Hi-Fi Corner

Hi Naimees,I am using a NAC 52 and a Supercap. For analog I use a stageline, wich is powered by the 24V outlet of the NAC 52. Does it make sense to take an extra Supercap for the stageline. What do you think?Best regards

Hi All,If like me you have been getting a lot of emails, often with attachments, purporting to be from large institutions, this information may help to illuminate matters and enhance our awareness.I did hesitate before posting this in Hi Fi Corner but...

I am looking to add a solid state integrated amp to my current system (Cary 300sei, ProAc Response 1sc and Arcam Alpha 8 cd player) so that I can have a "plug and play" option in addition to my beloved tubes. I auditioned the Nait 5i and I loved it. ...

And that's a problem ? Well YES, because I just can't seem to able to muster the prerequisite feelings of disgust, boredom, greed, lust or unhappiness necessary to tear me from the warm embrace of my "old" CDS2 and into the muscular arms of a shiny...

Current system:CDX2XPS2Active 250Roksan XerxesSBLGentlemenDo I go active NBL (i.e snaxo 3 - 6 and another 250) - result more bass and improves the Xerxes as well as the CD player or do I stick with what I have on the amp/speaker front and upgrade the...

Hello, I'm new here because I'm new to Naim. I demo'ed the CD5 and NAIT5 about 2 years ago and really liked it, but went in the tube direction at the time. But since then I've been looking for a way to fit Naim into a system. I finally did it by...

With all the recent talk of toddler-carnage I wondered about the logic of putting some of my kit in an enclosed rack. QAV cabinet looks good but I have noticed the Arca range which IMO may provide the solution.http://www.arcafurniture.net/Anyone have...

Just discovered that Dimexs will be introducing these two products at the Montreal "FSI" next week.I'm very anxious to see what the DVD5 will do. Based on the picture I saw, it looks identical to the CD5.Anyone has seen / heard the DVD5 yet?Anyway...

Hello All,I’d just like to thank Naim Audio and in particular Richard Dane for their outstanding response times in answering emails. I have twice recently enquired about the service histories of various units. The first email was answered in 1...

Has anyone got one lying about that I could borrow for a day and then return? I've more or less lost the left channel (a sort of crosstalk only signal) on my 32.5/110 and supect the very old grey snaic - in any case it seems the first thing to...

Hi,I have just bought an armageddon fpr my lp12 and fitted it tonight. I put it all back together and while the platter is turning fine i am getting no sound...The arm is an aro and I have tested the green, blue, white and red wires from the cartridge...

Hi folks.First I was going to buy one, then I wasn't, and now I possibly am once again. This Fraim demon, it is very persuasive. AFter letting one s/h Fraim escape, another has turned up with teh right number of shelves at a reasonable (not cheap but...

I bought one for about 65$. This is the first model, and is a great surprise. For the price, is a best buy for sure, but it really sounds very good. I gave a LP 12, Micromega stage 3 and 90/2 for a CDI and a 140, and now with the Thorens I'm sure that...

My Ittok is knackered, with patches of resistance to swing in the horizontal plane.As we know, Linn have had nothing to do with these for years now, so what options are there?I thought I might take it to bits, anyone done this? Any tips? Any spares?If...

When my Naim gear sounds good, it's really good but sometimes it just sounds like I'm listening through water. Last night I was listening to some music and in the space of about a minute the sound just suddenly cleared (like a veil being lifted)and I...

The title says it all.Does anyone have any suggestions, insights or thoughts?I must admit that on demo at the dealer there was substantial resonance at times which we put down to the quality of their room. Still, it sounded pretty bad and the "bad...

So, when you actually sin and get dust/fingerprints etc on em, what do you use to clean em with?any sonic benefits to specific makes/fluids etc (LOL)?cheers for any replies,andy c!

Forum newbie (my first post), so please be gentle..... I'm looking for opinions/reviews on a shortlist of products, hopefully soon to be my first Naim system.... At the mo I already have an a/v set up - B&W and Rotel, if you want a look check out - ( www.avforums.com/memberpages/31759/ ) But, as we have managed to secure a new house I'm looking to invest in a new set up. Oh, and the budget has definitely stretched from 2k!! Short list 1...this is the cheaper option - the one my fiancé...

I have learned a lesson. NEVER wall mount heavy equipment above pieces of expensive gear, especially without wall anchors. A few days ago a makeshift wallshelf that housed probably 70 lbs worth of an Armageddon and Epona SPS failed. Only one end was...
