New AV3?
Posted by: GeraldUK on 12 April 2009
Sorry but i may be a ranting slightly after a glass (or 2) of wine in front of a bluray dvd. We have have quite a lot of choice of HD Av/ DVD receivers now and given i am a hardy Naim junkie all i want is some HD decoded sound tracks and a bluray player from the green goddess - am i asking too much ? I already own a pioneer bluray player and really want to stick to naim given my hifi (is there any other ?) Hook a brother up !
Cheers Neill.
Yes, I had picked up murmurings of that...Although, to be honest, show me a AVR release these days that isn't buggy or requires firmware updates soon after release....Even BDPs seem to be the same. It's as if Joe Public is doing the guinea pig work for the manufacturers I sometimes think.....!
Besides, and lets not forget, could it be any worse a situation than any Naim device of late that has software in it...!?
The 888 seems the logical fit, though I'm not sure of the realistic time frame. I think WhatHiFi are getting hold of one soonish....There's a couple of guys on another AV forum seem to be going the same way, although they have raised questions how it's going to fit in with Naim amplification....??
