The Naim New Classic range - Part 1

[Ian]

I thought the 252 required a Supercap or Supercap DR to work ?

[Guinnless]

You are correct.

[Blackbird]

Great feedback. Many thanks

@Richard.Dane is clearly (still) lurking on this, another milestone day in Naim’s history.
Another thread suggesting dragging him down to the pub this evening for some downtime, clearly hasn’t yet happened. Unless he is already in the pub, where the web speed is better than down the old non-copper cables.
Thanks for your efforts today, as always Richard - if you are just chuckling at the some of the posts, relax in your Eames chair, it will soon be time for @Pete_the_painter to muck in - not sure if he was nominated or volunteered earlier.

I’m always willing to help and I’d be a lot harder on some you blokes than Richard.

On a positive note congratulations to Naim for finally answering the one or two requests for a replacement for the much loved and missed 272, it looks like a worthy successor.

Like the rest of us I’m looking forward to seeing the new stuff in the flesh and the rest of the updated (New) Classic Range. We’re all big fans of the brand and Naim needs to keep evolving to stay relevant and financially competitive.

We can always just switch off the green and black logos and be done with it

Makes me wonder New Classic 250 or used 300DR hmmmmmmm

300DR all…day…long…

@Richard.Dane

P.s. just in case anybody is wondering, my “old” Naim system is sounding utterly wonderful this evening, so just because there’s some new kit coming doesn’t mean the old stuff doesn’t do it any more…

Was just thinking that. My pre price increase NAP 250 DR is sounding sweet and got my long headphone cable plugged into the XLR of my Atom HE.

Stunning new kit! But lemme get back to the music…

Not sure how anyone can make that judgement unless they have had a proper demo of the 2

It’s great there is still life in gen 1 products.

Us SuperUniti owners thank you for your continued support

[Blackbird]

That’s what I used to hide the blue LED on my Farad Super3

[Mike_S]

Good morning Pete, wise words as always.

[Ryder35]

Re the lights. I have the solstice set on medium and, even in the dark it is hard to notice the difference between the white nd green. They certainly do not clash like the radikal led does!

[Neil_D]

What happened with the teaser video of Statement and Utopia becoming one? Is the active speaker not happening?

[Sinewave]

…and a 2011 NDX (old skool)

[Pete_the_painter]

Top of the morning to you Sir. Thank you

[Mike_S]

I hope so, having just bought the 300 DR and having to find room for the extra box.

[Blackbird]

Hm yes that teaser looking at it today was totally lost. More to come?

[Mike_S]

No pricing here yet Pete, though the UK price per unit is the same as an NDX2 - which is $13,300 here.

[Skeptikal]

[nicnaim]

So you have heard both? or just speculating?
