This time the guys remember something very close to Mike's heart – the original early eighties Naim NAIT integrated amplifier.
David is fed up with being told about Mike's 'red light NAIT', so hopefully he'll shut up about it now!
With less power than most headphone amplifiers, a cheapskate volume knob and balance control, and annoying DIN sockets, it's not everyone's idea of hi-fi perfection. But the guys agree that there's still something very special about it.
Each episode of Hi-Fi Riff features their unedited, unexpurgated views about all manner of weird and wonderful hi-fi designs. Mike has a wealth of knowledge from his hi-fi retail years, and David has written about hi-fi for thirty years. Now Editor-in-Chief of StereoNET, he's picked up a few things along the way.
So brew up a cuppa or crack open a can, and relax and enjoy some one-take hi-fi riffing – and please leave your comments below. Oh, and don’t forget to hit the Subscribe button, this one goes up to eleven!
The eighties-tastic title tune is called ‘UFO/Mike’s Jumper’, and used with the express permission of our old pal and rights holder Simon Lythe.
