Hi,When considering to go for Naim's top flight player, I'm always a bit worried about the probability to come to a dead end. Spending another thousands of £ (SFr.) not knowing when everything comes to an end scares me a bit...There's one...

I've just been offered a Linn Centrik speaker at a reasonable price. If you have any experience with it, please tell me your thoughts. My fronts are a pair of Linn Kabers, so I'm guessing it'll voice rather well with them.

It seems that the MC phono boards for the 52 (and I presume the Prefix and all other Naim MC phonostages) offer an impedance of 470 Ohms (S boards) or higher. One of my cartridges is the Ortophon Rohmann with a recommended load of only 10 - 100 Ohms....

Hi,I am new to the forum. Please excuse my ignorance on all of this. I currently have a NAIT1, Rega P3, Rega Planet, and Castle Severn speakers. It looks like I could get into a NAC72 and NAP90.3 for about $1000, which is about my budget. Is this the...
