Hello all. Tweaky question here - anyone have experience using Corian as an isolation platform? I purchased two 11"x17"x1/2" sheets and placed them under my Nait 3 and original Planet. The improvements were more than audible; they were stupendous. My...

On the used 140 I bought recently there are 3 outer case screws with a star washer on only one of them. I assumed the owner neglected to put the other two on. I think I might be mistaken? If so which screw should it be on and how tight should it be.Ian.

Thanks for all your advice on my last post. I went to my local Naim Dealer on friday and listened to the new Naim Kit... 1. We listened to the exact setup I have at home at present; a Linn Classik and B&W CM2 Speakers, sounded great I thought... 2. Next up was the CD5/Nait5 combination through the same speakers. From about 10 seconds into the first track I knew I couldn't go back to the classik, no surprises there! 3. I found myself uttering the word's 'can we hear the CDX2' and waited...

Hi there !There is a two weeks behind me with my brand new CD5 and Intros 2.The system was constant turn on and I listened to it about two hours every day. After one week I didn't heard any improvement in sound quality and was a little bit sceptic...

I have CDX, 112/150, PMC FB1. Room is 15ft by 20ftapprox.From other threads it seems fairly common for people to listen with the volume knob positioned at around "9 o'clock".My system needs to be at 12 o'clock or even a bit higher, for what I would...

Hi, Just a polite hello first. As this is my first message to the group. Brace yourselves. We now have a Marantz CD-63SE, Naim 72/180 and 753F's via 2x8 metres of Cable Talk 3. The LP12, Ittok, DL304 sulks unnused. (Since the Maranz arrived in protest...

At the moment I am using my NAC 82 powered by one single HICAP. Is it worthwhile upgrading to two HICAP's and is the 82 good enough to benefit from a supercap power supply? The rest of my sytem is CDX/XPS and 135's driving isobarik speakers. I am...

My CDX has started to do something wiered.During play, it will skip a second or two, or decide that the end of the CD has arrived and stop.I've tweaked the puck loops, recabled, added it to a different channel on the 52 (this was before the last...
