If you have a turntable and CDS(2)(3) you need two top shelves but may not want two Fraim stacks/base units. The answer would be a Fraim sytle turntable shelf. Would anyone else find this useful? If there is a market for it is there any chance of Naim...

Now its been a while, I feel an upgrade thang coming on.It would seem through close observation that I am now playing mostly records and would be looking to upgrade in this area.Cheaply.So I was thinking of a stageline(?) or an out side of the preamp...

I just took delivery of a pair of Tukans. They are configured for active operation, but I need them passive. I thought I would be able to just connect a few jumpers, and that would be it. But, as I look inside, it looks harder than that. In...

Curious if anyone has heard or owns this combo.Dealer carries Naim Series 5 components onlyand but not the Naim speakers. Have read somewhere that 112/150 combo is minimum requirement but NANA says Nait can work greatwith Allae's.

I'm considering the purchase of a used 82... the seller says "There are two phono boards part no. na526/1" Does that mean this pre will accomodate both MM and MC? Will there be any problem with running an 82 with the rest of my gear? Please advise!...

In what way would an addition of a Hicap (or two) improve my current Naim sound: CD3.5 - NAC72 - NAP140 - SBL. Cheers!

Having just changed my ageing Linn LK1 LK2, to a 200 202. I have no phono stage for my LP12 Ekos Troika, don't quite know which route to go with the Naim numbers ? Stageline phono stage & PSC power supply. Or Flatcap 2 ?. Not only that I suppose the Troika needs changing as is 15 years old, I believe you have to buy cartridges blind these days, or is there a dealer that still demonstrates, and is still good with the LP12's. Listen mostly to CD's but still have a lot LP's. And its nice now...

I would really apprecaite some advice on LP12s & Armageddons. I am about to buy a new LP12, and have the opportunity to buy a newish Armageddon. My question is (are) how do I fit the Armageddon, just it just plug in somewhere? Do I need to specify a particular LP12 to suit the Armageddon? Do I need to specify the basic power supply, or can I order without? Sorry if these are really basic questions, I reall yhave no idea! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks 1)

I know one or two of you out there run active Tukans. I have a pair on the way that were used previously with the Linn active cards. But, I'm thinking of using a NAXO. Do any of you use a NAXO (or SNAXO) on Tukans. Are yours set up specifically for...

Anybody have experience with theses speakers? I have had Studio 20's for ten years now and thinking about these ( on audiogon). The 20's still sound exellent but they have a rear port which can't go near a back wall, the 50's are sealed and go much...

many 'audiophiles' and 'industry experts' in magazines and on the internet claim that cd technology has improved dramatically (even exponentially) over the years.if this is true, then shouldn't a player that costs 400-500 pounds today (eg a marantz...
