Qobuz Streaming support for Naim Audio
24th January 2020
Free update enables high-resolution streaming up to 24bit/192kHz
Naim Audio has announced the availability of native Qobuz support to its streaming family.
Enabled via a free over-the-air firmware upgrade, the update will enable Naim owners to access Qobuz streaming services – including streaming up to 24bit/192kHz quality – from within the Naim control app.
Qobuz’s streaming services are currently available in 12 countries, including the US, UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland and Luxembourg.
The Naim Qobuz update is scheduled to be released for Uniti Atom, Star and Nova systems plus ND5 XS2, NDX 2 and ND 555 network players.
An update for Naim Mu-so 2nd Generation and Naim Mu-so Qb 2nd Generation wireless speakers will follow in Spring 2020 (in the meantime, owners of the speakers can enjoy Qobuz in up to 24bit/96kHz quality via Chromecast).
Users will need a Qobuz subscription: 30-day free trials will be available via a link in the Naim control app, which is available for iOS and Android devices.
