I have a question if anyone can help. I understand that the Unity Atom HE uses some parts from Naim's higher priced (higher end) streamers - if I were to get this and use the XLR outputs making it effectively a pre-amp and then add say 2 x NAP 250's for mono blocking into my Monitor Audio PL500'II's (look these up if you don't know what they are as they are extremely rare and HUGE) - would I be getting value for money or is there a better and perhaps more cost effective way of going down the Naim route? Thanks
Hi Nelson, I have played the Naim Atom HE with a power amplifier several times, although not Naim power amplifiers. The result was ok but not wow, when I added a preamp there was a much more satisfying result that brought more calmness to the sound. Especially with the PL 500, I think that the combination with the Naim NSC 222 will make everything more accurate. The Atom alone with power amplification came across as hardness and killer. Of course, since I have not been able to combine the Atom with the NAP 250, I cannot say anything about this experience. I hope you find a dealer who can supply you with both devices to try out. Grtz Phil
@@Philear4124 Mr Sir Professor of all things Hi-FI - I am indebted to you for your reply - thank you so much - this is the perfect answer and makes so much sense - I shall be having a hime Dem soon and will report back with what I discover - thanks once more
Hey, prima, de klank van Audia, maar je merkt wel dat het hun instapper is, iets commerciëler is maar dus zeker niet zo als bv. een Rotel het doet., duwt iets meer op het laag dan zijn grotere broers fls9 en 10. Maar bijvoorbeeld met een monitor kan ik dit als aangenaam beschouwen. Dus in bepaalde combinaties te proberen. Ook bij deze een kleinere maar wel alu ab waar je bij veel andere merken iets in plastic van 5 euro. Grtz Phil
Dommage que le traitement réseau et pas super. Changer votre câble rj45 par un nordost heimdall 2 et vous verrez une très très grande différence. C'est un minimum pour votre système audio.
Hé Linngiosg, merci pour le conseil, un nouveau câble Internet est sur la liste de souhaits pour l'avenir. Cependant, le Nordost est au-dessus du budget que j'ai en tête. Cordialement Phil
Sounds Great! Love the 700i V2
Hi, I am also a big fan of the 700i, it is a pity that it will not have a successor in the North Collection.

Dat hoor je meteen MOON vol geluid Audia Flight fl3s - flauw geluid . of zijn het de monitors
De Moon en deze Audia zitten in een anders prijssegment, dan kan je zo iets wel verwachten.
Grtz Phil
Leuk weer, ik zie dat je de audia flight ook op de koffie hebt, hoe doet die het?.
