Hi-Fi Corner

Hi: I was surfing the Net when I saw this site www.dezorel.com It´s Jugoslavian firm that sells filters that improve the sound Anyone knows about that stuff? I´m really curious MY sistem : Naim Nait 5 amplifier,Nad c 540 cd player,B&W 601 speakers,Naca5

I've got a NAP 250, NAP 160, IXO and IBLs. I want to run active. Is it possible to configure the IXO/cabling so that the 250 runs bass and the 160 runs treble and if so does anyone out there know how. All advice gratefully received!

Hello everyone.I have a quick question. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I may have to re-position my speakers so they are on oposite sides of one corner of the room--facing the opostie corner, which is where my sofa will be. They will be about...

I am about to buy a Linn Classik for my flat in London. Can anyone suggest some smallish standmount speakers? Living in the Middle East does not give me the opportunity to troll round stores doing dems, so I would like to draw up a short list, before...

Since I obtained some great small loudspeakers for my kitchen system (Dali Royal Meneut) I have been totally happy with it. It is ridiculously overspecified (CDS1 and 72/140), but I got the kit at great second hand prices. I am totally happy with it -...

Paul S. got me wondering about the configuration of some of the earlier NACs when he mentioned that the 552 wasn't the first Naim pre to have RCA connectors factory fitted.As the product history pages on the main Naim site don't yet offer much in the...

another general newbie question I am afraid. I am currently running a Nait1, and am angling towards getting a NAC72. Assuming I get the 72, would it be a better idea to get a amp such as the 140 or 180, or get a NAP90 or 110 and a flatcap or an older...

Hi,How fast do you wish to upgrade? Do the time gaps between the upgrades increase or decrease when looking back to the whole upgrade path that you've done so far? Of course the amount of money you need to do the next step increases generally and...

Hello, Currently I have three hicaps in my system. Two are on my NAC 82 and one that I switch between a CD5 and prefix. The changing of the cables on the one hicap is starting to get old.The following are two options that I am considering:1) Purchase...

At least a few people here talk about the imperial college audio soceity, from when they used to study at the college. Here I am at the freshers fair and its not in sight or listed anywhere.Does this mean that the club is no more?

Hi everybody,I can buy a pair of NAP 135 "first generation" (1984) for a good price.Do you know if these old 135 are different than the newer 135 : technology, sound ?Will they sound better than a recent NAP 250 ?Thanks for your reply and sorry for my...

Spent sunday night rearranging the position of my system (82/HiCap/135s). I had previously left the 82 literally next to one of the 135s. It is now about a foot above it; the 135s have a slightly bigger space between them and the HiCap is now beneath...

Saw this ad on Loot today - by the description this could be a Armaggeddon?"Phono Stage, Naim, based for moving coil, cartridge, looks like hi cap and connects withSNAIC leads, Price: £75 ."Or is this likely to be something like a...

Gents, Check out Hififorsale.com for some tempting kit for sale.......

Quoted from another place...quote:The HifiThe main focus of the day was for customers to hear the top end linn set up. The CD12, klimax preamp,klimax amps and komri speakers. To me this kit sounded fantastic - you might say for 50K plus it should do...

OK... I recently (about 3 weeks ago) bought a NAC102 and a NAP180. Im very happy with them so far... But last week, I had a problem where I was running my Gamecube through the TV, then the TV through the Amp. I had left the game on pause, and after a...

Thought I'd audition a Hicap in place of a Flatcap 2 in my LP12/Ittok/Stageline(S)/FC2/32.5/Hicap/135s/SBL system and was left feeling a little confused.I expected the Hicap (olive style, 3 years old) to completely outclass the FC2 but somehow it did...

Do X-overs deteriorate over time? I have an elderly set of SBL's and like Leica wonder if the X-overs benefit from a service. I've never come across this before. Has anyone tried a recent X-over on old speakers?

...probably the most serious it's possible to get.Some of you may have read on the forum about the mains oddness that we've been having lately(surges and brownouts and powercuts). Anyway, Western Power have replaced the old substation causing all the...

I emailled some questions to them this morning regarding service costs, and got a reply within an hour. They are on of the main reasons I am happy to buy Naim kit because I know that it is well supported by a professional and efficient group of...

Hi all:The front end of my system is Armageddon/LP12/ARO/DV XV-1/102 ('S' boards)/Hi-Cap/NAPSC.I'm vinyl only and the next upgrade step will likely be an external phono stage with the Stageline and Prefix as obvious choices. The thing is that prior to...
