Statement trickle down to integrated amps?

Posted by: Disposable hero on 19 October 2015

Usually when there is a flagship super-product there is also accompanying talk of a 'trickle down effect' of its technology to the remaining range. 

If this were to happen, realistically what could this mean for Naim integrated amps of the future and at what point in time?

probably dr on the internal ps. I think that there somewhere is a quote about a feature or solution in the muso that is influenced by statement technology.

The SuperNait 2 already has DR technology......

The NA009 transistors developed for Statement are now used in the 250DR.

Don't see how they could put 009 transistors in a Supernait without going way over usual rrp. Does the Supernait 2 even have 007 transistors ? I read they put in something different from the Supernait 1.

We have seen the power supplies and then the power amps upgraded recently I think it is safe to say that 2016 will see a new range of preamps to replace the ageing existing preamps.

 

expect to see an announcement in January , next year will be an expensive one!

Let's hope elements of the transformer mounting design trickle down so there's better decoupling of noise from the case resulting in fewer instances of intrusive transformer hum

Naim did not use the NA 009 transistors in the new 200 DR.

 

in low current situations, this is not apparently needed
