Aro cable
Posted by: CURARE on 22 June 2016
The Aro cable the one that goes from the tonearm to preamp, do any of you know if Naim still have some of this or any dealer in UK?
The obvious answer might be to suggest you contact Naim and ask them, otherwise, have a ring around some dealers. Form rules would prevent them from answering you here.
When I last checked a couple of years ago (post-discontinuation by quite a bit) they could still be ordered.
OK thanks, I have asked since it seams very difficult to find it. But as you said if my asking could invite to break the forum rules then let's forget it.
I have one complete Aro and two Aro tops and unfortunately I don't have the original cable and would like to have at least one complete like mama Naim did.
Curare: you should e-mail Naim directly (or, if you're in the USA, you can contact AV Options).
Naim made me an Aro cable about 5 months ago. I'm no cable junkie, but it was obviously very well-made indeed!
Good luck,
Joe

That's interesting as when I enquired in January 2016 I was told the cable was no longer made due to lack of parts.

I have contacted Naim and they replied to me today that the cable is not longer available...
So I have to try somehow to get one, but I have never seen one in the second-hand market. Only complete Aro and they don't come often.
I will just keep looking and looking then.
There is some one here that has enough experience with this cable and compared to others? For example if someone compared to the VDH D501 silver or others.
I have written to Naim and they answered today they don't have this cable anymore...
Curare, they do come up for sale secondhand from time to time - in fact, a quick search shows at least one available right now (forum rules prevent me from saying where) - so I think you need to look a bit harder.
I may well now close this thread as it's verging on tipping over the knife edge of the forum rules. If you wish to ask re performance of the Aro cable compared to others then please open a new thread. Anyway, good luck in your search.
