Kind of. I did not listen to the new 250, I get the impression that this is the star of the new range so far

Well, you’ve at least compared pre’s - which is something (not insignificant). How did you work the source?

proof is in the pudding …
in other words only you can decide after experiencing and that might be different to others, and that is absolutely fine.

E.g who would think mincemeat went in pudding and not main course

Is the announcement today or tomorrow?

I was halfway through my PhD work, living in Edinburgh, and building various HiFi amps and preamps - heading inexorably towards Naim, though I didn’t know it.

Tomorrow the 18th.

2 hours then?

Just seen the teaser video - are they branching out into laminate flooring? :stuck_out_tongue:

My real wonder was actually which icon is it referring to?

I’d like to think we got a clue earlier in this topic

Would that then imply a ‘100’ series ?

Based on the boxes that we know, I would guess the homage is to the mono block 135350.

Fwiw, we’ve managed to get the performance of NSC 222/NPX 300 > SCM40A to surpass the performance of NAC 282/Hi-Cap DR > SCM40A.
