AXPONA: Naim, Dynaudio Speakers

[amirm]

This was a super dark room. I have brightened the images substantially. Contrasting with the dark and uninviting room, was a very pleasant host that gave me the ipad to pick what I wanted to play.

They played an LP rip that sounded very nice but dragged down by some groove noise.

The Dynaudio Evidence Platinum speakers did well and the overall sound was quite nice.

I'm $peechless$$.

I'll continue to feign satisfaction with the dross I have, thank you.

What you talking about? $270K for amplification sounds pretty reasonable to me!!!

Ok, I think I finally figured out the tower thing between the tower amps is the preamp.

I'll continue to feign satisfaction with the dross I have, thank you.

C'mon now, everyone knows $11.5k for the power supply for a network player, is the bare minimum for decent fidelity.

Naim seems to be a mob that either gets it mighty right, or all wrong. The two locals who get very good sound both use Naim - yet at the Sydney show the Naim room was appallingly bad - everything that will put a casual passerby off "hifi" forever, the overdone PA in the pub type of thing ...

For some reason when I hear the big Dynaudio's at Axpona, the high volume level makes the high frequencies too much for me.
