MinimServer installed on PC to enable Naim streamer to access FLAC files on NAS

Hi Simon

Thanks for your response.

I will definitely replace my NAS sometime soon- the laptop installation is just an experiment as i learn more about UPnP servers etc, and check that there is something out there that is better than Twonky. I was hoping to be able to transport the HDDs from my current NAS (as you suggest), but I might need to ask a few more questions about that (in a separate forum post).

In light of your comments about the path of the signal when using Mimim as I have described, I will experiment with sound quality comparisons. However, I am well aware that i am already at the point of hugely diminishing returns in respect of ekeing out further improvements, so there's a good chance I might be kidding myself if I think I can hear a difference. But I guess that's all part of the fun of being a hi-fi nerd!

Thanks again. Great forum, great software.

Matt
