Having had a Naim entry level amplifier in 1981 (Naim NAC42/NAP110) and my interest in Hi Fi lapsing in the 90's and Noughties, this year was the year when my interest in Hi Fi was rekindled. I started off rebuilding my entire system in January. Sold the Naim 110/42 for more than I paid for...

Yes - I had heard that system before in the showroom (well actually Aaudio Imports are based at a residential address in Parker CO) and it was great to hear it again - probably the best I heard at the show.

Sorry, had left before I read your post. Had a great day on the Saturday - met some great people from Naim and YG Accoustics. Well worth the visit.

I will be there. Over on business in Chicago and my friend lives in Denver so not too costly to be there.

You're dreaming - why would anyone sell a NAP500 for £3300 when the last one I saw brought £8500 on ebay? I saw these ads - which by the way are always around and immediately thought "scam"

I have a Teddy Supercap powering my NAC 252 and I was impressed with the sound quality over the NAC 282 it replaced. I was influenced by this thread http://www.pinkfishmedia.net/forum/showthread.php?t=110349&highlight=back+supercap about the dual Teddy Cap v the Naim Supercap and on that...

Don't buy cheap Maplins cable. Get cable from a specialist manufacturer of speaker cable such as Chord - the "Silver Screen" product you can pick up lready terminated from flea bay for £6 per metre or less and it sounds significantly better than cheap cable. It is a twisted pair as opposed to...

Teddy - I can only agree with a small part of your post - you state it all like it is an irrefutable fact BTW - but you are so wrong. For example speaker cables matter hugely, I have just finished a test of the NAC5's against the Chord Silver Screen - I can prove to anyone that the differences...

So how come when you add the second 555 psu it sounds better - surely the basic numbers remain the same. Do you have the specifications? If you go to the Naim website the specs are pretty sparse so how does one take a view on specs alone. I am certainly not "selling" the NDS, sure I went...

Well I couldn't agree more. What I am talking about is people who rubbish without even hearing at all (home or at a demo).....just for the sheer hell of it.

What do you mean by a meaningful comparison. Meaningful for whom? I attended a sales demo but so what how it was demo'd - I heard it against an NDX incidentally. I'm not selling it to anyone but at least I heard it ... have you heard it?

I totally agree. I'm probably one of the few that heard it way back in April and I will most definitely be keeping my impressions to myself. How can someone have a view on the NDS without even hearing it? The views of a few on this site beggar belief anyway, built on no more that...

I am actually UK based but get over to the US about 7 or 8 times a year. I have a lifelong friend that lives in Denver, he has top end stuff (Aire pre, Bryston monoblocks, YG Anats etc and maybe we could get a demo of the Mytek on his kit. I would bring my Chord over with me. In terms of...

So you're frequenting audiophile beauly parlours now? ;) When you where there did you undertake an audition of the Chord?
