Hi-Fi Corner
Now that I have my nice new 135's I have a 'spare' 140 (it will go into a second system in a couple of years time when I buy a new house.My brother bought a NAIT5 after listening to my system and I wondered (not having the opportunity to have a look)...
As my Naim amps aren't in use these days I suppose I should try the SNAPS2 powering my CD3.5. Has anyone tried this and does it make a worthwhile difference?RegardsSteve
Hi,I currently have Nait3R/CDX/Royd Doublets. I would say that was a bit mulletish and am considering an upgrade of the Nait to 102/180/NAPSC. Does the forum agree this is an appropriate haircut, has anyone recently had a similar restyle and can I...
Astonishingly my misses the other day suggested we invest in a new turntable as the cover on my old systemdeck looked too 'shabby' for our trendy new minimalist look in the lounge.Therefore, do I go for one of Pro-ject's better offerings or maybe a...
Yup. When I returned to my LP12 yesterday, I found it was turning, and had been for up to 12 days.What are the chances that I damaged the player?BTW, I thought I noticed something funny during the last week, but when I looked intently at the platter...
L.S.Always keeping an eye open for good pre-amps to pair up with my vintage 250, I've now got a chance to buy a 62 at a very acceptable price. Question is, does the 72 really have that much of an edge over the 62? Should I let this deal pass and wait...
Can anyone tell me if there are noteworthy differences in the sound of older and newer hi caps?
Hi,Problem: When playing my LP12 through my nait 2 (and Kans) I have to turn the volume up to 2-3 o'clock to get a decent sound level. On CD I never have to go past 9 o'clock. I previously used a nait 3 with MM boards and back then I didn't have this...
I have just heard, from a reliable source(a friend of a Linn employee), that Linn is developing a standmount speaker, using Ninka type drivers in a larger Katan style cabinet. What interests me is that they are to be isobarically loaded as per...
Hi folks,While surfing on the internet today I came across a Dutch Naim dealers site. Now, in their 'occasions corner' they had a s/h NAC62 for only 226,- euro/143,- UKP.I dont know if it's an old-style or a new-style one, but it seemed like a fair...
Hi,Is it possible to straighten out warped records? I've got one that's so badly warped that its unplayable on one side. I've currently got it in between a couple of slabs marble in a bid to straighten it out. Would a week suffice? Any suggestions as...
Any active owners know how to connect the snaxo to drive units (High and Low) rather than speakers (Left and Right), or is this not possible ?I'm sure I've heard of some forum members mixing stereo amps with snaxos ?naheedactive Phase 4 SBLs is the...
Hi,Can anyone please help me. I wonder wich transport my CD2 has.My time is running short.Serial: 116801Have a look at the pics I have taken with my webcam.http://w1.921.telia.com/~u92111504/naimbild/
Since hi-fi is supposed to be all about music (yeah, yeah the system is mearly a means to an end) I was curious what music people listened to.So ...Other than Dire Straits 'Brothers in Arms' which is a given What is peoples favourite album and why...
Mick has had a few problems uploading, so for those of you who can't wait any longer, here they are!
the news says: "The circuit topology was totally reviewed ..." and also split power rails have been mentioned.Now my question: did Naim change the topology, e.g. to differential input stages or even symmetrical input stages ?regards,Hartmut
I've trauled through what feels like millions of posts on this site to get an idea of what speakers people are using with their naim systems - but I think I'm going round in circles!!!Can someone suggest some speakers to demo that will run with...
Is there anybody out there who's had a chance to audition the new Adikt cartridge from Linn. If so what's the verdict?? Any feedback would help as I'm wondering whether to shortlist it as a possible replacement for the ageing Kanine on my LP12/Ittok! ...
Ever since I bought my Nac A5 I have had two coils of the stuff under the hifi rack as the shop were rather generous with their tape measure and I got a couple of meters too much on each side.As I did not want to cut it down, incase I ever need the...
Guys,My Nait 5 has started to sound a little uncouth of late, almost as though it's experiencing distortion.Now I've tested a few things and have found that:1. Changing the volume really doesn't appear to make an appreciable difference. To me that...
As you know I´m looking for a S/H cd player!i´d like to know some sites where I can find S/H Naim and others stuff!
YES, THERE IS!After having sold my CDI, 102, hi, 180 and Intro's, I went way back to a Linn Classik. I soon realised I missed the typical Naim sound. Fortunately I stumbled upon a Nait 5 and a CD5. I have bought a pair of ProAc Tablette 50's and some...
