Welcome aboard, and enjoy the music.
My entry in to the world of Naim wasn’t entirely planned either. I went to the local dealer to listen to new speakers and ended up walking out the shop with a CD5si and once I had that a Naim amp and streamer followed. I suspect once you get a liking for the sound of the XS3 you’ll probably be looking for a Naim source too

Mine was fortuitous…1984, I went to my Linn dealer for something to do with my LP12…he had a used 42/110 pair…I had no hesitation in replacing my Nait with these!
Thanks. How long does Naim gear take to burn in?

Welcome to the forum OpenD!
My first piece of Naim was a XS 2 and stayed with the integrated amp when I moved to a SN 2.
I am sure you will enjoy the XS 3. You may want to complete your profile section and list your other system components. You can see other members profile by performing a mouse click on their username. It is an option but it is a quick way for members to get a whole picture of other members when they are asking system questions.
Also the search feature is a useful tool when looking for information…

The road to perdition starts with liking an XS3, then wondering about adding a Flatcap or switching to a Supernait 3 and then wondering about adding a HiCap
There are some really good things about Naim, generally rock solid construction, a clearly defined upgrade path oh and this forum which has been really good during Lockdown
Best wishes, enjoy the ride

And we overlook the sources at our peril .
The first Naim Audio kit that I owned was a 42/110 back in 1982!
Welcome and enjoy your new XS3. I had a XS2 and LOVED it.
