A photo perhaps… . ? It’s an option currently under consideration.
ATB, J
I’d like to post a photo but never done that. What I can say is I used A GoldNote DS10 to drive the ATC SCM20 Actives and it didn’t have the necessary 7volt output parameter so it had to operate at 75+ volume and never worked very well. Into a Sugden IA4 it is utterly brilliant. I was an early adopter of the DS10 and the software drove me mad but is now fine. Anyway the 222 runs the ATC actives superbly as being closed boxes they need a good 4-5 volts to perform otherwise they are a bit anemic sounding. By the way the GoldNote CD10 on balanced output is absolutely brilliant.
Just for future reference, if you ever wish to post a photo, take the photo with your phone/tablet. Then, when posting or replying, tap the little picture icon, rectangle with little mountains and sun above the text you’re typing, and it’ll bring up your photos where you can select the photo(s) you wish to include in your post and then carry on typing or reply/send the post.
Good luck if you have a go,
ATB, J
I’ve 2 and soooooo happy with the 2 boxes
Last year did an extensive listening session with a naim dealer. Start point was the 222/250. And i a was dissapointed. That dissapointment dissapeared after adding the NPX 300. So for my ears a 222/250 without NPX 300 was already a no go. The 222/350/350 was also a huge improvement but maybe that was more due to the speakers that need more then just an 250.
But YOUR ears can be the only ones to decide..and then your willingness to spend the extra for the improvement.

Not sure this is especially relevant to this thread but I will put it here anyway - bought an NPX300 from Signals last week to go with my 333/332/350 PMC 25.26 system. Well, having tried it on both the streamer and the preamp, I much prefer it on the latter. It could be a synergy thing with the 350s and maybe different with a 250 - regardless the music now has a beautiful ebb and flow. Even in the days of OC, I believed in preamp first, source second and that is certainly the way I hear it with the NC kit in the context of the 300 series.

I had only one 300 with 332 & 333 initially and 332 won the day by some margin.

The NPX300 went in about 45 minutes ago attached to my 332 and the difference is not minor. Like a curtain has been lifted with exceptional micro detail and sound staging. Bass is very tight now and the system will only get better as it runs in. It is the analogue connection with the music that has brought a rather large grin to my face. That and being on Jersey means it is VAT free!

I think good is an understatement.
