    FLAC + PC + Hugo2 v Vinyl + LP12

    Rip your vinyl to FLAC with a decent ADC. I bet you are hearing the difference Nait1 / NAC52-NAP135. And the Nait isn't shabby, more pleasurable if it has easy going speakers. And, if I may suggest, try a less sterile sounding and "better" DAC or transport, the Hugo isn't that good with the...

    Speakers that work well with NAP250

    Olive, CB or black 250? Ultimately I enjoy the 160 a fair bit more with my SBLs, even the Nait1. But my mate loves the 250, so I didn't get rid of it yet.

    Trying to help a mate out........cassette to CD.

    It should double as a line input, stereo. Would be a strange laptop with mono mic input only.

    Niam NAC 12S

    The authentic thingie to power the 12s is the NAPS. But it may not bbe the best. My 160 does the job, too. Looking at all my Naim amplification, I wouldn't part with the 12S, the 160 Boltdown and the Nait 1. Those are keepers. Sadly the other Naims don't do it for me at the moment: Nac 32, 62...

    NAP250 (Olive) serviced vs. non-serviced?

    Why not go active with both 140s? Sure the naim path may be to get 250s or 135s first. But I enjoyed my time with the active SBL's and the 140's (later with 160's). Seems that I prefer the "unregulated" naim amps. I used Naxo2-4/Hicap and later an Avondale'd IXO to good effect. Try to have the...

    Short Naca replacements

    LesW / Avondale made some way less obtrusive, NACA - compatible replacements - that did not require 3,5m if I remember correctly?

    Have you made sure that there are drivers for your audio hardware ready for the operating systems in question?

    New Avondale Audio Website

    No more accessoires at Avondale? I really liked those red power cables. Speaker cables were fine, too. Hope they will be available again!

    Credos to SBL - A good idea ?

    Hi CHE! I've gone that same way years ago and - honestly - never looked back. The SBL is a often critisized speaker, but in reality the SBL just wants a nice solid wall behind it, and not too much furniture beneath them. You may have read that already. The only thing to worry is a broken...

    NAC 12S & NAP160 Advice Please?

    I agree. The 160 powers a 12s just fine. Hubert
