New to Naim. Need Blu Ray to Nait5 help.
Posted by: Ref on 02 November 2016
Hello all. I recently purchased a used Nait5 system that consists of the pieces below.
Naim Nait5
Naim NAP200
Naim Ariva speakers w/cables
Naim Flatcap2
Naim Stageline Phono N
Naim Nat05 Tuner
Rega P3 w/Elys 1 cartridge
Rega Ear headphone amp
I'll try and keep this short and concise...
I had to order a 4pin-to-5pin to send signal from the Stageline to the Nait5. It was missing when I bought the system. In the meantime I thought I'd set up the Nait5 with the Stageline/Rega, my Arcam BDP and speakers. I used the RCA-to-4pin cable that was included to connect my Arcam BDP to the Nait5 via Aux 2 input. I'm assuming this cable was used by the previous owner to send signal to the Headphone amp. Everything was working fine.
My 4/5pin cable from Flashback Sales arrived a few days ago. Now I could connect the Stageline to the Flatcap2 and send signal to the Nait5. Went home and inserted the NAP200 and Flatcap2. Here is where I hit a snag. When I plugged in the Stageline I started to hear both Aux1 and 2 at the same time. I didn't want to damage anything so I unplugged the BDP right away and enjoyed some vinyl.
What am I doing wrong? Why can't I hear the Arcam BDP via the CD or Tuner input? I get the feeling I connected something wrong or maybe one of the plugs should be in place? The BDP was coming through fine when it was plugged into the AUX2 before.
A little confused. Again, I'm new to Naim. Appreciate the help.
