Re: Sexy! !
Sure is.
As someone who has owned NAIM and likes a lot of what they do, their prices though have gone into Crazy-Town the last couple of years. Enough to keep me from buying them and spending elsewhere."We are all billionaires because of the huge piles sweet dough rolling in from our participation in the ongoing campaign to suck your collective brains through a stirrer-straw." - PTA Editorial Staff

Re: Sexy! !
We were told about this change coming years ago. No more goofy naim only connections. Proper XLR and rca now. This is the Focal influence and making NAIM more universally attractive.

Re: Sexy! !
Not sexy to my eyes. More like a Christmas cracker - wide at each end and pinched in at the middle! And far too costly too. Still no AES/ EBU input and, by comparison with its competition a very small LED screen. Although Naim still offers power amps for this device to feed, power amps seem to be a dying breed with far more exceptionally good integrateds or integrateds with DACs becoming available.
Sources - NAD M50.2 (streamer, CD player, CD ripper, hard drive music store)
Amplification - NAD M33 all-in-one, NAD M12 preamp (in reserve), Atma-Sphere Class D monos
Speakers - Avantgarde Duo XD, Avantgarde Duo (2006) - both aesthetically modified
