Hi all,
For digital I use the Linn Majik DS streamer/DAC to feed NAC82 powered by Hicap, and a NAP200. Speakers Dynaudio Focus 220ii. Naim interconnects and speaker cables.
Have you compared the Majik to the ND5XS2? I really enjoy the Linn, but you know. Naim all the way is tempting.
Hope all is well with everyone.

Does the ND5XS2 play flac Internet Radio? Not according to the Naim spec.
I dont know? I dont use internet radio, don’t even know if the Linn play internet radio?
of course it does
Linn streamers plays Internet Radio incl. 24/192 flac.
Linn Airable Internet radio is excellent.
see Naim ND5 XS 2 | Network Music Streamer | Naim Audio says only
“Internet Radio Formats : Windows Media-formatted content, MP3, ACC, OGG Vorbis streams and MMS”
The second gen Naim streamers play web radio FLAC up to 192/24 in the hidef radio folder on the Naim app… just been listening… very good it is too… well on NDX2, but uses the same StreamUnlimited network application module.
The current Naim website was botched together in a random fashion by an overseas website provider using information copied from the aging and infrequently maintained former website. The current streamers have had a great deal of development of internet radio streams which have really upped the game in terms of good sounding stations. The new website will probably promote that fact in about 10 years time.
Very good, and accurate unfortunately.
Thanks for replying.
What about SQ and use (app, online stability…)?
What is unfortunate?
