Hi-Fi Corner
About a month ago I asked about the wisdom of putting a Supercap on a 72. The advice I got was generally in favour so I went ahead and the Supercap is now doing duty.During the course of that thread a question arose as to the wisdom of keeping an old...
MF marketing strikes again:-http://www.musicalfidelity.com/m1frameset.htmlI am concerned wheter this will work properly, as it does not appear to contain some anonymous NOS valve.David
LP12/cd3.5/flatcap/32.5/HiCap/160/kans soon to add snaps/headline Hello there, I'd be grateful if anyone could give their ideas for a choice of headphones. Sennheisers & Grados seem to get mentioned in these pages a bit, but which models? I'm looking for something 'in balance' with my system - ie nothing too flash, but a reasonable sound. As I would only be using them when someone else in the family has commandeered the tv remote they also need to be reasonably leakproof. Presumably this...

The builders have nearly completed the room I'm going to be using for a little AV setup so I need to get moving on deciding what system to install. I've set myself a budget of around £3000-£3500 and the system will only be used for AV as...
A mate of mine bought his CD2 (C'97) round to my place yesterday.V interesting the main difference was that there was barely any difference.Even after 3-4 hours both players were very similar. It was just thought the CD2 v slightly smoother overall,...

MuchachosI was wondering if anyone can explain what dffers between eg a 323 and a 523 board? I know some are MM and some MC, but what alters between the MC boards in particular as thats what I have.ThanksMikeOn the Yellow Brick Road and Happy
Does anyone know if you can power a Headline with a Flatcap? The Connection Guide for older products shows only connections to the NAPSC and Hi-Cap.
Hello,Been a CD-lubber for too long, and have just invested in a turntable upgrade. I have plenty of vinyl, which till now has been played one of my Technics 1210s with Ortofon Nightclub E DJ cartridges.New turntable is a Pro-Ject Perspective, with...
I am back for more of this advice, seems like you guys know your kit, so here we go. I am running a headline at present, from a older napsc but really need this for the 102. I expect funds will be tight after the Sonus speakers experience, so I may...
As I told you, my bank manager forced me to replace my 102/Hi/Napsc with 32.5/Hi, the 140 with 90/2 and the CDX with Micromega Stage 3. The "new" set was "unlistebale" and for several months I couldn't listen to the system more than 30 minuets a week....
I'm thinking of upgrading my CD3.5 to a CDX2What amount could I expect as a trade in or as a private sale for the 3.5 ( 3 years old )ThanksDave
After a bit of searching for new speakers (linn katan, atc smc7/12, rega ela) I've decided that I want Neat Petites. Or do I? I don't like the veneers much and am wondering if I would be better going all naim and looking at some intro2s.Any useful...
My current system is:Nait5/cd5i/stageline/rega planar 25/dynavector 10X4 mkII.I am in need of new speakers.Does anybody have experience with these speakers in a Naim system? I have heard great things, but dealers are hard to come by. I have a decent...

What is the best sounding phono stage from Naim?Could one of you kind experts list them in order of sound quality.I have a Linn Sondek with Troika cartridge in an Ekos arm. I have a 52 pre-amp with a standard Naim 'K' mc board.Regards Robert
Any suggestions or thoughts on providing music in other rooms? What are those out there doing? Obviously, I don't want to hinder the performance of the main system. I have thought of a couple options, but there may be others:1) Seperate system in...
Hi,This topic has probably been done before, but I was not able to find it by searching the forum. Could somebody please point me in the right direction or even better share your experiences on the subjet.Right now I have an Nait5, which I'm vary...
A thread to redress the balance of '282 - a disappointment'My new 252/SC has now been in service for a week and is an utter delight. Admittedly I've jumped from 202/HC (and am feeding it from a CDS3) but my music has never sounded so good.All the...
Can any of you Experienced Experts enlighten a relative newbie on a 52 issue:- how do the early 'supercapped' 52s (i.e. 1995 models such as the 107xxx I'm looking at) fare? - did the burndies become black at the same time 52/52PS became 52/SCap or is...
I have somehow managed after an extreme listening session to shut down one of three 250's.My active NBL's were on song whilst listening to some "antique" rock music (City Boy "It's Personal") on vinyl and I know I was totally carried away but I still...
Hi, I turned the 72/180 off all last night and this morning as an experiment to see if the claimed advantages of continuous warmth were real. My wife claims she can't hear any difference after a period of unbroken connection to the life-giving mains....
Quick question.Is it worth buying one of these, serial number is 30310 which I think is 1986 ish.Its for sale at around £350. Thanks
Hi folks.Just read the topic somewhere down below about someone's active 250s shutting down. I don't have active 250s - just a single olive 250 - and I'm intrigued by this whole shutting down business. I assume it's related in some way to the current...
