A SH 555PS-DR has just presented itself to me, replacing my XPS-DRā¦it would be rude not to. It is Christmas after all.
Merry Christmas everyone!

I made this change a couple of months ago, XPSDR on an NDS to 555DR.
Itās not a subtle upgrade, quite surprising really.

Hi Santa Arrived early at 12.05 in Sunny Wales with a Used Naimuniti2 arrived , I bought
( my wifes christmas present to me ) , thanks honey itās just what I wanted ( beats the dodo out of aftershave shower gel and sox etc I cant say the s### word online ) I bought it it on approval, well my first impression is WOW its bloody heavy ,I mean my wife nearly did herself an injury bringing it in for me lol , no seriously Iām disabled leggs are bad I use walking sticks , I plugged it into the headphones socket with my sennheiser HD650 headphones, the sound is very different to my Marantz CD6000 ki signature clear open balanced after 30 mins or so with the cranberries, I can say itās a keeper WOW Iām shocked almost like my Quad esl57s but in my head weird , but good very good way , I kept my old gear boxed all over my home after I moved for 3 years no room to st it up , if you downsize buy Naimuniti2 or similar system itās a no brainer , for now more cds and streaming, later , much later Iāve rediscovered my cd collection , happy Christmas to all

Sal 4070-
Iām single and disabled, so not much assistance is available- although I was telling No quarter that I had bought my harbeth m30.1 from reviews - iwas in a wheelchair then and bought locally - the seller came and set them up 
This year I ādownsizedā by adding a ndx2 - but also traded in 200/202 from attic storage - so 1 less box up there. The streamer is (to me) a giant jukebox. I have no way to download my cdās and for now they are out and about along with lpās - really love/hate - itās difficult to jump up every 12 minutes or so - butā¦ Anyway glad to hear Santa was so good to you this year

Christmas Eve, Santa brought my pre-loved Supercap 2. Couldnāt resist setting it up so at 1am Christmas morning , headphones on, Iām wrapping presents while listening to Gram Parsons, Wes Montgomeryā¦ears agog.
Still got to set the Burndy properly, but wowee, did the Superline sound great with its new power supply. At 2.15 reluctantly went to bed before divorce ensued. I could have stayed up happily playing records

If you can get your cdās ripped and onto a server, you should really enjoy the freedom it will give you ā no getting out of the chair unless you want to! They will sound great on the NDX2. Hopefully you can get it sorted, or get someone to come along and help!
