Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
The SN2 has been discontinued. I just decided to go back to Naim by replacing my Lumin X1 with Naim NDX2/SN2. I wanted to duplicate the incredible ease of use of my Naim Nova with better performance. I decided the SN3 didn't offer enough for me to pay the price in cost and wait time.

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
The SN2 is a wonderful integrated, especially with Harbeth. I originally had 30.1 but will eventually order the 30.2 to go with it in a second system. The SN2/30.1 combo won best of show several years ago. I’m sure you will love it.

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
I used to buy cars and keep them 10 years. When I hit my mid 40's I realized that at that pace I'd not own very many more cars! So I started doing 3 year leases I just shot you a PM about the ethernet. But I agree with those sentiments; I enjoyed by SN2 based system for about 6 years, and only about 6 months ago got the itch to upgrade. Stayed with Naim SN2/NDX2 is a very very nice system with a nice low box count. I really hope that you enjoy it!!

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
Naim recently had a one day sale so I'm swapping my NDX/XPS for ND555/555PS. As Nelson Pass once said, audiophiles are members of the lunatic fringe. Old dogs like me never learn. Back in the day I got rid of my Naim NDS because I didn't like having to deal with Transit screws on the NDS and the Naim Fraim it required..
Now I've got an ND555 with transit screws and the knowledge that my Quadraspire rack probably isn't good enough. Then there is the Supernait 2 and the Harbeth's that can't match the Naim 500 series kit.
My wife of 56 years kept me grounded and w/o her I'm like a kid in a candy store with a pocket full of money.Bud<br>

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
I just bought a Nd555 etc at that sale also. I loved my NDS 8 years ago and have been through several players since then. I always felt they were a sideways move but for 1/4 the price. So I switched. So now with how I know Naim is with their 500 series components, I had to give the ND555 a try. Once I get it and it gets broken in I'll let everybody know what I think - good or bad. Did I go for what I think I remember or ... was the NDS just the first digital player that i heard was worth a .... I honestly have no I idea. I'm so lucky in this business climate to be able to find out.

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
Thanks Joe! I was in the "lets keep the box count low" camp for many years with Naim and enjoyed their integrated amps. Then one day I decided to try their separates, just to see how "the other half" lives. Progressed from 252/SuperCap and the 250DR power amp, quickly to the 300DR power amp, and now the preamp will be their best (save the Statement), the 552. 552/300 should be nice! The good thing about Naim is that there IS a market for used equipment.

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
Banana connections for speakers, and DIN for the rest. You get used to it
I keep my stack off to the side -- not between the speakers -- so the placement of the speaker connections at the back of the amp is irrelevant. I just prefer this arrangement to the 'stuff between the speakers look' that is pretty prevalent. The Brits all seem to be of the view that its best to avoid the stack between the speakers.
I stick with Naim cables and interconnects, so it's easy. But there are plenty of DIN interconnects from other brands.Sources: Naim ND555/555PS | Roon Nucleus | Naim Soltstice Special Edition turntable and phono stage

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
Not sure on the dealer question. I never had a SN2, so I really can’t say. Just now getting into NAIM in a big way. Love the toe tapping musicality of NAIM. I plan to add a Hi CAP DR, Streamer and XPS PSU.
The SN3 sounds fantastic out of the box. We are trying it on the Fyne’s.

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
I still love my SN2 and can imagine how good the SN3 sounds. I loved the 30.1 and SN2 combo. Curious what you feel is the best combo overall.

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
There were a couple of dealers in the LA area that won best in show using Harbeth 30.1's/30.2's. One used an LFD amp and the other used a Naim SN2. Back in the day my wife's favorite system was Naim SN1 into Harbeth 30.1's. The first time she heard it she turned to me and said "now that is perfect!". That's the first time I ever heard an unsolicited comment about our audio system.
After several years of trying to find satisfaction in something else, I'm back to Naim/Harbeth.
FedEx just delivered ND555/555PS/Super Lumina DIN/DIN/a couple of PowerLines.
It's replacing NDX/XPS DR/Ansuz cablesBud<br>

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
I agree, at least in part as that's what I did. Had an NDS with my SN2, and actually committed to the ND555 while I still owned the SN2. But got a great deal on a slightly used 252/SCDR combo just as the ND555 was arriving. ZERO shame in getting Naim's best source and building from there!!

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
I’ve had a Hegel in the past. Nothing wrong with it. I like the Naim sound and enjoy it over the Hegel if I had a choice. Hegel never gave me the PRAT that Naim gear does. At least not in my system. Truly enjoying my SN3 with a HCDR paired with an NDX2 and power foundation and cabling by Ansuz. The noise floor is so black it’s spooky

Re: New! SUPERNAIT 3
I had the Mainz DTC and sold it along with my DTC cables. I couldn’t sleep nights thinking about the amount of money I had spent on them. I went back to a Mainz D8 but then traded it for an A2.
i had just bought an audiophile grade switch and had no interest in the Ansuz Power Switch. My long time dealer and friend told me it’s the power section that makes the difference. I bought a D2 power switch and found that it was like getting my MainZ DTC back.
So people need to consider the power switch as a device that can improve the whole system.Bud<br>
