Is the output of an amplifier folows the input of it - which means that the amplifier deals only with one signal at a giving time, or, are there many signals that are "runing" in the amplifier at any giving time - which means that the pre can deal...

Duh..having brain-fade here guys. Got some new A5 the other day but can't remember which way round they go and can't find this on the main site under accessories. Is it the white arrow towards source or the other way (towards speakers)? Thanks in ...

I have been trying to get information on the Naim prefix options. In the end I got the feeling that Naim does not know which cartridges match up with what prefix other than the cartridges they were specifically designed for. The K type prefix was...

I'm about to audition some new gear (probably my first Naim purchase) and was selecting some music to take along, which got me thinking about what the best music to use was.Do you use your favourite stuff, you probably listen to it the most, so know...

I am a bit confused. I want to upgrade my NAD cdplayer to a NAIM. I have a couple of options:A new CD5 (connected to my FlatcapII)A used CDX (if I can find one)A used CD1A used CD2At the moment I own a Nait5 + FlatcapII so a CD5 would be the logical...

With the current 'heatwave' (i.e. more than one day of sunshine) I've noticed that my amps and power suppies are getting quite warm.Particularly the XPS, which gets very warm indeed. Aiming a fan at them soon cooled then down, but a few questions came...

Saw an article in a Times supplement yesterday which indicated that DVD audio is the new format for audio and is about to take off. Panasonic apparently have a player at about £500 which was used in a demo listened to by 4 semi professional...

But, Has anybody tried thier pre-amp with two 12 Volt car batteries wired in series. Seems like this would work, no?Judd

I have the opportunity to buy a one year old second hand CDX for £1350. I live in the Netherlands and the guy who's selling lives in Germany 700km from here, so picking it up is out of the question. Sending it by post is an option, but i am...

a thought just occurred to me. it is clear that naim are very good at power supplies of all sorts -- with the supercap being a prime example.it strikes me they could diversify, without diluting their pure brand, by making power supplied for other...

Had a dedicates pur installed inthe new house as per Naim spec, 6mm cable, 30A breaker, star earthed, 6x unswitched double Crabtrees, dedicated earth rod.Naim recommend leaving the cable earth disconnected, but the spark has says I must disconnect the...

With the impending arrival of the first born, money to upgrade will now be limited. So, what are your top 10 system tweeks to gain the most out of your Naim kit.My current setup, and its likely to be like this for a while ...

I saw your comments re muting the aux in record mode. I have an 82/super. I tried it- dont think I hear a difference. What is the basis for this tweak? What differences do you hear? Let us all know, as this tweak is as cheap as they come! david.

Your viewing angle will alter what appears to be the VTF scale. Do you view it from above while the arm is locked in the rest? Do you view it when the arm is at the beginning of the record?-end of the record etc. What is the generally accepted custom?...

Does anyone no if I can get my old 110 upgraded to a 140. How much would it cost? Have anybody any experience from doing this?It Kan be done!

Hi folks,I wast just wandering on the internet when I took a look at the a Dutch kinda LOOT site.There was a guy offering an (old style) NAP250 for only 1250,- Dutch guilders. (about 300,- UKP)(see picture of the amp)He did chnage the DIN to RCA...

Hi everywhere,When will CDX II be launched?

Didn't realise Naim produced TVs.Check out loot.

Had a thought last night ... I have a CDX and XPS. So sitting inside the CDX is a dirty great big transformer and associated gubbins. Now I know that we say to keep power supplies away from front ends/pre-amps etc.. But can these things have any...

I'd like to know the relative merits between these two players. I've heard a fully Linned LP12 (Ekos/Lingo/Linto)and liked it. I can get a fully Naimed LP12 (Aro, Armageddon, Prefix, HiCap)though and am wondering what the significant differences are....

With LP12/Geddon/Prefix/Aro: Is a Troika good enough? Nobody can demo this, but I am not sure if I should rebuilt my Troika if I am going to use it with an Aro...Thanks for any advice!Jun

I saw it yesterday night - and the look is impresive.Can't say more because the system on it had a technical problem.The price of 6 shelves is like the price of a 72 (when it was on the market), somehow when I saw it, the price seems to be quite...

Re our discussion last Friday at the barbie - please could you send me your email address - I have not spotted a post from you ThanksDerek Wright
