I’m sure you’ll all have a wonderful time!
My factory tour was back in the days when the flow solder machine was a new process and the CAD screens for circuit design were very futuristic. The equipment for the music demo being a pair of Linn Kan speakers an LP12 and a huge stack of Naim electronics. I’d never heard “A Walk On The Wild Side” sound so good. I even took my wife …and we’re still married!
Have fun.

What a wonderful visit - many thanks to Richard, Mark, Jason, Paul and Steve for hosting us all and for Naim staff helping with our queries.
We have been officially informed that although hiding behind the corner, the ‘Snaic Shaker’ is in regular operational use. 
Delighted to see that my CD555, literally just arrived for check-out, had been logged in to the Servicing Dept ready to roll !
Can’t beat checking things out in person.
Test room next to Servicing Dept. with interconnects, every remote imaginable, posters and some interesting historical kit.
It was good to meet everyone. Thanks to staff for being generous with your time and engineering insights - the passion really came through!
A cracking visit 
I have been lucky to have been twice…….but not seen one of those rooms in the service dept. Glad you you had a great day.
Who has secrets to share? 
I see a picture above in a Naim factory room. I see sheeps, as advertisement of Naim audio. Why sheeps, @Richard.Dane ?
It was an old campaign that tied in with some advertising by Naim - the idea was by buying Naim you weren’t being a “sheep” and following the flock.
That’s the one that caught your attention? Are you sure you really are French? 
What’s in the Rega box, top shelf left near ceiling?!!
Maybe someone’s serviced Naim kit shipped to them in an old Rega box?
Exactly. To my mind there’s probably less to worry about than there was pre-acquisition. It wasn’t looking particularly clever.
Why sheep and not a rooster he thought.
Sacre bleu!
It was another most enjoyable forum factory visit yesterday. Thank you to all of you who came along and also thanks to Jason, Mark, James, Paul and Steve for hosting and making everybody feel so welcome. And not forgetting Kate who provided us with a delicious lunch.
Thanks to Richard Dane and all at Naim for their generosity of time and knowledge at the factory visit. I was certainly encouraged by what we heard about the new ownership, especially being a fully formed company, who should be able to bring lots of support in the future.
I’ll add my thanks too - a great visit. My biggest takeaway was the excitement among the staff about the Barco purchase and what that might mean for the future of Naim.
Less exited with former owners then I guess. I hope Naim are in for a fresh start with owners who listen and trust all the talent and knowledge within Naim 
Really appreciated too Jason’s PM demo of the range from 222 NC right up to Statement and introducing the various power supply options as increments. Good music choices and I want a set of those big new (non-beryllium) Focal speakers !
Great to chat with the good guys in Servicing too.
