have heard that you can get hand held tablets.Could someone answer the following please in laymans...
I've been living with an HDX for a few months now, and it's been a very interesting experience.Having listened to one at the Summer Sounds last year, and not drawing any particular conclusions, I found myself in a position to buy one, albeit blind. Of...
Hi all,Just wondering if anyone has done a detailed comparison of the DAC in the Uniti versus the internal CD Player using CD rips via a mac/pc or using streaming? Also, interested to hear what speakers people are using with it? Thanks
I have been trying some Amarra software with my mac,'standard' itunes sounds really flat and dull when you turn Amarra off, I can't quite see how software can make a difference to sound quality? Apologies if this has been discussed before.H
Any idea when the new software update will be available for the HDX?
Hi chaps,It has been told Naim new DAC will be based on the developments involved in the Bentley proyect, could anyone elaborate more on this?Particulary, how Naim DAC will approach jitter issue?Since there isn't any Naim white paper (this would be...
