Problems with NDAC connection

Posted by: sjostrom on 17 July 2018

Hello friends!

I just bought a second hand Naim NDAC witch currently is connected to my Mac Mini via Toslink and to the Supernait 2 with rca-wires. As a first improvement I bought a second hand 180 5-pin to 5-pin naim interconnect. However, when installing it I only get sound from the left speaker. Unfortunately I don't have an additional din-cable to try it with and no Naim friends to borrow from. I have tried using the CD, Tuner and HDD inputs on the Supernait, but the problem persist.

Have I bought the correct spec cable and is there any way to test if it's the dacs din output that's causing it or if it's the cable?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Eric

Eric, if the RCA output is working OK then I would suspect that the interconnect may be faulty. Can you open up the plug and check the soldered connections?

Hi Richard,

then I'll open the plug and check it out! But at least I bought the correct cable
