That is still a sad indictment of PFM members.

My top tip would be get some NVA speaker cable. I was using naim amp into epos speakers via Linn K400 (it sounded good at the dealers :doh: ). My first step into NVA was getting some LS3, and home auditioning vs naca5, chord odyssey, and some super expensive van den huh stuff S/H. LS3 was easily superior, and i've since upgraded to LS6, which I still think is probably the best bang/buck of any upgrade so far. just my 2p.

I've had similar Naim set up, Nait xs, cd5x, flatcap, naca5 and some other bits. Now I have P90sa, A60mk1, old phono2 and AP10P. Cables are ssc and ls5. I don’t miss Naim bass umph and dark'ish sound at all.
