272 and xps

Posted by: Sounsfaber on 12 November 2015

Hi all, just a quick question, is it ok to use an Olive Xps on the 272? Or will it over heat.
Thanks

I'd say no, but check with Naim to be doubly sure.

I'd say no too. But check this out my olives a 193... Crazy eh. 2003 has the SuperCap transformer though. After talking to Naim sometime ago we came to the conclusion it was a request build. So it's olive spec. When I first realised the serial number I got rather excited.....

Thanks for that guys. My buddy just picked up a 300, SL2's so I was thinking to xps his 272 and a few beers. I'll xps his Cdx2 then, beers will be staying
