The Naim New Classic range - Part 1

Yes we’re wanting a naim phono (classic) for exactly that reason. Running from SCDR via 252. Straight swap with Stageline, and we can’t justify another SCDR for occasional vinyl listening.

Of course there are other great options around £1k but those require another power socket.

Looks like they got the dates wrong. C-ck up in marketing :winking_face_with_tongue:, or the French have taken charge….

I forgot, I have a MM, so would need the Stageline, still, could be a bargain.

We’re MM too but would move cartridge at same time as phono change if a Superline became available.

Our lowly Stageline is by far the most basic thing in the rack now.

It’s 8am here in the UK. Information on the launch of the new kit is embargoed until 8.30am GMT, so 9.30 BST here in the UK.

Yes and absolutely nothing on R4 Today program. Perhaps the online Times update at 09:00 will have something.

The shape of the legs on the frame is for the aesthetic surely. (By the by I have two rack arrays, 3 and 4 level). Being at the rear why not swap out that extrusion for a smaller, simple pipe style. 1” versus 4+” on the original :man_shrugging:

An hour and 8 minutes, so. Time for a prog session and some red wine.

Paul. There are two versions of that in common parlance … in the eating and in the pudding. I think in future I will use eating of the pudding which pulls them together.

Isn’t it tea time now down under? :thinking:
