Hello
I have a very late 2002 Nac52 which was serviced in 2013 (by Naim) and contemplating getting it serviced again. It still sounds Fab to these ears but i know its probably now due a service(or is it ?)
So my first question is do i send it to Naim , Class A or witch hat ? - is there much difference in price/quality between all 3 ?(my gut feeling is to send it to Naim for resale purposes - if i ever decide to part with it)
As for cable upgrades i will start with the Burndy
The Chord variant is probably out of my reach price wise, however i use a TP burndy on my source (CDS3) and am pretty impressed with the latest version regarding build/ Sound quality . The Teddy /Witch hat burndys are similarly priced - has anyone done a comparison and if so what were the differences ?
I know witch hat do a Morgana burndy , which i would consider - anyone auditioned one of these yet ?
Lastly the 52 snaic - is there much point in upgrading this from the original Naim ? ( as far as i am aware the burndy cable upgrade will make the more significant improvement )
On doing a bit of research i see i can acquire a relatively inexpensive hatpin 5 (WH)or /TP snaic.
WH also do a Morgana Snaic at £450 or possible AR sound Lunar equilateral £538(i use Lunars between CDS3/52 + supercap /power amp)
Thanks in advance for advice
