Hi-Fi Corner

hi could anyone tell me if I'd cause any damage plugging my nac252 into a bryston 4bsst2 using the supplied din to xlr cables?

Does anyone know the recommended cable configuration to connect a superline to a hicap-dr?   The hicap-dr is connected to a 282 Aux2 input via a 4 pin (at the hicap-dr end) with a hiline into the rightmost socket when looking at the sockets. 

Hello! I need your help as I really want an original pair of IBLs, I have got two pairs but both was modified by previous owners (stop ruin classics!!). Since these speakers are so rare in my parts of the globe my way become to restore at least on of...

I have a UQ2 which i will connect to 8 ohm speakers, the Linn 109's.   Do i have to use the NAIM speaker cable NACA5, i think i asked this question before many months, but i lost the answer.   Basically i would prefer it i could use...

  Greetings, I need a bit of help with my new Naim kit.   Heres my system; NAC 202 powered by HI-Cap, NAP-200, Superline powered by a second HI-Cap.   My question.  What cable do I connect the Superline to the 202 and what output...

Advise please , I have noticed for a while that the volume control makes a noise when around to increase the sound from silent and then goes away. The noise is there when both the remote and manual methods are used to increase the volume. I can...

Hello to you all.   I have finally bought a Nait Xs (from 2011). It's my 1st serious amp and I'm loving every single minute of it. I have just tried to use my headphones and noticed that the amp will switch automatically to Aux 1. When I manually...

Be gentle, I'm new to this game!   I recently bought some new headphones, Oppo PM-3's, and I auditioned them using the same box of tricks that I have at home, a Superuniti. In store I used a USB stick with a selection of my WAV music selection. I...

Would like to know how many hours are fully run in?

Ancient footage discovered!

I may get to audition a set of Credo against my RS5, which would trade in plus a small amount of $$.   What can I expect and how shall I set them up?  Are they good close to the wall?   My RS5 are pretty new, and I assume the Credo will...

For classic series components, whats the norm for shelf spacing; standard or medium?  I only have 3 components and as such need a bit of height without it lookng ridiculous.  I am thinking medium?    Whats the difference between...

When the Superuniti is idling, and regardless of volume I hear a distortion through my speakers intermittently...i hear shhh then silence, then shhh..then silence and it is more prominent-- then less prominent...in left channel then later both...

M y system is presently a wonderful CDS3, XPS-DR, SuperNait, HC-DR, SBLs. It's the result of a series of lucky purchases, of stumbling into the right seller, the right item, at the right moment. It cost me like a second hand car, but not like a second hand boat, it being the case had I bought everything new. I don't think I need more than this, although some may think that my SN is the system's bottleneck. I don't think it is, either. S oon before the summer I decided to sell my HiLine and...

lp12, Roksan Nima with Linn Adikt. That was the decks content when I picked it up this weekend. Three years of age, Adikt not used very much so I guess it's more to get from it.   Any obvious choices here. I want to keep cost down if possible, at...

At a branch of Nando’s there was a 'Suggestions Box' in which they welcome your feedback, and the thought occurred that Naim could also have a suggestions box somewhere. For this is it possible for Naim R & D to consider the following? Next generation of integrated amplifiers, Nait Demi-size Nothing to do with an actress, this is for the next incarnation of Naim integrated amplifiers to become compact cased, as was one of the previous versions of Nait, (2 or 3?). The benefits are clear...

hi all, credos in da house at the moment. I have torqued up the drivers from 2.5 nm to the magic 3.6 nm just wondering if the tweeters need doing. They are a 1997 model and would suggest that have never been touched. Do you think it's needed or just...

Why doesn't get the nap100 a DR upgrade?

Hi guys, Hope you can help, I'm trying to connect my Nait XS to my recently purchased Audeze Deckard headphone amp. The plan was to use the Nait as a power amp but cant seem to get it to work. Can anyone offer any suggestions? Thanks. Anthony.

Good afternoon all ,I have an Unitiqute2 , Nap 100 and Keff LS50s , the speaker cable currently is chord ley line 2 , I am taking it to my dealer next week for the Tidal update , is it worth me upgrading my cables to NACA5 ? I love a bit of upgrading...

Hi,   I need some help here: After many months of fantastic sound quality I am beginning to have issues with a narrow sound stage, squeaky sound, a general mismatch. It is all there but not in the right order.    I have taken the HDX...

Has anyone been able to compare the NAP 250 (CB/olive) to 250.2 and now 250DR?   These are all regulated amps, so would be keen to hear how the 250.2 and 250DR sound compared to the oldest models.    

My trusty Osawa OS-60 high output moving coil is screaming out to be replaced.... Now, as it has given me good service for a couple of decades I'm not au fait with the latest ranges of cartridges. I have an Ariston RD40 with an ADC ALT-1 arm which I want to keep using (for sentimental reasons as well as the fact that it still sounds pretty good). I have a Rega phono amp that I will continue to use. I am looking on t'web and trying to get a shortlist of cartridges to look into.... I want to...

Hi there. I have a new Unitilite and a pair of KEF LS50s. The speakers are superb in every aspect but the lower frequency range clarity. I've read loads about these speakers without actually getting a consistent view that matches my own. It's not just that the bass is 'light', but that it sits so low in the volume level compared to mid and high frequencies that some content of the music actually almost disappears. This is a shame because the sound quality coming from the Unitilite is superb.

Hi!   Have any of you listen to KEF Blade in a Naim system?   What power amp was used? What is your impressions of the sound? Was KEF and Naim a good match up?   I have a NAP300 and wonder if it is powerful enough to drive a pair of KEF...
