Hi. How would you connect a Linn Linto to a NAC 82? What kind of Interconnect do you need? Do you need to remove the phon0 board from the NAC 82. I am posting this question for someone who has purchased my Linto and he is getting a Loud woosh sound....

HiMy current system is CD5, Nait 5, Intro 2, Flatcap 2, Naca5 (installed on Saturday and I'm very impressed). My dealer mentioned that the Sound Organistion rack I'm currently using isn't really ideal because Naim equipment doesn't like metal and...

HiAfter a bit of help. Does anyone know the tracking weight for an Audio Technica AT-F3/OCC moving coil cartridge? Also if anyone has any other info/links on said cartridge I would very much appreciate it.Thanks in advanceRich

From what I've observed on the forum and read in the recent hi-fi+ review of the SL2, it appears that Naim speakers must be used up against the wall (or at least within inches) to get satisfactory bass performance. Is this fact or fiction? Does anyone...

Anyone any experience of comparing on board K boards with an outboard Stageline?Jeremy

Talking to a dealer yesterday was fascinating. He said that the new 250 is so good that folks are trading their 135's towards them. Has anyone had a chance to compare 135's with the new 250?Has anyone done the 'dem of a new 200 vs. an olive 250? I'm...

I bought my 52 second hand and it came with NA526/1 boards but these had been removed so that there are no boards in the phono section. Is this better or should I replace them? I assume NA526 are used if you want to use the phono input as a line...

Hi Naim fans I use the NAP 140 [1988 vintage]and have replaced my NAC 62 [1988 vintage] with a NAC 72 [1990]I have removed the non essential boards which has improved the sound, I'm very pleased with the sound over and above that of the 62 using my Naim cd 3.5. I like the shoe box size units however my wife is not impressed with the colour difference between the 72 [olive green]and the 140 black old style. Now chaps my question- [at last you say] I don't want to hi cap / flat cap anything!

Just wondering whether the settings in the 242 are the same as for the Snaxo 2-4 or whether the crossover settings are slightly different bearing in mind it is probably intended for the SL2 which I assume is a little different to SBL? It's just that...

Just posted on PFM. I'm quite sick of people getting away with the easy way of slagging off Naim. Why not take ML (Korsun boxes,with his sex..... advice),or take (fill in)?Naim isn't the last word in detail ,soundstage and that sort of crap, but it's...
