Hi all,
I recently had a demo of a Rega Elex-r with my Kef LS50s and ordered the Elex-r on the strenght of the demo. There is a 4 week plus lead time on the Elex r it seems.
While browsing on here recently I've noticed that a Naim Nait 5si is more or less the same price as the Elex-r. I always thought that Naim gear cost alot more so never really considered looking at their amps.
Has anyone heard the Nait 5si with Kef Ls50s, or even better compared the Elex-r with the Nait 5si side by side? My main criteria would be good speed and agility with decent bass weight and good clear drum impact. The Elex r certainly had all of these things. Perhaps the Naim might be even better? I have heard some descibe the Naim as being very fast and agile but the bass a bit thin sounding. I would not mind that so much as long as drums were loud and lively and not recessed as I find with my current A19.
Thanks, Chris.
