Hi-Fi Corner

Hi all...You might recall that recently I added a Prefix K to my LP12 to replace the K boards in my 52. However, from the start the Prefix wasn't working properly in the context of my system - there was no particular improvement in the sound over the...

hi have sent you a private mail for some help.thanks

Currently running a Micromega Duo 3.1 / Duo Pro (bitstream) DAC through 102 / 180 / Flatcap into PMC FB1's (well I like them!)I've not really listened to the Micromega for ages, but I'm trying to build up the CD side of my system (without spending a...

Hi AllEver since I began on the road of Hi-Fi,I've always wanted an LP12 with Naim amplification and a Koetsu cartridge.Now I'm going to replace my Tiktok,10x4 but I'm unsure as to what to replace it with to best compliment a Koetsu any comments...

Hi,Ive been having a problem with my CDI recently where the CD has trouble skipping to later tracks. I read somewhere else in this forum that putting a small piece of paper between the CD and the puck, made the puck grip the CD better.Since trying...

Hi all,First time poster here.I'm currently auditioning a Nait 5i along with a pair of Spendor S5e speakers. This combination has almost left me speechless. I was sold on this combination until I started browsing around here and discovered that the...

I bought a Michell Focus One.I mailed them for a belt drive, oil and manual (the TT isn't in production since 1982) and they will send me all of it. The price is ok too - 18 pound including posting.Arye

Can anyone give me an idea of what to expect if a 2nd Hi-cap is used with my 282 or should I get a Super-cap for the 282 or is this going along the 'mullet' route?

I always assumed that my speakers (Epos ES12's) were meant to be spiked and firmly coupled to the floor... especially on carpet. It never even crossed my mind to question this assumption. However... last night, during a flurry of tweaking, I decided...

This mail from Doug Graham(Administartor) was quietly slipped in on this thread: http://forums.naim-audio.com/e...=48019385&m=33510019 BUT I think it bears further publication: here is the text: quote: We are currentLy working on a Stageline solution for use with Nait 5i. All Naim preamps (current) have a socket that can supply a Stageline or Prefix with voltage whilst taking back signal. With the 5i you don't get this feature, so, we are testing a Stageline with an AC adaptor (various) in...

After my visit to Woody's place (see Arriva) I have been feeling a little unsatisfied with my system, specifically at the top end.Anyway I was sitting there last night listening to Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Californication and contemplating a 202, 200...

Hello, I am new to this forum, and actually I am new to hi-end audio world as well. So please bear with me if what I am saying doesn't make any sense. I have decided to get ELAC 310 JET speakers (4 ohm, 86db), and right now I am looking for an...

Hello everybody at the forum.I recently (last 2 months) got a pair of Magnepan's MG-1.6. I've begun to drive them with my current amp: a Musical Fidelity A3.2 integrated. Predictably, I'm finding the A3.2 a bit wanting.I'm now looking for an amp...

the quoted sensitivity of the new Arriva seems low at 88dB...can a nait5 (not i) deliver sufficient "juice" to drive them satisfactorily?-- woody

I LOVE the sound of my Naim system, but I HATE the space that it takes up in my living room. Why can't Naim produce a quality high end integrated amp, instead of pre, power AND power supplie? So that I only have to buy 2 components, CD-player and amp....

i recently upgraded from a 42.5 to a 72 (both powered by a dual railed SNAPs). there was never a problem with the 42.5, but i had an itch and wanted to scratch it (nothing to do with problems downstairs, you understand).as you all know, the 42.5 is a...

Hi, Does anyone own a Hutter slimline unit and even better does anyone out there have a picture of the slimline unit. I have checked on the website and none seems to exist.Many thanks,Rod

I recently purchased a Tivoli Radio Model 1. When I use it in conjunction with my CD player it distorts badly if I listen to anything with a rather dense texture - such as BB King, Steve Earle, etc - at any volume. It sound very much like a blown...

Hi there,Well, unfortunately where my Naim kit is, there are no mains sockets and I need to use an extension lead to get power to the location at present. I don't intend to stay where I am for too long, so am not going to put in seperate spur /...

Up until yesterday, I've been using a regular free-in-the-box antenna (I believe it's just a strip of 300-ohm cable), and it's basically worked fine. Being only a few miles from the CN Tower in Toronto, the signals tend to be very strong, so not much...

folks,just wanted to share with you that I have been successfully infected with the upgraditis bacillus. Starting with Naim in last December - with cdx2, 112 and 150, I've added a hicap with great success in Feb/March, and now (after my dealer was...
