Hi folks.
As a few of us here have had Naim kit modified, either DIY or via experienced bods like Les, and in light of some positive listening tests with a newly recapped and mains-optimised silver bumper Nait-2, I'm interested in what can be done to take it a bit further.
At the moment all of the rhythmic integrity and excitement factor is there, and (post recap & with good mains) there's a surprising articulation and detail, coupled with sufficient power to drive my speakers. All-in, then, a bit of a bargain for the estimated £250 I've spent on the amp plus the work done on it.
However, it could do with being a touch smoother, and a bit more even-handed - i.e. it can sound a wee bit vague in more complex music and tonally it could do with more colour. Picky, I know, but if a little breathing-upon can really let this baby sing, why not?
