Since there is someone interested in my experience, first of all I need to clarify that I didn't buy the 25.23 after auditioning them and expecting to have a B&W or Focal or name it. I was a little disappointed of the lower end and in some terms of the low-mid. It sounds "strange" even during...

All the hints are pointing towards a minimum of 40 hours of run in, better 80. Exactly what is written in the PMC manual inside the box.

It’s not that I don’t like the speakers, they are really great with a stunning 3D presentation and music presence for speakers being so small in size. The fact is that I never thought there was such a big difference from a brand new sealed speaker and the same one an ex demo, for example...

PMC 25 or 26 are completely different animals, nothing to share with the 23, that's why I bought the 23. Even if it seems a "poor" speaker, it's the best of the line, believe me or not. The only one receiving so many important awards.

I listen to a moderate to low level of SPL and I checked, both speakers are the same. I'll run them in for some hours, unfortunately I cannot place them running with a CD on a repeat mode.

Hi team, I’m a proud owner of a brand new PMC Twenty5.23. During the week-end I unpacked them and I started listening to my CDs. With “some” surprise, I didn’t like the result, they sounded kind of boxed and not coherent medium/bass with the speakers. I read the manual and there is written...

Yes, exactly right. Thanks, I'll have a look at flashback sales.

Thanks

Hi all, in my process of renewing my Naim system I ended up with a Nap200, Nac282 with NAPSC and CDX2. I bought secong hand the 282, connected everything and….. it's not working, there is blinking light in front of the 282 panel. Someone told me that the 282 cannot work without a Hicap, but...

What for sure I'll miss will be the WB ACTs, I'm still crying but I have to sell them.

I agree on every single line. About speakers……… I have a very very good opportunity on a pair of Arivas, They seem to be small, easy to drive and they fit my new room that is smaller than the previous one. Not sure if they are a 3 way speaker. I'm seriously thinking at them,

I'm a Naim fan since 2006 and I owned a lot of items. For sure I'll miss the 252 while, to be very honest, I'll not miss the 300. I need to explain: my room is not big and I don't listen to loud volume, spekaers are a very easy load. Hence, my experiments with 200, 250.2 and 300, ended up with...

Thanks to all your suggestions. To be honest, an integrated amplifier has never been my taste. I mentioned the Naim XS items because I can have a very good bargain as part Exchange for the Nac252 and Supercap, that's why I raised the question.

I had Commodore Vic20 and then 64 and then Amiga. I tried Acorn Atom and was the best ever, so fat that an interpreted VB program was faster than a Commodore compiled one.

Currently I dpn't have any speakers, I have to buy them.
