Posted by: Klout10 on 09 June 2011

"May June if all goes well" was the last statement I've heard...

 

Any news yet??

Regards,

Michel

The clock is ticking Mike. A good day beckons soon. In the mean time I'm just going to have to slum it with all this wonderful music in detailed and life like presentation that until recently I didn't think was possible. Somehow I will find the will to go on.

 

PS should you disconnect the 555PS and slot a nDAC in the middle you will be surprised. Possibly  pleasantly - it's in the ear of the beholder. But you'll hear something different.

Would have been great if it could have arrived before the proms.

Is there any updated timescale on this...IIRC early June was being talked about at one stage?

I'm growing increasingly impatient ...

Perhaps–but you do want it to work, yes?

Yeah, you're right ...

Sound quality, particularly with the DAC, is very good and the fact it is a simple solution that single handedly rips, stores, controls and plays all my music, including downloaded computer music if I want to, is absolutely ideal for me. 

 

Nothing else I know of does all this and provides this sound quality.  The NDX may sound a little better

 

One Naim combination I find obvious for the same price, if you can live without the touch screen, is  ns01 plus ndac. I have not compared since I would not get any benefits from the HDX. I do not live in a house where I need multiroom support, and the touch screen makes no difference for a blind user! the NDAC with the SU upgrade does change the ns01 from a nonupgradable player to a player with all the upgrades you can think of, NDAC, and spsx or 555 on the NDAC.  In another thread on the hifi forum a user states that the 555 ito his ears makes the most positive difference over the spsx. So with ns01 into NDAC, with spsx a fantastic setup can be even better when funds allow.

Hi Paul, As a new Ns01 user I really look forward to giving my tuner away to one of my friends in the near future! It  will depend  on the userinterface on the dTC and the Apple App. Currently I use the DTC with very few issues concerning my screen reader and the use of the DTC. However unlikely it seems that you are  adding functions that cannot be controlled by the keyboard, I would really like to participate in this beta. Since you code both DTC and the App at HQ, things can be changed in subsequent upgrades, but it is a lot easier to make sure new functions are accessable to screen reader users before the upgrades are  released.
