Is there any chance of Naim Producing a Pre Amp with internal Phono Stage

Outrageous suggestion!  Who would want one of those?

Well, apart from most of us vinyl lovers ...

That's been and gone with the olive preamps hasn't it? Nac52, 82 etc. Still widely available SH - I've not managed to hear one yet though.

Nac12,22,32,32.5,42,42.5,62,72 etc etc...plenty to choose from

Bob - the answer is no and in fact the SQ is better with an external phono stage.  Both the Stageline and Superline are excellent but other brands offer equally good alternatives.

Bob, I think not. Why would you like an internal phostage given that its performance might be compromised by being internal?

There's about as much chance as an Aro 2

The dark underbelly of Julian's legacy was the company's reliance on internal phono boards, leading to the release of compromised products such as 52, 72 and Nait2.  Astute vinyl lovers prefer the sound quality and aesthetics of a Stageline/Flatcap.
