Naim will launch this summer the HDX which combines the performance of a Naim audiophile CD player with the convenience of a good MP3 player. The HDX is a stand-alone Hard Disk player/CD player. It can be connected to any wired network, to play or stream digital music (WAV/MP3/AAC/FLAC/WMA) from shared drives on the network, and it can grab data and cover art from Internet.

Also the HDX has the ability to rip CDS at full WAV format 16-Bit 44.1kHz. The data is copied to one of the internal 400GB drives and every night that drive backs up automatically to the second internal 400GB drive.
