Hi @aristoweb , sorry to hear you have less of an experience. I am very happy with it and continue using the clearline

@aristoweb

have.

iFi AC iPurifier is a different product it’s an active filter and Naim systems don’t like any filter other than something high quality like a very powerful current regenerator or high end products like Puritan 156

Not my experience and many others with this product. Have you used it? That was general advice for the past but not so much I believe with current technology active filtration.

Mine was definitely a negative experience and I asked to give back the purchased product.

The product changed the Naim sound and made it thinner, less natural and less immersive.

I have more clarity but at the expense of naturalness and a softer and less muscular sound.

However, for those who want to buy it, I advise you to listen with your own ears and not to buy it in a poke as I did.

Also to be honest I still don’t understand what this product works on and this remains a mystery.

I haven’t tried the Furutech Clearline but have a Furutech NCF booster in my system. It’s an overall positive experience. If you can return the product, I would recommend that you try it. They have several versions and I may add 1 or 2 more in the near future.

After this negative experience I do not think I will buy any other Furutech or similar products and will keep my Naim system as faithful as possible without Tweak.

I think that might be a wise choice!

I suspect many tweaks change something, and the assumption is made that it cost money, so it must be better. Not always so, but psychology is a funny thing!
