I beg to differ on that .... things have moved on .... but as you stated this is only my opinion. .. but do agree kan's are fantastic

Having had a few PMC's here, 23/24/Fact8, i beg to differ also. Yes things have moved on..... Duller, more hifi, more expensive, more style over substance, less music.

Interesting thread. My current set up consists of a 272/XPS-DR/200-DR and Kudos Super 10s. In the next week or so, I might be in a positon to home demo a two year old NAP300. I've never heard a 300 but would expect it will put a permanent grin on my face and will bring out more of everything I like about this Naim/Kudos marriage.

Just curious to hear from any forum members if you think my current speakers are up to the task ? Has anyone listened to these bookshelves with a 300 ? I have no intention of changing sources or going to a larger speaker right now. I sit about 10' away and there is another 4' behind me (open staircase). 

As the Kudos S10 was developed on the end of a NAP300, the pairing should be absolutely delightful.

Those Kudos S10 speakers, on appropriate stands, should be more than capable to support your electronics up to the level of a NAC552 pre-amp, so no worries there for you.

Best regards, FT

I've heard them on the back of a 500.  Excellent.

Thanks for the positive replies. Yes, using the Kudos stands, have them filled with sand (about 2/3 way up). If I do get the opportunity to home demo the NAP300, I'll report back.
