I am ever so slowly peicing together a HT combo that will integrate with my HiFi (72/Hi/250 B&W Matrix III spkrs). Receiver is/will be Demon 2106. Centre spkr is n-CENT. Definitely was the nicest/clearest sounding spkr my dealer had, and also no opportunity to listem to B&W. Will drive with a NAP140. My quandry is should I go for: 5.0 using n-Sats on wall at ceiling level @1m behind sofa... Gut feeling is this would be more synergistic, and that the "real" speaker wwould be far superior, but...

I hope this isn't a daft question..... If I get an AV2 and a NAPV175 to add to my existing stereo then why do I need an additional NAPV150 for DTS use?

I know the issue has been raised before but I wonder if anyone has new thoughts. I'm seriously contemplating to purchase a DVD5 come bonus time to replace my 2 year old Arcam DV78. I love my Arcam unit. For its price you get pretty good CD playback...

Hi everyone, I recieved my n-Vi today and couldn't wait to set it up! I know there have been problems with earlier builds and on the advice of my dealer I waited until now to purchase one. (My dealer returned his previous stock to Naim while R&D looked into things) Anyway, at the moment I have it connected to my Sony Bravia T.V. but I don't have a proper 5.1 setup as yet and was wondering if any of you guys could tell me what the sound quality is like. The reason I bought it was that...

Is there going to be a retrofit upgrade to the DVD5 so that it will be able to play HD disks once a common standard becomes established? Otherwise, since DVD is mainly a rental medium it could relatively quickly become useless. Vinyl has the advantage...

We now have our second n-Vi and thought things were going okay, but now I am not so sure. The remote control seems to have died (and yes, we have checked the batteries) after just a month. Has anyone else had this problem?

Dear AV people,Can someone explain to me the differences between HDMI and DVI and the role of an HDTV tuner? At the moment I think that once we get digital broadcasting, the HDMI socket is the one to use which will also enable HDTV (assuming one has...
