It’s the same cable. The connections and pins are the same.

Best get someone official to double check in case I am wrong!

I think the answer is that they are not the same.

Just to be safe, I called Naim’s distributor in Sweden and they said that I should use the same cable that I use for my XPSDR, the other Burndy cables are only intended for ND555 and NDS. Many thanks for your help along the way Igel and Dan, always difficult when things are completely new to you. :smile:

It should sound instantly better. Clearer presentation, more detail, more defined bass.

So you can connect a 555 ps to the 272 using the S XPS burndy ? If it’s true, I will be surprised and say you that you saved 1k.
@Richard.Dane can confirm?

Yes you use an XPS Burndy for the NAC-N272.

But can you use the NDS/ND555 Burndy to connect to the 272? I thought you could. Can we confirm? I thought it was the same, just braided and maybe slightly better.

No I’m not aware that you can. It’s what the Burndy cables for the NDS come with the head unit.

My only complaint against the Nds : not possible to power it with 2 XPS DR. All the rails would be used, it would be cheaper, and nicer looking.

The NDS/ND555 cables are one for the digital side and one for the analogue,the S XPS Burndy do both digital and analogue.
