I wont too up grade my tuner but what one i have a o5 at the moment

The 01 is the obvious choice but if you value remote operation, forget it.........

The 05 is a very good tuner but the 01 brings another dimension to music and speach.............

I use my 05 in multiple rooms, so the remote control is valuble for me....

Add a Hiline to your 05 a very big improvement IMO

Hi, I'm using a Green Hornet from TomTom Audio on an 02 to good effect - removes a lot of grain and drops the background noise level significantly. I have a Hiline too too, but the Hornet is GVFM.

Hello, the GREEN HORNET interconnect sounds interesting to me. Does it use the gold or silver platet pins on the DIN plug made by NEUTRIK? Thankx

Solid advice, costs about as much as the tuner...

The Hiline would be a good upgrade for Terry's tuner. And a easy one to demo.
A lot cheaper than another tuner and Fraim level.

...but not competitive with an 01, IMO

Have you already got a Ron Smith Galaxie 14 or 17 aerial? If not, you wil probably get more of an improvement than from changing to an 01 on the existing aerial.

Agreed - good point!

I have had my 01 tuner since 1986. About a year ago I saw one for sale on ebay selling more than the price I paid for it! I understand the 01 had production problems so the 02 was born. I don't know why the others if they are degrades. If I were looking in the market today for a quality tuner to match or better the 01, then I would be interested in Magnum Dynolab. Problem is I can't find a distributor in the UK to hear a demo. Anyone else know of another competitor ? The tuner is a great source. If Naim produced another reference tuner tomorrow I would buy it now.

Not as I recall - the 02 was an all-in-one box and intended for a different niche.

The 01 and 02 were discontinued in the same year. The 101 was replaced by the 02.

I think we would need a few more than 2.

In fact there is theoretical demand - which might evaporate once a product was developed - price (considerably more than the NATO1) and availability of FM in the long-term are the 2 big factors to be weighed against the considerable development and production costs.

as naim make the best am sure they would be demand for such a best kind regards tel ps long live fm

Any cable that 'removes' anything isn't what I'd advise......
