In the Naim app, under Settings / Streaming Services / Spotify there is a ‘Gain Normalization’ option. I have tried On and Off, but I can’t seem to notice the difference. When using playlists (Spotify Connect Lossless), I regularly have to adjust the volume.
Anyone noticed any difference? I wonder if this option actually work…
@Stevesky Do you happen to know what the ‘Gain Normalization‘ option does and if it actually works? I can’t seem to notice any difference.
Hi @whatu1tme2b
In theory it should work, but I’m out on a business trip so can’t check it at the moment.
What it should do is use the Spotify loudness rating of each track and change the gain so all tracks hit the same target perceived volume level.
Will try it out later this week and let you know.

Did you have a chance to check it? I still have to reach for the remote regularly when playing playlists. The normalization does not seem to work.
Hi @whatu1tme2b
Thanks for the nudge, totally forgot about this little task.
have tried it out and it seems quite intermitent if it will do anything. A brief bit of debugging and indicates app is ok, but the api glueware in the product that wires into the streamer nSDK api has issues on setting the config reliably.
I’ll raise a Jira to the team on this one.

Thanks a lot for checking it @Stevesky . Much appreciated.
