Hi-Fi Corner

Hi all,I'm back for my once in 6 months question !I understand that square rooms are an acoustic no-no. We're planning to have an extension built - a room for the hifi !!!Looks like it'll be 14' by 12' (apx 3.1m by 2.8m), and a standard kind of...

Do you know something about this firm?Arye

G'day, I wanted to start this thread to see if there are others out there who have (suffer) beloved partners who really cannot understand why you have gone beyond the basic midi system and spend thousands on little black boxes and buying lots of...

I have a snaps, can I use with headline if I want to, thats the question.Mats Sagitarius in aeternum

My current system is CDi/82/Hicaps/IXO/140s/SBLs.I'm very seriously considering a supercap to replace the 82 hicaps, and the Snaxo to replace the IXO (keeping a hicap to power it)...This would leave me with CDI/82/Supercap/Snaxo/Hicap/140s/SBLsFrom...

...was fitted today and the LP12 is back on its Mana perch in my living room.What an arm! I am one *very* delighted vinylhead - the Aro seems to have completed the vinyl jigsaw puzzle - everything is just perfect now. I shall stop worrying about Phono...

Hi !Can anyone tell me what is the price for new Creek OBH11 headphone amplifier?Did someone knows where to get some cheap headphone amp (it shouldn't be new)?Thanks,Ozren

Got your attention! picked up a Linn LP12, SME (series III) arm, grado cartridge and 225LPs in mint condition at a garage sale for $150! The LP12 works fine but I need to find some links that can help with fine tuning it along with links on the SME...

According to Naim’s suggestions I gave up driving the system via 3 separate outlets. Now I use one common outlet for the Naim 6-outlet-extension and it’s really better. (It may be so because of Naim’s characteristic earthing...

I have a Rega planer 3 and a planet and - no surprise - the planer 3 completely blows the planet out of the water in terms of musical satisfaction. I know this is very subjective but how much would one have to spend to get similar musical satisfaction...

My conversion to a Naim system is nearly complete.Now that i have the goddies - how should they be placed on the 5 tier rack? System is CD5+HiCap/102/180+S**y tuner.Is there a formula for this sort of thing?Thanks for any advise!!Ceri

NANA's price list is no longer showing Credo's or NAT01 or NAT02 prices on their list. Does this mean new models?

I have a soundstyle stand with CD2, 82, 2 x hicap and 250 each on their own shelf. Im shortly getting an AV2 and NAP175 and wondered if anyone had advice on where I could double stack them? I thought to put the AV2 on top of the 82 and 175 on top of...

Hi there I have question Iam thinking of buying the 72, why not 102, simple the cash limit at the moment.Back to my question which one of the 72 is the latest, there are two version one with two pair of BNC, and one with just one pair, so can anyone...

cdps..Question:I have a cd3 or 3.5 or 5 and any amp/speakers..Answer:Buy a cdx you will see a noticeable improvement. You could buy a *cap and use it as an interim phase, then switch it to the preamp and buy a cdx.Question:-I have a cdx and any...

Hi allI have been playing around with a dealer-loaned CD5 and 112/150 at home for a week with my Planet 1/Nait 1/Kan IIs. I have reached the following conclusions and I'd be interested to hear any of your thoughts...The CD5 is herds better than the...

A friend just e-mailed me this mad scientist link - a picture of those speakers must be worth a look.Anyone have an idea how thick the lead needs to be to keep the UF6 in check?

Maybe a stupid question, but what is it???I have a CDX /Nac102.... and I don't need any cd board to make it work.I have:... read Nac52 "with cd board"Could you explain me?Charles

I don't know how anyone else feels about this, but I am finding it very difficult to gauge just how much (or how little) to consider paying for used Naim equipment, especially given the possible age spans involved.Obvious questions are how much one...

I've mentioned this briefly before, but the Mission m71 loudspeakers are very good and would suit many people's starter systems.They were about 160 pounds (sounding more like a 400 pound loudspeaker), now they've been discounted to about 90 pounds in...

If you were thinking of upgrading to a second hand 72/250 system would you opt to buy new a new 135 etc instead it only seems to cost ... well say £400 more. Maybe even a s/h 135 set up but i hardly see them for sale here in Scotland.For use...

When reading through some threads in another Forum (Audio Asylum) I came across the following two posts. I just wondered if anyone would like to comment on these.TerryIsobariks are incredibly fun speakers, big, warm, agile, solid, extended bass but...

Hi!May I ask a question about the treble purity of my system? - I have active SBLs (see my profile), but I have the feeling that trebles are not totally natural. Today I tried Kans in my setup, where the trebles were a little bit harsh compared to...
