chrome - olive - black

I propose a motion that we include an intermediate 'non-chromolive' category for those transitional models such as the early NAIT2 with its non-chrome bumpered sleeve and its black face.

That would make it... chrome - nonchromolive - olive - black.

Would anyone care to second the motion?

Craig

In my view this name is good but too complicated. Let's think about a shorter name... Are there many models with that non-chromolive design?

- Jun

how about this:

chrome - nonchromolive - nonblackolive and nonoliveblack

Sounds pretty good. Perhaps the first 'chrome' needs a little non-handle yet.

Nonremotechrome perhaps?

how about

chrome - nonchromeolive - nonblackolive and Krell?

David

The Krell bit at the end is good.

The non what ever it was I'm not so sure off ...

For purposes of clarity for relatively new Naim owner (1997 or 8) photos would be helpful. Can anyone help?
Terry

For me it's new, classic (olive), old (chrome bumper).

I concur with Eric's proposal.

I agree,

new - olive - chrome

is way too confusing.

I've seen pics of older equipment but I just don't understand olive. They all look like black boxes except for those with the chrome bumpers. I happen to prefer series 5.

you mean: new (or: black).

This is getting way too confusing to me. Is the Nait 2 an olive? I like that look.

I know a young guy who 's interested and think he can afford something like a 62/72, don't know about power supply, 140? he like european sports cars so I've related that the old naim is like that. However, now he has to buy a new reliable car so doubt he's going to buy a stereo.

Remember, also, that the "nonchromeolive" designation really refers to boxes with two different flavours of green: brownish green and olive proper (from '97 onwards?). We therefore need to introduce "nonchromeremotelyolive". (Or was it "nonblackremotelyolive"?)

My vote goes for "Chrome - Olive - Black"

You and Naim both, I don't think any two of my eight fascias are the same shade. Range from brown to green.

...just like olives: range from brown to green!

I fully concur with the previous concurence...that is , myself being the concuree and he being the concurer...not to be confused with the "conquerer" or as it has been previously stated "Krell,the Conquerer"...
all I need is for somebody to second the "motion" and it shall be carried!!
ALL IN FAVOUR, SAY AYE!!
