Naim at the Bristol Show 2020

Or will try to enter in a Linn audio shop with that

To calm down 372 waiting?

Basics seems like a strange choice of name, didn’t a certain supermarket use that term for their lowest cost food range? Surely not an image Naim would not want to cultivate? Perhaps there will be Classic and Statement ranges to follow.

‘ecstatic to announce’ — hmmm, the mind boggles what will happen when a new bit of kit is released.

anon4489532 · February 14, 2020, 4:07pm

Quite. We are all used to delighted and pleased but ecstatic takes things to a new level. As it’s Valentine’s Day today, perhaps orgasmic would be even more appropriate.

A bit of proof reading wouldn’t go amiss. There are at least eight typos in the two paragraphs.

…and…the page is gone!

anon64018693 · February 14, 2020, 6:58pm

Frankly, that’s hilarious.

Chord 2Go and 2Yu could be handy as one way to add Roon functionality to older Naim streamers/DAC etc

HappyListener · February 15, 2020, 5:36am

I think the page was sent to GCHQ for decoding

Removal of the word “basic” from the url

The link has been updated.

Although they specialise in finding needles in haystacks and converting plain English into gibberish and back again I think they might be pushed here! It is probably something to do with the lack of underlying mathematical consistency or epistemology.

Methinks somebody is having a bit of a larf!

Or maybe it’s a “honey trap” to identify forum stalwarts!

OTOH, can I reserve an XL T-shirt in advance for collection on Friday, please.

Richard.Dane · February 17, 2020, 12:39pm

Just in from Naim HQ…

Many Naim forum members may remember the infamous tongue-in-cheek ad: ‘You’re a nobody without a Naim’.
Naim Audio is proud to announce the launch of our special edition merchandise, which celebrates our iconic advert. The clothing features the retro advert on the front while the back has the notorious slogan.
The top is only available to purchase at The Bristol Hi-Fi Show (21st -23rd February).

Too bad these are not available in The Netherlands …

RackKit · February 17, 2020, 2:49pm

What’s wrong with the current 272? I’ve never heard one but it has many fans on here and must be one of Naim’s most popular boxes.

Richard.Dane · February 17, 2020, 3:12pm

And it’s at No.8 in What Hifi’s 9 best Naim products of all time;

Polarbear · February 17, 2020, 3:33pm

They never perform well at Bristol, far too big for the rooms!

anon4489532 · February 17, 2020, 3:42pm

I can’t disagree with What HiFi on this occasion…

Stephen_Tate · February 17, 2020, 3:43pm

It’s great to see the CD5Si in there as well. What a player!
