Fellow Naimees in South London

Posted by: Sundance on 27 July 2006

Where are you?

I've been a Naimee for many years now but apart from this forum, I don't have anyone to enjoy the wonderful world of Naim with Frown

What I mean is, none of my friends or family own a Naim system and although they're often impressed when they listen to mine, it's not quite the same conversation if you knonw what I mean. What I would really love is to meet Naim-owning friends that live in South London so that we can really talk hifi and music (of course).

I live near Lewisham.
Cheers.

Sundance,
beware - you are on a path that is eventually going to cost you a small furtune in new CDs/LPs! Trust me!

Sundance,

If I'd seen your opening post maybe...oooh...ten years ago, you'd have been in luck.

You see I lived in Lewisham ten years ago.

For two months.

Never again.

In it's defence I will say that it has changed quite a lot and I know as I've lived in South London all my life.

I actually live in Brockley (near Lewisham) and mainly frequent Blackheath - much nicer!

BTW - Nice system Jon - wish you were round corner so I could come and listen - I'm just on verge of buying 252/SC2 and considering whether to slip a 200 in there or head straight for the 250-2, so that the next step can be the XPS2 on my CDX2.

Thanks Sundance, though if you were looking at my profile I have to confess it's slightly out of date - the Spendors have gone and have been replaced by a pair of Neat Motive 2s, which I think are fantastic.

Funny you should mention Blackheath - the only nice aspect of living in Lewisham was that it was in fact on the Blackheath side, and yes I agree it's a very nice part of London especially for walking through which I often did when I lived round there.

As it happens I work in Docklands at the moment (well, until three weeks from now) and if you're not far from Lewisham DLR I could always pop round for a quick listen and a chat if it's convenient - I am making a habit of visiting various forum members and listening to their systems Smile

I would love that Jon - unfortunately I've sold my 72/140 combo in preparation for my new purchase - so alas, I have nothing for you to listen to.... Roll Eyes Perhaps I should move to Herts? Winker

Sundance,
Billy Vee must be responsible for many naimies in our area. I'm just round the corner from you. My system shares some items with yours: cdx2, 202, fc2, 140, chord rumour, B&W 805s, standard interconnects. It rocks just fine.

No - well, not this time anyway Winker

It has not been possible to send PMs on the Naim forum for some time. Best bet is to post an email address or use another forum (if you're both members of course) to send and receive PMs.
