Am I dreaming.. or was there really an ND555 Roadshow event ?
Posted by: rjstaines on 05 June 2018
I don't take a lot of notice of Facebook, but a few hours ago I got a notification that Event 'ND555 Roadshow...' was deleted. And 'deleted' it certainly is, I can't access the original posting to discover what it was I'm now no longer missing 
There just aren't any clues remaining.
Nor is there any mention of roadshows on the main Naim site or the forum (are there?).
Nope... I must have been dreaming. Has anyone else had the same dream?

Hi FT - and its Alastair as well

ND555 is expected by end of month or early July. They have not discounted the possibility of scheduling in a roadshow but if it happens, it will be after they have their demo unit, and probably after it has hit a number of lounges in the surrounding area. So the roadshow will likely come to me.
They know who to call. I expect the van will be racking up some big miles in July.
Hopefully mine will be one such lounge, Harry.

Basically, it needs to be heard. Since quite a few NDS and CD 555 owners already have 2 x 555 PS, I suspect this knowledge will be out there quite soon.
FootTapper, it was Jason doing the dem, not Doug
The question from the floor was not from me...,but was about the ND555 with 2x555ps. Not about the ND555, just reporting what I thought about heard.

If you are one of Andrew's customers, I'm sure your lounge will be hit by the ND555 soon.
There was also some speculative chat around when the first retail units will be sent out. If I understand correctly, a lot of dealer demo machines are in the pipe before retail builds. I don't claim to know what the precise situation is.

Meant that to be, .....not about NDS with 2 x 555ps. Anyhow, the ND555 sounded mighty fine with 1 x555 ps and a bit of Pink Floyd.

Indeed, Harry, although I suspect it will most likely be Iain who comes to demo the unit.
