The Naim Uniti Core is a compact yet powerful dedicated music server designed as the hub for your digital music collection. It allows you to rip your entire CD collection to bit-perfect copies, store up to 100,000 tracks internally, serve files to Uniti all-in-one players or other Naim streamers, and create backups of your music. It can also function as a standalone digital source when connected to a digital-to-analogue converter or amplifier with digital inputs, controlled via the Naim app. Every element—from the customized operating system and enhanced ripping engine to the linear power supply and low-vibration aluminum casework—has been engineered for consistent, reliable performance and highest sound quality. The device features advanced Ethernet technology to handle multiple simultaneous streams without performance degradation. The Uniti Core has been discontinued by Naim.
