Hi guys,I'd like to share my enthousiasm now, after a week...Last week, on Monday afternoon, I got a visit from forum-member Bas V. He took along his NAC102. He had it for sale on a Dutch HiFi-site, and he offered me his (mint) NAC102 for a very nice...

Hello Chaps,As a newcomer to the forum but as a Naim user for ten years I cant help a sense of wonder at the musical rewards available to us. As an electronics engineer it took me a long time to realise that the Naim system is so carefully balanced,...

For weeks, I've had only one channel on my Naim Nait 2. Then, after I plugged in my new cd recorder, voila, I have both channels again. Any thoughts about what's going on or suggestions about how to prevent it in the future? I'm thinking of sending...

Does anyone on the forum know anything about these turntables and arms. I think they used to be used by the BBC.Are they suitable for home hi fi use and how would they compare to modern machines?Cheers

The ever-wonderful Art Dudley's review of the Nait 5 in Stereophile says Naim went from Nait 3 to Nait 5 because there were "negative connotations" associated with the number four in some places. What does this mean? Can anyone here shed any light on ...

Hi there,I'm currently using a nice 72/140/flatcap combination for music, which I've been very much enjoying over the last few years now.I'd wanted to put some home cinema into my house and decided initially upon buying the Yamaha DSP-E800 which...

I know I know, Fraim, Mana and QS reference are the ones to go for, but I just saw a rack that could be interesting. Does anyone know this rack, and if not, could it the basic principles of this rack make it something with perspective i.r.t. Naim...

I was told over a month ago that Naim would be coming out with 2 DVD players. The release date was supposed to be in September. Has anybody heard one yet? Are they on schedule or will their release date be delayed. Maybe an administrater can let us...

I can't believe that this has just happened.I just sent a mildly humorous post. Nothing rude or violent in it and unable to taken seriously by anyone with an IQ over 20 and an intact medial prefrontal cortex. I came back an hour later to see if anyone...

May as well start this one off again - what kit you all got? I suggest just listing our systems here, not getting into big discussions and tangents as it makes finding stuff easier if we keep it small.Tony.

Was wondering, we are fairly happy with our systems but has anyone heard someone elses which has made you critical of your own.I am curious as I don't know anyone else who is really into hifi.

I replaced my LK1 & LK2 with a 32.5/Hi/250 sometime last summer and was pondering what to do with the Linn kit. Finally, I got out the camera, wrote some prose and posted on e-bay. A very nice gentleman from Japan bought them and it cost over $125US to ship them! I took the proceeds and purchased something very musical -- a musical instrument! I got a very nice Tacoma Thunderchief acoustic bass, fretless and with the nice Fishman pickups and electronics. It plays like a dream and sounds very...

Well ok, thats not exactly true. I've just started a new job and won't be paid for a month, so i have to sell my hi-fi (102 pre and 180 power) My problem is the balance control is badly scratched and will affect the value, even though it's a plastic...

Looks like I could be off to live in Australia (permanently) in the next 12 months.Can I take my 'HiFi'? Will it work? - I think that Oz has the same mains voltage / frequency as the UK but will everything be OK? - How about those strange 2 pin mains...

I'm sure this has been raised before, but would like confirmation... Just purchased a new HL2 with a SLIC, and currently deciding on a power supply, when I noticed (for the first time) that my Supercap includes an output for 'Digital supply to 52'....
