System suggestion

Hello Naimers!

Sold my system a couple of years ago, had a nac 202 nap 200 and a Bluesound node2i with a Chord qutest, speakers were Pmc Twenty.26

Looking to start again, I bought a pair of Pmc Twenty5.26, thinking about buying Nac282, nap 250dr

What streamer would be in the same level as nac 282 and nap 250dr?

Well, if it’s look and fit - I’d say an NDX. But functionality is limited depending on what you’re going to stream.

Others here will definitely weigh in over time.

In the Naim range a good match would be NDX2/XPSDR. A bare NDX2 would work, but without the power supply upgrade it’s not really at the same standard as the 282/250. Alternatively go for an ND5XS2 and a DAC upgrade from Naim, Chord, or whatever other brand appeals.

Another option to consider would be an NSS333.

Presumably you are aware that the 282/250 will require a Hicap to work, unlike your 202/200 for which it was optional.

Tidal :blush:

NDX2 is what I’d recommend especially if you use Tidal or Qobuz.

I have to agree with @ChrisSU as I think my NDX2/XPSDR works very well into my 282 although I use NAP135 power amps.

NDX2 to start with with 282 HiCap DR and 250DR.

An XPSDR or much better still (at cost) 555PSDR can be added later dowm the line. Do your research on here.

I stream Tidal with my NDX and am very happy.
