Hi @Ravvie,

My apologies, I don’t mean to create any offence. I am quite new on the forum and the guidance suggest introducing yourself and saying a bit about oneself and the system that one uses.

Actually, I cannot complete the equipment list in my account yet as I am currently in an evaluation cycle for amplifier(s).

In my own case, I last tried to find the right amplifier 4/5 years ago and did not succeed. Hence I am tying again just right now.

This thread is my clumsy way of trying to do that (in a slightly different, whilst hopefully entertaining, way) and at the same time trying to give a bit of a flavour of how I go about things.

Thanks for the feedback.

Is there? Well I gave up around 74.

No offence taken. I just wanted to outline a different perspective of a hifi hobby.

The football bashers seem to be having fun though. We’re used to that level of banter on the Premier League thread.

Could you please remind our players of this.

They, too often, appear to loose sight of the fact that there is a league above theirs…

Your analogy is a good one , it’s a bit like comparing a Hyundai to a Mercedes (I’d choose the Hyundai) ,

One thing that you will discover is some of the simpler systems are the ones that have had the most thought but not the most money spent on them

Hi @Neilb1906,

I hope what I post now, really helps. I can see that you have a fantastic system. Super advanced and classic at the same time. I think we might have quite a lot in common really. Apart from being on the Naim forum, and also living in ESSEX.

Your amp is special version of Class D right? Your speakers are Monitor Audio. FYI my first proper HiFi, which I owned from 1985 to 2003, used Monitor Audio loudspeakers, driven by a Rotel 840 BX integrated and a Philips CD 304 source. See pic below…..

The purpose of this thread is to introduce myself and my HiFi journey to hear, no wait, I mean here!

I hope the above answers your question sufficiently now?

If not, then keep watching, as there maybe a big ‘reveal’ later?

And I do hope you will permit me to use a few more obscure football gags along the way?

All the best,

I rarely do, I have a Nait 50, in theory 25 watts per channel , but it will drive my Harbeth P3ESR very easily

Hi @Wugged_Woy,

I don’t know, what do you mean? I am not originally from Essex.

I am simply ‘Of’ ESSEX now.

Thanks for asking though.
