Chord Dave with NAP 300 at Bristol S&V

Posted by: Richieroo on 28 February 2017

Hi all attended show... had a listen to Concept 500 speakers driven by DAVE driving NAP300 direct....was very disappointed speakers sounded slow with slightly disjointed and one note bass. I really thought this may sound special....

I wouldn't get too worried - it's a show so not the best place to hear things at their best. Slightly strange combination of kit though.

Thinking about it ..... I wonder if the Nap300 was new and not run in ..... it would explain allot. Certainly the guy demoing was not that familiar with it ..... he said it was loaned at short notice.....

Was this the room at the far end of the corridor by the lifts?

There was a spendor room where, on Friday, I decided the bass was stuck in traffic on the m4 and might arrive by Saturday...

I think that the rumbling bass (next door to Concept 500) from the new Arcam home cinema amp may have had a lot to do with it, this reminded me of the noughties
