Posted by: m0omo0 on 10 April 2008

Many fine words from forum members disseminated among the posts, why not collecting them ?

A nice start:

"The advent of CD means the death of Vinyl."
Many persons in the 1980s & '90s.

"The advent of Servers/Downloads means the death of CD."
Many persons now.

I like this one in the context of a discussion about the new Naim packing box that had just been 'upgraded'...

quote:
Apparently this is only an interim box.

I hear through the grapevine that there is a box design currently going through R&D that will be a little larger than the present design, will have a nice, decorative bow to finish off and will play a little tune when you open it.

It is said that it will major on Space, Ribbon and Chiming!

I would like to point out - if there is no god - this would not mean that Naim would follow Linn.
