UnitiServe
compact hard disk server
UnitiServe is a CD ripping music server and the heart of UnitiSystem. Incorporating a 1Terabyte internal hard disk and able
to access almost limitless network storage, a single UnitiServe can easily store your entire music library and, thanks to Naim
UPnP™ server software, make it available simultaneously to multiple UPnP™-enabled players around the home – players like
NaimUniti or UnitiQute. But storing and streaming audio is only one part of UnitiServe. By accessing an online database it
will automatically catalogue all your stored music and make it easily accessible for selection by title, artist, genre, performers
and composer – you can even create and store your own playlists. Ripping a CD with UnitiServe is no more complicated than
inserting it into the loading slot and waiting a few minutes for it to be ejected.
UnitiServe can play and stream high-resolution audio fi les and it automatically scans the network for shared audio fi les –
including your iTunes library - in WAV, AIFF, FLAC, ALAC, OGG Vorbis, AAC, WMA and MP3 formats, making them available
for local playback and UPnP™ streaming. UnitiServe has a digital output for local connection to an external digital to analogue
converter or a digital input equipped amplifi er, so along with acting as the hub of a UnitiSystem UPnP™ streaming multi-room
set-up, it can be an add-on digital source bringing hard disk playback to a conventional hi-fi system. UnitiServe’s digital
technology and its ripping engine are based on the award-winning Naim HDX, the world’s fi rst upgradeable audiophile hard
disk player, and offer audio performance far superior to general purpose computer-based server solutions. It makes music you
can all but reach out and touch, all around the home.
UnitiServe, like HDX, is StreamNet-enabled for use within a NaimNet whole-home control environment and can be controlled
by a variety of interfaces – PC, Mac, touch screen, and an app for iPhone and iPod Touch devices. And for those with existing
network storage, a variant without internal hard-disk storage, the UnitiServe-SSD is also available.
