Recently bought a NoS Naim headline for a cheap price.
Looking really lovely and sounds really nice.
My current setup is this:
CD5
NAC112
NAP150
FLATCAP XS
STAGELINE
HEADLINE
This is my problem.
When I was going to connect my Headline I had to disconnect my Stageline from Power Out B socket on the Flatcap XS.
I checked the other sockets on my units and none them has a free Power OUT!
How do I connect my Stageline without spending money on a HiCap or something else??
Can I use one of the free sockets from SIGNAL OUT on pre-amp or Flatcap XS ??
What tha hell did Naim designers think when they manufactured these units if I can't connect both my Stageline and Headline in my Naim setup ???
2nd question ???
This Headline being brand new in the box with serial number 3757XX
It was never opened before.
Pins inside the DIN connector were all black and tarnished, I inserted and removed DIN contact to my pre-amp socket maybe 15 to 20 times, all the way in but black shite didn't scrape off.
I know Naim don't recommend using DeOxit to remove oxide what else can be done to clean these pins ??
Is it normal for pins from DIN connector to degrade turning black inside a sealed box ??
