2. Installing and Connecting

2.3 Speaker Outputs

A set of stereo speaker connection sockets is provided 
on your Uniti Series product rear panel. Custom Naim 
Audio loudspeaker connectors are supplied to make the 
connection, and in order to comply with current European 
safety regulations these should always be used. Naim Audio 
speaker cable will provide the best results, however, a range 
of speaker cable types may be used without risk. Contact 
your local Naim retailer for further advice. Use equal lengths 
of speaker cable for each channel.

Ensure when connecting speakers that they are “in phase”. 
That is, the positive and negative connection orientation at 
both the speaker and amplifier ends of the cable is the same 
for both channels.

2.4 Headphone Output

Uniti Series products are fitted on their front panels with a 
stereo headphone socket. Insertion of a headphone plug will 
mute the speaker outputs.

Note: Uniti Series products control and store volume 
settings separately for headphones and speakers.

2.5 DAB/FM Aerial Connection

The Uniti Series DAB/FM tuner module requires a strong, 
interference-free signal to enable high quality FM and 
DAB reproduction. The rear panel DAB/FM Aerial socket 
should be connected, via 75 ohm low-loss coaxial cable, to a 
suitable aerial. The aerial should be mounted clear of large 
obstructions and as high as possible; ideally on a roof.

Note: Your local retailer should be able to offer advice on 
a suitable aerial and aerial installer.

2.6 Signal Ground Switch

Your Uniti Series product is fitted on its rear panel with a 
Signal Ground switch offering two positions:  Chassis or 
Floating. Select the Chassis position unless your Uniti Series 
product is connected in a hi-fi system incorporating another 
earthed source component, or mains “hum” is audible 
through the loudspeakers. Contact your retailer, distributor 
or Naim for advice if necessary.

Note: “Connected” in the context above means an 
analogue audio signal cable that includes an earth 
connection.

Note: All Naim CD players are earthed so the Signal 
Ground switch should be set to floating if one is 
connected in the system.

No damage will be done if the wrong Signal Ground position 
is chosen, however the system sound quality may be 
compromised.

Note: Uniti Series analogue input and output negative 
connections for each channel are common. The mains 
earth (ground) should always be connected regardless of 
what other equipment is used. The mains earth primarily 
grounds the case and the electrostatic screen within the 
transformer, and is only connected to the signal negative 
if the Signal Ground switch is set to Chassis. In order to 
avoid hum loops, the signal negative of the whole system 
should be connected to the mains earth in one place only.

2.7 USB Interface

Uniti Series products are fitted with a front panel USB 
interface intended for the connection of iOS devices and 
USB memory sticks carrying audio files. The USB interface 
should not be used for any other purpose.

Note: Most UMS (Universal Mass Storage) USB memory 
sticks are compatible with the Uniti Series USB audio 
interfaces. Other UMS devices might include portable 
digital music players, smart-phones, tablet computers 
and memory card readers. Non-UMS USB devices, such 
as older MP3 players, may be connected to a Uniti Series 
product analogue audio input from their headphone 
sockets. See Section 8 for more information.

Depending on the setup options chosen (see Section 4.3.7), 
iOS device batteries will be charged when connected to the 
USB interface.

2.8 Network Connections

2.8.1 Wired Network Connection

Uniti Series products are fitted on their rear panels with a 
standard RJ45 Ethernet socket. This socket enables them 
to join home networks via a network router to access 
internet radio data streams, to play audio files stored on 
UPnP™ servers, to play Spotify

®

 streams, and to play from 

or broadcast to other Uniti Series products on the same 
network.

Note: Ethernet-over-mains hardware may be used and 
provides a simple and convenient method of wired home 
network connection. However, depending on mains wiring 
factors specific to each home environment, the presence 
of network data on the mains supply may compromise 
overall system sound quality. If any sound quality 
compromise is found to be unacceptable, dedicated 
network cabling should be installed as the preferred 
option, or alternatively wireless networking can be 
employed.
