Remember that you need the Naim active leads
,made of the same kind of cable as a Nap 250 interconnect cable

Yes, if using amps smaller than a NAP250 you’ll want Naim active leads as the SNAICs can be too capacitive which can make the NAXO unstable.

See the picture of the DIN-XLR and the notes below - the active lead looks the same, just with a DIN4 at both ends.

Have found this in my stash of bits it has no directional markings,
From my understanding this an active lead,
Am I correct?
Thanks

It has the usual Naim collar - which indicates the signal end… :slightly_smiling_face:

If it has DIN4s at both ends then it’s likely an active lead. The banded end determines direction (closest to source of music signal).

Compare it to a Snaic,the active leads are thinner. than a Snaic.
