Streaming Audio
I am planning on buying the Naim Uniti Nova. I have a budget of about 5000 pounds for the speakers. I listen mostly to classic rock - Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd etc but I am also fond of heavier stuff like Metallica, Iron Maiden, AC DC etc, Pearl Jam is another favourite of mine . Not really into classical music but I am hoping that will change after having this set up. So basically I am looking for speakers which have a good sound-stage, separation of instruments etc. I prefer engaging...
Apple TV updated to TVOS 11, any OS before there was no problem using airplay. Now it's a complete disaster, permanent blackouts. The product is unusable at all. (streamer version of qb is 1.5)
I can't find Magic Radio (aka Magic 105.4) from London on our shiny new Mu-so QB. I already have it as a preset on the 272 from when it was set up last year and it works fine but despite trying both the Naim app and Naim vTuner there's no Magic Radio that I can find. Neither can I find it when I do a new search on the 272, which is what I'd expect. I've also searched on Planet Radio and Bauer but to no avail. I'm probably doing something silly but any suggestions anyone please? Magic Radio...
Anybody experienced this using the app on NDX... A few months ago the volume on the SN2 was turning clockwise by itself when using the app on my smartphone to control the NDX when streaming from US. This happened a couple of times and fortunately I was close by to act before I ruined the speakers. Obviously I've got the SN2 and NDX linked with the remote cable. And I'm using the volume control on the app. It hadn't happened for a while until last weekend when me and the girlfriend were...
Something happened with my Naim application in my iPhone 6. Everything was working perfectly and today stopped. I reinstalled application and it doesn't see any product. I used sequences from Welcome page: Setup new product - Uniti Core - Next.... and program starts never-ending searching. Any ideas?
Looks like Qobuz will introduce a Sublime+ subscription in May 2017 which will allow streaming of approx. 60,000 albums in hi-res 24bit (not just albums purchased as with Sublime) . Since their takeover they seem to have stabilised and grown, expanding into more European countries with others planned. Is this enough for Naim to finally consider supporting Qobuz? I am fed up with erratic 16bit Tidal and poor quality mp3 on Spotify and these offerings do not offer the best quality to match...
I have a Naim Nac N-272 which I have been using to stream Tidal on for the last year or so. Yesterday, I changed my wifi setup by adding a supplemental router to try to cover for the Sky Box inadequacies I've faced for some time. The Sky box is still acting as modem with a Linksys router plugged into it. Sky wifi has been disabled. My 272 is hard wired to the Sky box still and shouldn't (as fas as I understand it) therefore be affected by the wifi change. However, I now cannot get my iPad to...
I have acquired a Cisco 2960 ttl with bespoke 48v linear power supply to get a definitive appraisal for myself vs Paul Pang Zyxel tcxo and ocxo switches. Please could the forum (Simon in Suffolk particularly) tell me how to set up a cisco 2960. I have factory reset it, I am only using it as my hifi switch, so which 2 Ethernet inputs do I use and to get sound from it. so far I have to press the little tab on the front to the 3rd LED. Is this the best setting for it and is there a way to...
I've bought naim muso qb last weekend. During use, i have a problem with it. Sometimes i can't switch on, only power button glow. I was try many times to turn on but nothing happend. The first times after 1 day, i tried and it's worked. But now the seconds times, nothing happened. Anybody know what's happen with it and what should i do? Thanks all.
I've had the Atom for a couple of weeks now and am really enjoying it with my Focal Aria 926's. It replaced a UnitiLite. Whilst it has tremendous grip on the speakers up until the volume 55 mark, after that point, vocals become edgy and the speakers lose their grip and therefore difficult to listen to. Realise its early days yet and perhaps the Atom needs more playtime but I read the "possible upgrade path" section on Naim's website suggesting a NAP 100. Here's my question to the forum - why...
I am using a QNAP NAS with Asset serving my 272 with both ripped and downloaded music. I have been reading about the new Uniti Core and its great SQ and was wondering if it would be worth it for me to transfer my music to a Uniti Core. I will be ripping an occasional CD in the future. I currently will use DB poweramp and my Mac's drive for ripping. Will there be an audible difference in SQ and will it be more convenient. What software does the Core use and is it at least as good as Asset. Thanks
I just spotted a BT advert promoting their 'Mini Hub' wifi extenders. " The BT Mini Hub sends your home hub's wi-fi signal through your electricity lines , then broadcasts again to cover those hard-to-reach places. You can use as many BT Mini Hubs as you like, and build your home wi-fi so it covers every area you want" It's concerning & confusing; most people on the forum consider them to be bad as they pollute both ethernet & electricity, including the electricity in nearby...
Why do we have to make all flacs in the same album have the same artist in the artist field. This is so so unacceptable. We need a new field to create an album among flacs and leave the artist field, which is full of very nice information, alone. Who makes these standards? Who do we b to about getting some improvements on these old standards written in stone. Yes the metadata works but that is no reason to never improve upon it. Honestly we need a release schedule for the flac metadata...
Hi all, brand new forum member as of this very morning despite having had Mu-So x 3 for a while and now an Atom.... can anybody help me with a challenge on the Naim app?? I use an InnuOS ZenII mini media server and have ripped my 500 CDs... three albums as I have seen thus far, all Queen Of The Stone Age rip perfectly well on the Zen and can be viewed through any other media app to be albums by the correct artist.. however, on the Naim app it will not pick up QoTSA as the artist. In fact it...
I recently copied 2 cd's of .wav files to my ReadyNAS 102 storage from my PC using Exact Audio Copy. To keep things in order, I made a folder of the named CD, with subfolders called Disc 1 and Disc 2. After EAC had finished copying, I checked the files were there on the NAS, which they were. I restarted the NAS and, later on, accessed the folder(s) through the menu system on my Unitilite. It showed the files listed for Disc 1, but the Disc 2 folder as (Empty). I rechecked the folders through...
Hi there, I'm trying to update my Firmware on my SU to the current version from the v3. I'm on a Mac Air (os 10.10) but when I get to 'select a port' from the updater the only port it shows is the Bluetooth one which doesn't do anything. I've followed the instructions: hooked up the cables, downloaded the driver and installed it (and it shows in the info screen for the USB drive). The USB cable I bought says its good for: " This USB cable allows you to connect USB Mini compatible devices...
Well the subject tells it all: based on what you know and / or (since the Nova is available in the shops meanwhile) actually have heard for yourself - are you tempted to upgrade your Uniti 2 in favour of a Nova or Star (when it will be available)? If so, why?
All of a sudden, my BBC Radio 4 preset has become the "LW" version and when I go to the UK station choices and click on BBC Radio 4 instead of it streaming the station, I get a list of programmes... WTF?
I'd like to start a list of ISPs and their routers for those that stream from Tidal. I've seen a few forum members are experiencing problems which look like they come down to the routers the ISP provide. My current fibre deal runs out mid December so I'm keen to see which ISPs have no issues and which should be avoided.
I had the good fortune of ordering a Uniti Nova in February which gave me plenty of time to work out how I should be ripping and cataloguing my modest classical music CD collection—as well as enabling me to download high resolution music as the time passed until delivery. As I sat listening to glorious music from the Nova this afternoon it occurred to me that some brief comments about software might help others (although most here seem to know what they’re doing!). Bear in mind these...
When using the Naim iOS App to play a Tidal or UPnP playlist, where it is already set to shuffle, it always starts with the same track (the first one). When the Naim App is already set to shuffle it should start with a random track.
Does anyone know what Error Code 315 means, currently it blocked me from using my Atom. If it's not serious, how does one clear it. I cannot access the factory reset because of this error message.
Am I doing something wrong? I'm trying to play an album (or playlist) on Tidal by clicking the arrow above the whole track listing and it only plays the first track. Do I have a setting wrong?
So Naim support and associate with Q buz, but provide no Q buz support on there products. https://www.gramophone.co.uk/awards/2017
If you have been unable to get your Atom or Nova to play Tidal read on this may help you. My Atom has been great, however whilst everything worked, the App could see my Tidal account and music, however when I press play on the App nothing would happen (just to confirm Tidal worked fine on my NDS). Follow work with my dealer and Naim support, we found the cause and solution was easy. My Tidal password used a part of the extended character set e.g. !"£$%^&*#, by resetting the password to...
