Powerline etc.

Current system is a NAC N272 paired with my ancient but trusty NAP110. Speakers are Acoustic Energy AE300.

I see a NAP250DR in my near future, just as soon as I've prepared mentally for the wallet impact (30%+ import taxes here in Thailand).

I'd also like to upgrade AC cables at some point. Thailand has its own plug system (three circular pins, 220V), but I'm guessing Naim have no plans to offer Powerlines in this configuration. So assuming I go with a Powerline or two (will demo when I'm back in the UK in July), I'll either have to change my wall outlet to UK spec or go with some sort of universal outlet option.

Just wondered if anyone had any experience / ideas.

I’m using a UK type Wireworld Metrix power distribution with Naim Powerline lite cords from Naim equipments. The Wireworld is connected to typical Thailand receptacle via a normal power cord though. I’ve checked the line and neutral phases, they are correct.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, the Wireworld Matrix is an option.

Just wondering if Naim boxes with Powerlines / Lites plugged directly into good quality UK-spec wall outlets is typically a preferred option?
