Did you do the test? I'd be
Naim power amps have a low pass filter at the input stage, so I doubt
they can be driven into instability.
The output stage can become unstable if the 'wrong' speaker cables are
used. Naim insist that you use a minimum of 3.5m and their NACA5
cable, but there are many other cables that are equal

Frequency response and colouration isn't the issue. Naim power
The debate seems to be whether a Naim power amp delivers a flat
frequency response when driven direct or whether the Naim preamps
compensate in some way for inherent colourations imposed by the power
amp.
Naim have never been renound for completely transparent reproduction
and the 'Naim Sound' is
I think you're being given poor advice.
If you only have a single source, connecting the TP directly to the
NAP250 will give a better result. Knock the TP attenuators down by
-10db or more to give you a sensible volume range.
When I had Naim kit here, I tried an SB+ directly to the power amps a
All the advice I'm getting indicates that if you like the Naim sound (I
do!), it needs to be Naim all the way...
I'm currently looking at a NAC202, FLATCAP2X, and a NAP250.

It's a long time since I used Naim gear, but back in the 1990's their
basic power amp circuit relied on the input signal being
bandwidth-limited. That's why they didn't work well with
Hi all,
I'm considering buying a new NAP250 as an upgrade to my existing
NAC112/NAP150 combo. I would like to drive this directly from the
unbalanced outputs on my Transporter, and wondered if anyone else was
using this combination. As there have been several generations of the
NAP250, it's not c
