Up-grade paths from 82 & HC ?

Posted by: uem on 28 October 2002

Hi everyone

Until the arrival of the new NAIM line, there was virtually just one way to up-grade from an 82 with HC: get the 52! - of course, you could consider, as an intermediate step, to keep the 82, by replacing the HC with an SC.

Now, with the 282 being around, I wonder, whether this could be considered an alternative. Are their any comparisons available between “new” and “old” ? (eg: previous threads)
Also what are the cost options ? (frankly, my immediate thought is a S/H 52 & SC)

Thanks for suggestions

Firstly I would change the Hi-cap to the Supercap. This will see a good improvement in your current system.

Then its a question of 282 versus 52. Thats when its time to book a demmonstration with your dealer and decide for yourself.

As for the costs have a look at loot.com there will be plenty of second hand Supercaps and 52's comming to the market as people upgrade to the new gear.
