No I couldn’t wait either I’d be mentally unpacking it before I got it home.
Don’t know if it helps but put a SSD in mine.

Yes Clive, I also have SSD. It’s Samsung 2tb which I’m told will hold at least 2000 cds.
Thanks. Is that the 870 EVO? Are there comprehensive set up instructions provided with the Core, not just how to install the drive, but how to add it to your network and copy files across from an existing server?
That’s the one Clive. Saw YouTube clip which makes it look very simple to install. If you have Naim app it all looks child’s play but not unboxed yet so we will see. If I encounter anything that wlll be useful to you I will contact you again.
Yes!!!
Hi Clive, In my Core I started with a standard HDD but on a few occasions it made a noise on start up so I had installed Samsung EVO 870 SSD quite a simple procedure the Core is supplied with two sets of fixing screws one for HDD and one for SSD drives.
All the setting up is done via the Naim app and is quite easy to follow including the back up procedure.
One thin about the Samsung SSD is that it is totally silent in operation during playback of music the only time it might make any noise is when ripping a CD.
Looks like Santa came early Choo Choo
Seconded
Gone.
Bah Humbug
How do they do in such a large space? I would like to have a room like this for my Arivas.
My first Christmas with the 552DR
and the playroom with a Nait 2 / SBLs
My daughters use the Nait daily, when I look back to my childhood all I had was a crappy Amstrad music centre lucky devils
Amstrad. That was luxury. I had to get up at 4.00am and charge the batteries on the treadmill whilst eating a lump of coal…
Apologies, I came over all Monty Python.
What have you bought it?
Perhaps a nice shinny Powerline or Witch Hat Morgana?
Purchased the 552 earlier this year used example but with a recent service and DR, never thought I would own one!!!
300 is already connected with a pair of Morganas, Graham Hydra for the mains.
I have accepted that I will never achieve this level (not withstanding a lottery win), as a result I will not demo one. I do however aspire to one day own a 252🤞🏼
I’m sure that the 552 must sound simply wonderful, especially through the SL2’s😊
