Hi there,Does anyone know if you can change the volume level on the AV2's digital (Toslink) output? The volume on the front dial does not affect it but I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a setting to adjust the output level?ThanksDan

Hi All,I know that keeping your Naim kit warmed up is key, but does keeping it on stand-by count? I have been leaving the N-Vi switched on all the time but it means that when we switch the TV on it defaults to the N-vi logo (its driving the wife mad....

Finally, decided to go for the Aracm DV139. Simply superb. CD playback is a bit too laid back. Video picture is shockingly good.

You can confuse a stupid person like me very easily with this HD stuff. Can someone please let me know if my thinking is logical - or point me to a better way.Right, I looked at various TVs and this is what I have deduced. That 1080p fed with a 1080p...

I recently got an ex-dem DVD5 and last weekend obtained a DVI to HDMI cable to connect it up to my 10-month old Panasonic 37" 600-series Plasma. Everything worked fine and fired up the nearest DVD to test it (Pirates of the Carribean), to good effect;...

Hi everyone. I just picked up an AV2 and have a question / concern re: its DPL II performance.Prior to the AV2, I was using an Arcam AVR-350 for my processor (movies and tv viewing only) partnered with my Nait 5i and NAP150. DPL II performance on the...

have looked at the above lcd screen, and noticed if i use my x-box 360 via componet to the vga input, would have to plug my n-vi into HDMI socket via DVI to HDMI lead, but i also remember reading that mike said he prefered his n-vi via component into...

I know it has been asked before, but is there in the meantime any news on a possible successor of the AV2 (AV3)?

About 5 years ago I had a plasma screen (and surround speakers) plumbed into the house. All cables are routed from the Sky + box & DVD player & hidden in the wall / plastered in. They are long runs running up and over the legth of room. I have a s-video cable for Sky and component video cable (with 3 colour coded connections) for the DVD available to link to the Plasma (currently a new Pioneer). I don't need sound to the plasma (have speaker cables from my Denon processor). Based on this...

Can someone tell me if there are major differences between the PIC chip versions in the AV2? I am interested in buying a used AV2 from 2004. Will this contain the latest PIC chip?

My nVi will not play some EMI Classics DVDs, eg Menuhin, Kogan, Brendel. The problem is with the audio, dominated and distorted by static. The video is OK. The same DVDs play properly, eg, in my PC's DVD drive. Other EMI Classics DVDs play fine on the...

My DVD5 remote seems to be broke. It controls the AV2 ok, but not the DVD. I know it is the remote as it behaves the same on another DVD5/AV2 setup, and the remote for that setup works ok on mine.Any diagnostics, resets or other ideas other than get a...

How do I connect my receiver to my 92/90 combo ? Can I do it on the tape loop ? If yes, is the volume pot on the 92 bypassed ? Hope someone can answer my Q.../Tomas

Hello All, I am thinking of buying a Sony Bravia 32-inch LCD. It comes in various options and the 'V' version is the top. Anyone any experience of this product? [My current TV is Sony 20-inch CTR and is about 10 years old]. Is the 'V' version worth the extra ? Thanks James H. [P.S. I know very little about home cinema -- I am really just interested in hi-fi but this is for the rest of the family]. P.P.S. I am looking an analogue TV [Ireland] over cable and maybe a satellite for 'free-to-air'...

Do you think Naim ever issue the scaler for the DVD5 or will it go the way of the Linn Exotik DA?Or, do you think Naim will simply issue a DVD5+ (or DVD5x or maybe DVD5i) with a 1080p scaler built in?I am extremely tempted by the Arcam DV137 or 139. I...

Hi, I'm toying with the idea of some sort of 5.1 system. I need some advice on center and rear speakers. I love the sound of my IBL's and don't want to lose them. What is the conventional wisdom as far as matching IBL's with center and rears speakers....

I am looking for a all-in-one solution and came across the Naim n-vi which looks very tempting. During browsing through the manual, i noticed that the n-vi is not able to apply decoding on it's analogue inputs. Is there another way to do this? How can...
