XMAS WISH LIST

Posted by: Cbr600 on 19 September 2012

I know it's early, but if you could ask Naim to produce anything for Xmas what would you be asking Santa for. This would then give Naim some good thinking time on the run up to Xmas.

Maybe a particular kit upgrade, or a new product that they are missing.

The thread might even give the Naim boys a straw poll view of what people are thinking

 

Its a bit of light hearted fun only

That is called the Nait 5i-2! The pre-section is a perfect of example of less is more!

 

Okay the power side is limited unless you have an easy load from the speakers, but if you do, then "Bob's your uncle!" ESL 57s fit the bill in a medium to small room! In fact it ought to be enough to consider downsizing the house to get a suitable room ...

Just had a look. Very impressive. Unfortunately my wife cannot stitch to save her life. Will have to rely on naim making some promostuff maybe?

You know these days you can go to car dealers and build online specs for your new car, what trim you want, etc.

 

Wouldn't it be good if Naim offered this type of a service.

 

You spec what you need in your box, like a high grade Pre amp just to cope with HDX front end. No other sources. No tape monitoring needed, etc.

 

Then Naim would build your bespoke hifi, and get the best of what you want ( without buying circuit boards that will never be used, etc)

 

I know it's unlikely to happen, but would be a nice Xmas surprise if this service was available

I'd get a Nait 5i-2 built from parts with similar tolerances as a 552, and hare the transformer in a separate box!

Yes please.....one that makes a 552 'sound broken'...

Just decided to treat myself and ordered a 555ÐR and traded my existing 2009 unit.

Get a great deal from supplier, too good to resist.

How about Naim sending out some vouchers for free music to some of its loyal customers?
