    NAC72 to non-Naim power amp

    NAC72 to non-Naim power amp

    Quick question I hope: to connect my Nac72/HiCap to a non-Naim power amp, should I take the signal from the 72 four-pin output or from the HiCap? I have the requisite 4-pin DIN to L-R phono cable.

    [FREE] Squeezebox Radio

    Squeezebox Radio, free to collect from London SW2. It works and sounds great, no stickiness to the controls either. No box or remote. For some reason I can't get it to stay connected to my wifi network and have to reboot the squeezebox; this may be a network problem on my side I suppose...

    Garrard 401 re-painting

    That's interesting, thanks. I hadn't heard of vapour blasting, but it sounds less likely to cause damage to the alloy casting compared to other types of blasting process. Did you repaint the Garrard face plate to the right of the controls as well? This looks more tricky as there's a chrome (or...

    Garrard 401 re-painting

    I have a Garrard 401 which I'd like to get repainted. The deck is in good mechanical order, but both the chassis and platter have suffered to some extent from being in stored in a loft. Does anyone have any experience of doing this and/or recommendations please? I should add that I'd like to get...

    Ojas at the Lisson Gallery

    That's a strange view to express on a hifi forum. I enjoyed my visit to the Lisson Gallery last week, it seems to be generating a lot of interest too.

    I've just seen a post on facebook from Chris Harban and know there will be several here who'll be interested to read, so am pasting the full content: "For the TD124 motor..... sorry, this is not a fun opinion to have, but it is based on careful observations over a long period of time, and with...

    Nice Garrard 401

    Having serviced both of mine, I don't see any quality differences. Both flush and raised versions have the same stamped plate serial number riveted to the chassis, and the machining of the platter is if anything superior on the raised strobe model.

    Nice Garrard 401

    Do you know why the early version is more desirable? I have an early flush-strobe 401 and a later raised-strobe version, and the raised strobe is definitely my preferred one to use. It may be down to how they were used and looked after prior to my owning them I guess.
