Naim Mu-so QB

[drummerman]

I had the misfortune of being dragged through John Lewis again to look at Washing Machines and Fridge Freezers.

On the way there I had a quick glance at Naims latest Mu-so.

It is tiny!

Did'nt hear it unfortunately.

So, all-in-all a pretty pointless thread but I was just amazed how little that thing is. Even a Mu-so full size and Zeppelin seemed like giants.

Good looking too. Like it.

. Yes, nice and compact. I suspect easier to site in most homes than the original. And the magazine said it wasn't the best, though still vg.

It 'only' streams at 2.4ghz rather than having dual bands as even a cheap CCA has.

Not sure how much of a problem that is.

. Me neither! Have no idea what that means.

PS. Something about wireless frequencies?

Wi-fi is either 2.4ghz or 5ghz. The 2.4ghz shares the frequency with other domestic goods, like microwaves and telephones. So there is always the possibility of interference and a lack of available bandwidth. However is does have a very good range. The better frequency is therefore the 5ghz one. However it has a much shorter range, so for a multiroom installations, it may not reach all the rooms on a consistant basis.

Thanks, jj. Very clear.

As I was typing I recalled seeing said frequency on a router box once! I still think of hifi as mostly analogue with he odd CD thrown in, so am troubled by the merging of computer technology with audio. I am trying to adapt with a bit of Qobuz and Squeezebox, however.

It sounds very good - for its size which is indeed tiny.
