    Re: New amp day.... Aavik i-280

    That's me. Tyler came out to Arizona and packed up my Naim kit and installed the Aavik kit.

    Anyone interested in Naim 500 or Raidho XT-2 speakers give Tyler a call. He's selling my kit on...

    Re: New amp day.... Aavik i-280

    I just replaced my reference Naim 500 system with Aavik S-280/D-280/I-280.

    Fantastic sound. Much more user friendly. Far more attractive appearance. Twenty pound devices vs forty pound devices....

    Re: Ethernet switch box

    If you have the Ansuz PowerSwitch it will power your Ansuz cables plus act as a Network switch.

    Not only will it do those two functions but it will also improve the quality of your network.

    Re: Aavik U-280 Pre-Out Mute Option

    My new Aavik S280 and U280 have arrived and are awaiting a BNC terminated digital cable. I should have it for the weekend. I also ordered an Ansuz X2 power cable. I’ll use a Naim power chord for the...

    Re: Aavik U-280 Pre-Out Mute Option

    I need to reduce the box count of my system. I tried a combination of Naim Atom HE/NAP 250 and came close enough to accepting it as a solution that I'd talked to my Naim dealer about selling my 500...

    Yup, I've ordered a U-280 And an S-280

    I was interested in the Pre-Out option to use to drive my Naim Atom HE headphone amp. The HE is completely standalone but I wanted to use the better front...

    Aavik U-280 Pre-Out Mute Option

    With Mute turned off on Pre-Out of the new Aavik amplifiers (U-280), is the output fixed or variable?

    Re: NAIM Uniti Atom Headphone Edition

    I have my HE connected to a Naim 250 DR amp for a super 2-box system. It is going to replace a 7-box Naim 500 system.
    The curious thing is that I was listening to headphones most of the time while...
  9. Re: NAIM Uniti Atom Headphone Edition Amp And Focal Clear Mg Phones In The House!

    You have a great system. The HE with Clear cans would make a terrific package.
    I'm hoping the Atom HE will work as a preamp for me. If it does, I can dispose of a lot of assets. Seven boxes to two...
  10. Re: NAIM Uniti Atom Headphone Edition Amp And Focal Clear Mg Phones In The House!

    I have the Atom HE with Utopias. After trying the Atom HE I kept it and sold my Violectric V281 HP amp. The Atom HE is a joy to use.

    I tried various headphone cables including Nordost Heimdall 2's...

    It depends on the quality of your network. I prefer wired. I have my Atom HE, Nucleus and Naim ND555 connected to my Ansuz PowerSwitch. The best cable connected to the Nucleus. Even more important...

    Re: NAIM Uniti Atom Headphone Edition

    I have one with Utopias. I gave up my Violectric V281 headphone amp after my first experience with the HE. It's an amazing device that checks all the boxes, sounds great and is a joy to use. It works...

    Re: Headphone Evaluation

    Like you, I am retired. I've spent the last few years spending (and wasting) money looking for my end game audio system.
    I have one bit of advice. Don't let sound quality influence you over things...

    Re: Headphones, got any favorites?

    The cable cost $800 and supports both balanced and single ended. An extension is available for around $600 (when I bought mine).

    Heimdall's were recommended to me some time ago by my Naim/Focal...

    Re: Headphones, got any favorites?

    I just replaced Audeze LCD-4’s with Utopia’s. I loved the sound of the LCD-4’s but the design was poor so far as managing those heavy things. They were always sliding off my head.
    I still have an...

    Re: Abyss vs Focal Utopia

    I own both Sennheiser 800S and Audeze LCD-4’s. I like the sound of the LCD-4’s but the combination of weight and poor ergonomic design prevents me from keeping them planted on my head.

    It's been a pleasure dealing with Mike. The best part of it is he COMMUNICATES. He once replied to an eMail from me while he was waiting for a flight back from Europe.
