There was a guy on FB received one the other day, maybe he is here too ?

Funny old world, It is an odd thing a bit like the modern retro cars like the Beetle to that Chicago looking one.

How will this (or the original version) compare with the price comparable Naim Nait XS3 wonder ?

I'm sure there are forum members who are champing at the bit to tell you without even having heard either one.

Over on the green forum I seem to think I had read some comments on it being on par with a SN3...Funny how this stuff goes over there. In the end, it only will matter to those that buy them, or those that do get a listen to them, what they think it might be comparable to.

I wonder if this will be on show at Cranage this weekend, would be so cool?

 

[Nero]

Surely it doesn’t matter what it sounds like? That’s really not the point. It ain’t gonna be groundbreaking, but as long as it’s OK, there’s no sweat. Job done.

 

[Gervais Cote]

Is it just me or is this 120 impossibly cool?

I want one!

It’s not just you.

That comment was from Naim themself as I understand.

I think the smiley face implies a joke. Humor is still allowed, right?

Given the poster's recent history on Naim threads (bear in mind he has two profiles and posts under both of them for some reason) I'm not convinced, but anyway... whatever!

Never quite understood the need for having a different name on different forums?

He has two accounts on the same forum, that's the weird bit!

I've read later post from the doubting sheep brigade told they ordered, obviously they just needed that last marketing from the horses mouth.

One is his personal account. The other is his trade account. Certain things are permissible under one an not the other. At least that's my recollection of the situation.

It’s a nice gesture by Naim,

In fact another gesture from Naim...how to optimize listening, fresh from the makers place.

"Nait 50 improves considerably after running in. Out of the box it will sound detailed and punchy, over the next days more warmth and engagement come, then more PRaT over the weeks.

While running in:

• Make sure it is not in standby! - set the ‘auto on’ feature to ‘on’ (i.e. it does not sleep) - this is important
• Use the volume control (min to max to min occasionally)
  Engage and disengage plugs and sockets (signal, mains and speakers) to remove oxidations on contacts."

And in other news, bears defecate in wooded areas.

You are going to look like prat believing that.
