I know, obviously, they do Din to pseudo XLR and are about to do full fat XLR to full fat XLR. However, full fat XLR to pseudo XLR, I do not know. They usually reply promptly to enquiries.
Good evening new classic followers!
Naim new classic NAP 250 webpage complaint
Last Saturday a complaint was posted on this forum thread. The post said that the NAP 250 webpage did not mention the NA009 power transistors. The post created quite a stir on this thread and another, causing distress for some. We took the suggestion on board and we hope this concludes the matter. We are all music lovers!
NA009
The NA009 power transistors were developed for the Statement power amplifier, they are our latest and greatest power transistors. Each batch of transistors is from a single wafer and is fully parameterised in a temperature controlled environment. Being from the same wafer makes them like genetic twins. These are then uniquely serial numbered. The parameters are fed into an algorithm and matched and sorted into groups for their respective products.
The NA009 power transistors were subsequently designed into the NAP250DR/300DR/500DR in 2015 along with the discrete regulator (DR) technology. The new classic 250 is no different in that respect and uses NA009 power transistors (and DR tech).
It was noted that the new classic NAP 250 brochure under the ākey pointsā section mentions NA009 power transistors. As do the press information packs (and dealer information packs).
Update
Marketing have kindly updated the 250 webpage to include the NA009. This has been live for 36 hours.

I really donāt know how you manage without the proof readers on here.
Will there be a Supernait 5 in the new range?
What happened to the SN 4? I must of been off the forum for a few hourā¦
That bolt near the start of the word āPre-amplifierā isnāt done up tight! And I believe it does say designed and made in blighty!
Itās on a star washer for earthingā¦
Naim never designate a product with 4.
Great to know they take such care, i take it you may own some of the new kit, or at least seen it!!
Apart from the very rare Naim NAM 402 speakers.
What about NACA4?
And Narcom 4
They then saw the light !!!
Why, you canāt really believe that the new 250 itās going to be better than a NAP500, can you?
It is the new messiah of hifi.
No, itās a very naughty boy!
I demoed the new 250,3 for a weekā¦pretty goodā¦
From memory,.imho, better than old 250.2, challenges the 300dr, however definitely not up to 500 levelā¦surprise surpriseā¦
That is a shame since it is one of my favorite numbers! I hope they are not skipping the number four because of superstitions. That would be really sad considering it is 2023ā¦
There will be no 2024 in Naim land seakayaker
