11. Conclusion
Naim have addressed the major shortcomings of Music
Servers so far offered to the market, and in so doing
have created a totally new concept in convenient
playback of archived digital music.
Searching for material is often quicker than finding the
Album in a well organised music library, while the
profound level of information displayed by the Hard Disc
Player while playing music rivals the CD sleeve notes for
convenience and sheer user delight.
Multiple control interfaces make the most of the
metadata available according to the type of user and
application.
The benefits of the extended metadata and convenient
operation even extend to CD Albums which have not
been archived to Hard Disc: simply loading a CD in
Player mode brings up the extended metadata and cover
art on a variety of interfaces direct from the online
database.
Naim’s HDX is powered by the DigiFi™
platform; leading edge software
