I have gone back to using an analogue tuner after a couple of years of using a DAB. All the channels are OK except Radio 3 which has now got a slight but noticable warble. All the other BBC stations are fine. I live in the south Bucks area. I suspect...

I have just read a review of the Naim SL2's and they sound like the type of speaker I would enjoy. I.e. sealed enclosure - fast and tight bass - a bit like the Linn Isobarik's I had years ago before I went "mental" and "started turning Japanese"Now I...

Hi All,I've got a chance to get a s/h nac112 at a really bargain price. Do you think it can be an upgrade over the 72 in my present system : CDX/72/Hi/250, until getting a 82?I've already read a few posts here on the performance comparison of 72 and...

Well that is according to the new naim glossy brochure. All non 5 series boxes are known as the 'Reference Series'.

Can forum members comment on speakers suitable to use in a Naim system which will give the bass slam of the older Linn Isobariks and SARA's.I heard the NAIM Intro2 today and it has a nice tight bass, a reasonable price (in Australia $2,700) .... just...

What type of change would one expect when upgrading an older (1988) 90 to and older(1982) recently recapped 250? Any idea what a 250 of that age would be worth in Canadian dollars?Many thanks#5

Hello all,connecting a NAC, CAP and NAP in the Naim way has some big advantages (nothing new yet). For instance there is a current loop from the transformer of the NAP to the transformer of the CAP via the SNAIC and back via the mains. Back via the...

Hello People,What are we to make of the recent Hi-Fi press and their obsession with the supposed superior formats DVD-A and SACD. All I read is how terrible CD's are and how wonderful these new one's are. Is it all a marketing ploy? Is any new purely...

I've got my heart set on a NAIM system - CD, NAC282 Pre and NAP250 Power and PS plus I think the Intro2 speaker.There is no way I can get to audition any of these items because of the country I live in. So I'm going to have to bite the bullet and buy...

Curiosity question here... lots of old turntables (lo-fi/no-fi stuff like my dad used) had RPM selector switches to play the old 78s, 45s, 33 1/3 for lps, and another speed setting that was 16 RPM. Was there ever a medium that utilized this speed for...
