How long a run is feasible from the AV2 to XLR connections for my active speakers pelase?I ask as my original lead introduces loud hum on the spekaers on the 10m run. The 5m run is fine.It was ok when it was RCA to XLR.I suspect it's the cable,...

So then.... whilst this is only an enquiry and ,no, i havent heard either of them in action yet. I have to say im in favour of the Naim as im running a DVD5, CD5 & FC2X and the sound is great. Bearing in mind they all run through an Arcam AVR300 and im sure they would all sound a lot better through an all Naim system. Anyone have any opinions????????

Dear Naim I am looking to have the firmware on my AV2 updated. I was told that your local dealer can do this. I have asked Loud and Clear in Scotland if they can do this and was told no. Are there any dealers who can do this in Scotland or does the...

or wait?I have bought all my Naim from the same dealer and have had for 10 years or more an excellent relationship. I'm now in the market for an AV add on and have pretty much made up my mind on the AV2/175/n sats/centre route. Not sure about the DVD5...

I'm a satisfied owner of DVD5. Most DVDs look great in my Pioneer PDP505 plasma. However, satellite TV through my Astro produces a picture that truly sucks (patchy). Have been asking around for an external scaler that can solve the problem and further...

I have a Denon 3805 for my home theater. I use a Nait5i to power my front channels (Polk LSi 15s). When I listen to music I don't use the Denon and there is no hum. I only get the hum when I power on the Denon. And it does not matter if I'm watching...

Hello I have an AV2. After some tests, I consider to sell my NAC 112 and use only the AV2 as my preamp also for Stereo. (Perhaps, I will go back to a real Stereo system, in when I have some money again to afford a NAC 202 or 282 ;-))But for the Moment...

On imminent arrival of my dvd5 (maybe?) any suggestions on coax digital connection between the player and receiver? Im currently running an Atlas but im sure there must be something better.

Just wondering, now that I have a couple sources, I need to switch from output mode depending on source. What are your experiences with auto? Do you find that it does not always pick the "right" one?
