For Innovative Audio, I wanted to thank all of the visitors who came by the three Naim demonstrations in the show last weekend. I also wanted to thank the folks at Naim North America who did such a great job in presenting the new equipment. They were...
just managed to get my hands on a s/h CDPS (arriving in a week or so) and I was wondering if anyone using a CDX on a glass/metal rack has experimented with these little oak disk/spikes that go undet the feet that Russ Andrews sells and are are on the...
Sorry I've seen this before and can't find it on the search.A friend has got a pair of elderly 135s (elderly means they were some of the first of the new style). I suggested they get re-capped after reading this on here somewhere.1. Do they need the...
I would appreciate any comments from anyone familiar with the Active Linn Kan I (note I not II) as I am considering purchase of a pair. What would be a fair price with NAXO?I was unaware that the Kan was ever manufactured in active form (although I...
ChapsMy vinyl system comprises of a restored Garrard 401 mounted in a solid wood American ash Loricraft plinth. The arm is a Rega RB300 with a Dynavector 17D2 MK11 cartridge.Even as it stands it sounds good but I want to improve it.There seems to be a...
Is it just me or are the logos on newer "new style" components brighter? In comparing various age stuff from 1989, 1992, 1995, 1998 and 2001 it seems to me that the brightness increases with youth. Has anyone else noticed this? If so, is it that the...
Hi all.I'm using a NAP 140 with a pre that has balanced outputs on XLRs. Can someone tell me how to wire this up?RegardsStephen
Hi,What does PRaT exactly mean?RetoCDX, NAC102, NAPSC, Hi-Cap, NAP 250 (on Target Rack), Chord Odysee 4, ProAc Response 2.5
Don't groan!I have just assembled my QS Ref racks, and first impressions are extremely favourable.Previous stands were Sound Factory Tripods.Better control, deeper bass, more resolution, more foot tapping, all good stuff.I am learning not to keep...
HiI'm flirting with an NAC 52... (who doesn't?) Ofcourse saving money for it needs time (at least for me)The 5 Series as well as the new 552 have a new design and it seems reasonable to guess that the 52 will change as well. Anybody heard about...
yo guys,got my naca5 wif my system recently. when i try 2 connect the naca5 to speaker, realised tat one side(either positive or negative polarity)of the naca5 cable got the arrow sign.to connect the naca5..simply follow the arrow sign towards the...
Spent part of this evening listening to some CDs that I've not heard in years on a hi-fi.One of these was the Texas album (White on Blonde).It sounded simply lousy. I thought that I'd poked in my speaker drivers it sounded so compressed and messy.The...
With all this talk of LP12s here's a question:Given that the s/h value is about the same, which package would you go for:LP12/(AW)Lingo or Geddon/Ittok/TroikaorLP12/Valhalla/Aro/DV 17D2?No marks, no prizes, just give it to me straight.Alex
Anybody heard a 2x180 active system? I already have a 180, facing option of upgrading to 250 or going active with another 180... can anybody help?What else would I need to go active? (excuse my ignorance, I don't know how the kit works, just that it...
If you had to name one product that, in your opinion, has made more difference to the hifi industry, the secondhand market, or merely your own system...what would it be? No doubt the Linn LP12 and the associated shift in system make-up in the 70's...
Esp those with a high incidence of naim eqt...
To many this will be no surprise, to others it may be a shock. I'm not going to go on but believe me when I say this:'Mana is the best support there is for an LP12 and for a CDS2. Just set it up properly and away you go. Those who complain that Mana...
Folks, excluding equipment, what would be your ideal listening room for its acoustic properties?How big?Carpets or wood?Curtains or blinds?Wallpaper or paint (or carpet if you're so inclined)?Where would you place your rack in relation to your speakers?
I notice that one of the UK Sunday newspapers is advertising a free CD. A message on-screen says that some of the tracks will only play four times.Anyone know what technology they're using for this?cheers, Martin
I have seen two types of 160's, there are some with what looks like a single amp modual. Then there are others which have two smaller ones. Does anyone know when this change came into effect, year or s/n.Steve
As the first piece of gear to directly contact the source material, the puck is the essential component of any well matched system. I have been using a DIY super-puck made for me by the local boys at Boeing of aircraft-grade titanium and platinum....
This only happens occasionally, but sometimes turning the volume down with the remote doesn't work. I have to turn it up first and then I can turn it down.Anyone else having this?
Just wondering why naim has not built a bookshelf speaker as entry level (i.e. relatively affordable) to the naim world of PRaT. Judging from the forum members, it seems many are using bookshelf speakers like the kans etc. Surely there is a market out...
