Goodbye Naim and the good people of the forum

Posted by: Justin9960 on 27 June 2015

Just wanted to thank and say goodbye to some decent people on this forum, as today I bought a B&O Moment to connect to my B&O 8000 active speakers. This is not one of those "I've found something better than Naim" threads, but a sincere thanks to those who I have respected on this forum.

 

Tonight was confirmation that I have done the right thing, as my wife and I passed the controller back and forth typing in various songs into Deezer, and had a good trip down memory lane. The sound quality was irrelevant as it was simply a case of having a laugh, even enjoying a bit of 5 Star!! Good luck to all, and I hope you continue your music.

 

Many thanks for the journey.

I have no wish to appear like an outmoded sci-fi catastrophist, rather simply to alert on the risk of being slowly, gently, technologically led to passivity.

I don't advise a haircut, man. All hairdressers are in the employment of the government. Hairs are your aerials. They pick up signals from the cosmos, and transmit them directly into the brain. This is the reason bald-headed men are uptight.

Justin!

 

Wow, you've been one of my favorite posters in the Naim forum!  Found your comments to be very interesting... and identified with you as a Qute owner

 

Congrats on the B&O... the aesthetics are just as important to me as the sound (I love the simplicity of the Qute on my table for example)...

 

Hope to still see your posts from time to time!
