Power Cables

[PhilP]

Absolutely, as with all things hi-fi there's no substitute for a good home demo! If you can't hear a difference/or it isn't a decent improvement then you can save yourself some money.

Interesting point re the Powerline. Having said that Naim have always put a lot of emphasis into power supplies haven't they?

Yes, systems can certainly sound completely different at home and at the dealers. I could put the "savings" towards a 400 though I'm trying to resist the temptation of another multi-box system. I would really like a totally invisible Hi-Fi

One of frustrating things about Naim is that their components often don't sound good unless you do add one of their power supplies - so a £3k streamer actually ends up costing£6.5k-£9k, a £4k pre-amp really needs a £3k+ power supply, a £2k phono stage needs the same.... Still, at least they do offer those options. The sometimes horrendous buzzing from their linear power supplies (which they have done nothing to address over the years) was another reason for my move to Devialet.

Did use the Powerlines ( 4 x leftovers from my Naim system)with my D Premier ,if it wasn't for the zize of the connector i would have used it today,great cable

Today im using a Nordost Frey 2 with Devialet spesial connector,factory made
Also a great one to use with the Devialet,suberb bass and crystal clear

Hi Petter,

I know it's a bit rude to ask but please could you give me an idea of the cost of the Frey 2 that you had made. No problem if you would rather not say

Thanks,

Philip
