Nait 3 innards
Posted by: plynnplynn on 01 August 2002
I want to get inside my old Nait 3 to extract the phono boards but it would appear that I have to unscrew a 'safety earth screw' and take out 4 'plastic button rivets' first from the base plate. Is this correct? I suppose the whole innards then slips out from the case. The only other option seems to be the 4 small posidrive screws which hold the front on to the base plate. I suspect that these need not be taken out.
Can anyone help so that I do this in the most efficient way possible?
I want to do this because I am lead to believe that the phone boards of a Nait 3 are the same as for a Nac82. Am I correct in this assumption?

I have never been a gambler Mick and so the proposed route to success in relation to the Grand National does not really interest me.

It's about wanting to pound the sh*t out of a little sissy boy like Mr. Toy who comes to your house for a nice dinner and a listen, but then goes on to post 15 chapters of ungrateful drivel on the fora describing precisely what he didn't like about your hi-fi.
Hmmm.
I actually liked the sounds of the guys' systems I heard before and after dinner, and I said as much both before, during, after and very much after dinner.
I went home expecting my own humble system to sound like a bag of shite, really I did.
Unfortunately for me, it didn't, and the rest is history.
I then made a personal choice for the future of my own system without actually dissing the performance of my hosts' systems.
At residence #1 we actually spent much of the time listening to cobbled bits of both my system and that of my host's.
We even compared our respective racks, and agreed at that time to agree to disagree on how music should sound.
At residence #2, I was blown away by the vinyl reproduction even to this day.
At residence #3, I was impressed also, and even posted to that effect from my host's pc with him stood next to me.
Then I got home and couldn't face listening to my own system lest it sound so awful. I finally plucked up the courage and decided that it did a few things of its own that I liked very much.
The only system I stooped so low as to damn it with faint praise was that of Stallion. I told him what I thought at the time, and he gave his express consent for me to publish my findings here on the condition that I did so constructively.
I must add that during a more recent visit to his place prior to our visiting JW together with our respective partners, I was able to conclude that the Stallion system was sounding much better than on my previous visit.
To my tastes, JW's system was even better than Stallion's, although my g/f expressed a preference for Stallion's brand of music reproduction over JW's.
Despite this disagreement, my g/f and I are still together.
Stallion and I even joked later about how rude I must have been not to have given his system a truly glowing report when I heard it the first time, especially as the dinner he had served me was so sooo divine...
Ditto the wine. 
(Dinner at the other places I visited was also excellent, as it was also at TC's gaff when I visited him in Feb of this year. As for TC's alleged lack of hospitality that Vuk obviously cites, it is difficult to get a meal right and in a fit state to eat when your guest turns up several hours late without so much of an advanced warning of his tardiness of arrival.
As an aside, I managed to do my place in the Midlands to Edinburgh in four hours and ten minutes without detours and distractions..., and I took the well-dodgy road through Biggar instead of using the fastest route of the M74 to the south of Glasgow and M8 into Edinburgh.)
Stallion admires such candour and honesty, Vuk obviously doesn't.

Steve.

I must now side firmly with Mick Parry about an extended stay in Germany. You'll definitely feel far more at home there than in your homeland. Apologies to Thomas K. (for a multitude of reasons).
I prefer France as I speak the lingo, and I have always got on quite well there.
Our trip to Germany will take a long meander through France as the cheapest ferry option kindly forces us to do this.

P.S. How can you humiliate the clan this way on the day we made public your promotion to Serie A?
I hadn't realised the elevation of my status, so in an attempt to redeem myself and promote the behaviour becoming of such dizzy heights, I would like to support the notion that any unauthorized goat modification should be deeply frowned upon, and reported at every incidence, irrespective of the addictive, guilty pleasures it may bring the participant.
