Just a quick post on the back of the 272 aerial post.   My 272/250DR order has been delayed by a 2-3 weeks due to a parts shortage so I can add the DAB/FM module if I want.   Wasn't too bothered but what would be the advantage in having this...

I am new to the digital world and just acquired a DACV1 at a considerable discount. I am not finding it much better (a little crisper) than a 700 dollar Rega DAC that I traded in. I am now thinking of selling the V1 and picking up a Dragonfly v1.2 and...

Hi Guys, I've seen a second hand pair of Audiovector X3 for sale (2013) build I think and was wondering if anyone has (or does) own a pair?    How good are they and would they be good for my Naim Uniti 2 ?   Cheers..

Hello all,   This seems like a recurring question on the forums but I can't find much information specifically around adding a NAP to a UnitiLite and the sonic benefits.   I recently sold some old kit and I have modest budget for an upgrade...

As a JBL studio monitor nut, I find I am also extremely aroused by UK brands like ATC, ProAc, PMC, Graham, Art, Harbeth, Spendor, Wilson Benesch ect. I adore the "classic look" of a timber stand mount which in many cases is large enough to be equal...

Hi,   I have a Unitilite connected to a pair of old Linn Keilidh. These speakers were passed to me from brother, who used them paired with a Nait 3 amp, it sounded great, with deep bass and detail. With the Unitilite, however, the sound is very...

What do you guys (& girls) advise with regard to an aerial, to supply a good signal to the N272, for DAB & FM Radio? (I have the module) Can I take a feed from my TV aerial or do I need something else? Advice always appreciated. Steve

Hi all, last year I replaced my ancient Sugden with the Uniti qute2, which I'm delighted with! A year has passed and I now want to replace my equally ancient B&W DM22s. My budget is limited to under £1000 and cannot be stretched unfortunately (well not without divorce being involved) The speakers need to be floor mounted and will be away from the wall. I tend to listen at lowish volume so am after something the qute will be able to drive without going flat at low volumes. Been reading up...

Good day to all of you. Hoping that there will be members here who also try to have the best possible sound in their car, I have a question. Who of you have managed to play FLAC files throught the car audio system?   I am getting my Audi next...

For those of you who have not been following my various ramblings, here's a quick overview.   My old kit was a Musical Fidelity A3.2 pre amp with 2 x A3.2 power amps connected to Monitor Audio GR60's. Got very disillusioned with the sound. I...

Hello NAIM lovers,   I have NAIM combo (amplifier and player) 5i and I am very happy owner because the sound that this combo produces is simply marvelous.  Recently I have noticed that player does not reproduce some cds but it is probably...

'The Humped Chub'. I'm not selling lurid DVDs, and this isn't a general exhortation for people to rush about humping chubs. Neither am I a lonely chub. It's essentially a meaningless quickie that might, briefly, lift the veils of sorrow - like what your Mum does. It's also the new name I'd like to propose to describe my brother's gloriously unfinished* hifi. It stands as an abandoned folly: a hymn to absent mindedness and ambition. Whenever I see it, I wince. Like an excitable chap spelling...

How can i see if it is a RCA-DIN or DIN-RCA Naim Interconnect?   On my cable the green band is closest to the DIN connector.

I wonder if Naim would say how may pairs of SL2s were made? I remember reading that only 250 or so pairs of NBLs were made, which seems an incredibly small number. The SL2 was smaller and cheaper so I imagine that a lot more than 250 were made, though...

OK, I've finally got the bass traps and location of the sub pretty much optimised, here's the result... It's a 1/12th octave smoothed data set and it shows the main features essentially at full amplitude (the main difference to 1/48th octave...

Just took mine (Hicap) off and never did this before since I bought it - and surprise ;-) - it does sound totally different, better? I think I like it a lot better with the Neat Ultimatum MFS! More depth, more stage, more medium but a bit less high...

A friend of mine has a 401 where the magnetic arm that is connected to the speed adjustment control has lost a level of its magnetism, so when the setting is slap bang in the middle the 401 runs a bit slow. He is trying to find out if any body...

Hi Guys,   Apparently the V1 uses one chip (1791A).  I was under the impression that a quality DAC utilizes eight or more chips.   Am I off my rocker? (lol no need to answer that)   Perhaps a noob question although I have...

Guys, There's a lot of stuff being talked about Naim amps and Focals speakers at the moment. If you haven't had the opportunity to hear the Sopras with Naim amps you might if possible get down to the Audiobarn this Saturday. It's a great venue...

Hello everybody, a humble question from a humble UQ2 owner. Has anybody tried or heard the UQ partnered with a NAP 200? I’ve got the opportunity to buy a (2013) second-hand NAP 200 for half price but unfortunately I can’t audition the 200 at home. I did try my UQ with a NAP 100 at home and was not completely impressed. Okay there maybe was a wee bit more grunt and a touch better imaging but the NAP 100 simply added to little. And at the same time it felt like the Qute was a bit sad. That I...

Dear all, Book a chair at your local cinema for the première of the new French comedy with Christian Clavier " un heure de tranquillitè " I saw the trailer yesterday where you can see in the cabinet behind him a a big Naim system with no less than 4 classic boxes. The main character is in fact a true Jazz vinyl enthusiast and eventually hi fi nut. Unfortunately he's continously pestered by every member of his family . Bonne vision

Hello all. I have to admit I haven't posted in the Naim Forum for about a decade...the era that Vuk forgot.   I'm undertaking a thorough system revamp, including an SME20/3, a new phono stage, a SN2 (probably) and...well I'm a bit stumped about...

Yesterday my local dealer has done the change of the a cable. The headphone chanels were wrong. (left = right, right = left)   Some one else here with this issue?

Someone asked me this question and I wasnt sure how to answer. I did find a Superuniti that was alot more expensive than mine . Does the latest version have added features? Mine is a 2011 model. Thanks.
