Introducing new music-streaming options with TIDAL Connect

We are delighted to introduce yet more listening options for our award-winning Mu-so 2nd Generation family of wireless speakers, with a free software update enabling TIDAL Connect.

TIDAL Connect allows you to explore all the rich features of the TIDAL App, and stream your choices in superb quality direct to your Naim speaker. You can continue to enjoy core TIDAL streaming functionality via the Naim App, if you prefer.

The Firmware 4.3 update for Mu-so 2nd Generation, Mu-so Qb 2nd Generation, Mu-so Wood Edition and Mu-so for Bentley Special Edition will be released on 9th December, when it will be quick and easy to install via the Naim App. As this is a major update, we recommend you power-cycle your Mu-so after the update is complete. Wait for the Status LED light on your Mu-so to return to standard white, then unplug your Mu-so from power for 30 seconds, before reconnecting.

It follows an earlier update for Naim Uniti players and dedicated streamers; the brand's entire current music-stream range now supports TIDAL Connect. Further free functionality upgrades are planned, giving users even more ways to enjoy their system.

TIDAL Connect is available to all subscribers to the streaming service; a 90-day free trial is available for new users when they buy any of the current Naim streaming family.

Firmware 4.3 Release Notes:

New:

  • Tidal Connect support
  • Play-queue content (Server, TIDAL & Qobuz inputs) can be resumed after exit from standby by pressing the play button

Improved:

  • TIDAL login authorisation update
  •  Updated Chromecast, AirPlay and Roon implementation
  • FLAC lossless radio support

Fixed:

  • Internet radio stations which use HTTPS would fail to play

Other fixes and improvements. At Naim Audio we are continually working to improve the usability of Mu-so and Mu-so Qb. Ensure you stay up to date to get the best experience.
