I hear you Bart. I’ve set the VTA with the stylus in the middle of a medium thickness record using the little level. Tracking force is set at 2.3g combined with the Azimuth so the bubble is dead centre. Anti-skate has been adjusted by ear. Also checked for alignment & over-hang (just of curiosity) using the supplied protractor. Everything is spot on as far as i can see. One the easiest decks i’ve ever cared to have setup. Sounds fantastic throughout.
Hi Richard, yes sorry it was ChatGPT.
i really wouldn’t over think this - the 332/250 is a fantastic amplifier ‘system’ that will get the best from your amazing source TT. Yes new speakers might open the door a little wider but then again you may decide to stick having heard what the amps can do.

I have no urge to change my speakers at this time. I was a bit gobsmacked when I first connected in my Solstice turntable. They almost doubled in size. They are only petite in size and will be lacking in some areas but the amount of sound coming out them of was truly uncanny to say the least.
God knows what will happen when I add the 332/250

I loved my nSats Stephen - had them in the piano black and cherry finishes . Was very happy with them
It’s only when I heard the Neat Petite 30 anniversaries ( piano gloss black) in comparison did I make the change - they are one hell of a speaker

Absolutely Bevo. It’s great we have Neat Acoustics here in the UK. When my n-SATs eventually pack up then i shall certainly revisit Neat. Indeed i already have a pair of Motive SX2s here, albeit in another system. I think their Momentum JS stand-mounts could well be worth an audition.
Yes the momentum J- S stand mounts are a stunning speaker I have listened to them on my dealers 333/332/250 set up - sensational
For my main system I was using the Neat Ultimatum XLS stand mount, also incredible but too powerful for the space for apartment out of Sydney where my main system is. The J-S is similar big sound too much , but great speaker if I had the space.
I’m trading in one of my 3 pairs of neat petite classics ( luckily have apartment also in Sydney) for pair of Neat Elite Classics which sonically is the bees knees with the 333/332/250. Yes J-S I love but not right for the space.
Good luck with speaker selections into the future , you will love the 332/250 - keep NDX2 it’s great

@Bevo i found the 333 to be superior to my then NDX2. Had finances been an issue, I could have happily lived with the NDX2.
Yes I agree Jaybar 333 is better than NDX2
Stephen listens to more vinyl these days so no hurry to replace the NDX2 it’s a great streamer

@Bevo I keep alternating between the default auto standby of 20 minutes and never. This is beginning to be very stressful.
If it’s stressful leave on never

@Bevo Thanks. i spoke to my dealer tonight. He essentially said the same thing. He suggested putting the 333 into standby only before bed.

Ah yes, also another contender 
When i was at the Bristol show at the beginning of the year i probably visited the Neat room the most and for the longest. When i exited that room for the final time (after listening to the Alpha Iota 2’s) i gave Bob a big fat 
on my way out. Needless to say he smiled & thanked me. Wonderful speakers.
This is what I do. You can always put it into standby if you leave the the room and forget using the app, assuming you have phone/pad with you
Here we go again….. you haven’t compared Ndx2/Xpsdr to 333 as you went in the same time from SN3 to 332/250.

You are part mistaken. I had the NDX2/XPSDr which I had for about a year before moving to the 333. Granted i did not have the NC 250, but comparisons can’t always be perfect.
You moved from :
Rack 1 top to bottom
Rega P9
Rega P9 PS
Isotek Power Unit
Highcap PS
Rack 2 top yo bottom
Naim CD5Si
SN3
NDX2
XPSDr.
To 333/332/250. Then you added the 2 300ps.

IMHO the Solstice is the finest source component Naim have ever made.
