Bump, still for sale

Bump. An excellent upgrade for 272 or other naim pre amps to non naim amps or active speakers

As title I have a pair of 4 pin DIN to XLR signal cables for sale. I had these custom made to connect my Naim NACN-272 to my active ATC speakers. they would however also serve to connect any naim pre amp with double DIN pre outs to any balanced amplifier or active speakers. I elected to use a...

No not had chance to demo yet but will before I bring it home. Whilst I'm sure it will sound better it isn't the only reason for upgrading for me

Will be interesting indeed...

From memory, when I had my NAP the Din lead for connecting to preamp came with that. I'm only buying the NSC222 so I expect the xlr would come with the NAP250. I'd love to be wrong though!

Thanks ill take a look

I think ill likely go with something off shelf from mogami or similar. I needed up getting some custom 5 pin din to xlr made up for my 272 which I'll now sell, they were excellent VFM compared to the chord shawline I demoed with.

My cable search will be the same regardless I suspect, any advice on reasonably priced XLR would be appreciated

Well I've butten the bullet and have a 222 on order. Need to get some balanced xlr cables now but can't decide whether to go with the mogami gold or some AES / EBU ones. Either way I don't want to spend more than £100 quid...

My p8 perfectly silent though my Aria is very susceptible to mains hum from my (i believe) pre amp

I did the free trial of this a while ago along with qobuz. I really liked it but in my situation I was having to run it on a laptop which obviously isn't ideal. With tidal and qobuz integrated into my streamer natively I don't really have a use for it but it is a great platform

Second this. My Ovators were fast but rhe 40s blow their socks off.

On its own, will be a while before I can convince my better half that I need to spend another 6k on hifi haha. Not sure on wait but I've no rush to be honest, the 272 is providing excellent service still. I do need to shift the teddy xps now though...

I'm with you. Just put a deposit down on a NSC222 to replace the 272. Better get some overtime in....
