I was after a snaic 4 to go from hicap dr to supernait 3 and seen a few with different numbers on the white band around them anyone know what they mean ?
Just wanted to make sure i get the correct one
Gary
They are (AFAIK) a code for the person at Naim, who made them… 
All SNAIC’s are equal… 
(My ‘nearest’ SNAIC - a -4 not currently in use - is marked NA-0133.)
Thanks ian
You can laugh now, at the eBay listings describing a SNAIC-4 say, as an NA-0034…!!!
As if its a Part Number…
I can find more of these numbers, if you want…? I must have another 3 or 4 SNAIC’s… 
PS. NA-34 and NA-40 found…!!!
lol just need to get the right one for supermait 3 and hicap dr my local dealer has closed down had a lok on the bay and got totaly confused (doesn`t take much these days)
Cheers Ian
Be careful of eBay - plenty of fakes being sold as “Naim SNAICs”.
“Licensed to Thrill”?
Yeh I’ll stick with a dealer and buy online
Once you know what a real Naim SNAIC looks like, buying from eBay is not an issue.
I have bought 3 that way - all are genuine, all work fine. But ultimately it is your choice.
Thanks ian 
You could post a picture of any potential SNAIC’s on here - and get some opinions.
Spot on thanks 
Peter tyson has some for £99 no box
Much less than that on eBay. About £40 to £60, is what I have paid.
Thanks Ian looking around now just want to make sure its original is there any difference in age between the black ones / revisions or updates
Found one for £60 on the bay seller zootsuit67 i wont post links as i dont think that is allowed and i dont want to break any rules 
He said its about 5 years old
That looks right. Go for the Black versions - they are newer and considered ‘better’.
Thanks so do you know if there are any difference between newer and a 5 year old one ?
Err, 5 years…!! No - AFAIK - if they are both Black.
My oldest (?) Black SNAIC is from 1999, which I bought ‘new’.
I have earlier some SNAIC’s but they are Grey.
I have no idea how old my other Black SNAIC’s are…
