don't know if that will reach Christmas number one or not. But It has potential

Yeah the price is/was way ahead of inflation, but wages are alot different as well material costs, I dont pretend to know there full costs of manufacture but it does feel that someone in a board room just picked a price from thin air. I think it was little too on the nose, 1400 and I think they...

plenty did I think.....the price you pay for jumping on collectable items I guess

had a sugden swapped it for the naim be prepared for the energy bill if you listen alot. 400watts (there and there about) as soon as you turn it on. How ever it did sound great with my Klipsch heresy's actually they sound alot like naim.

still far cry from the RRP.

Marantz m1, can be had for 799, im sure you can push the extra 50..... or 650 used in great condition but up to you and what features you deem to be important to you

Did I respond to you if I did thats a mistake! pretty sure you have misread that post entirely and or ive missed some grammar, or a return (most likely) ",like Al im off" in other words im outer here/I give up just like you where/was/are. And was directed toward the OP that was being bullish...

I don’t know anyone on here.

what? Dude you're getting more for less! what you arguing about im agreeing with you! yet I'd still take an NAD 316bee v2 and a wim pro over this audiolab, and have change for speakers But if you're going to be a co%k about things like AL im off.

"Technical improvements" needs to be taken with a pinch of salt. Great thats its cheaper as "improvements" normally means more expensive. I would think of it more like this Improved at the price point/ the same for less

Watched 5mins and the difference can be heard between his phono stage and the Fosi in some instances. But all I hear is an incredibly thin sound across the board making possible differences impossible to hear.

I don’t think so no not by what the OP is discribing . Naim have know imbalance issues that would be easy to diagnose by simply swapping the speakers around. If doesn’t follow the speaker I’d be looking the volume pot first

Ive had few naim amps/pre's and they all have this problem, at a volume where its just bouncing off the min mark they can be really bad. Take it just over 8 o'clock and it will all level out, strangly I dont have this problem with my nait 50 so lucked out there!, but my superuniti had it my dac...

First port of call is swap the speakers around, left to right, it will tell you if there is a problem with the speakers or the pre/amps. BUT this sounds like good old Naim unbalanced volume pot at lower listening levels, as the volume gets turned up the imbalance disappears, its inherent in...

Well science will say and I agree it's just fact. If an item/product measures 20 20, regardless of price, those differences should be apparent, so the " it's not hi res enough' doesn't really hold sway in my opinion. BUT!BUT! there is also scientific practice and are brains are very very...
