Is it possible to attach a surround processor/amp to a Naim active system without compromising the main stereo music system? I am tempted by DVD (telly is between SBL's), but wonder if I can add the other channels only when I need them. As a related issue, can a subwoofer be patched in to an active system just for watching ground-shaking sci-fi DVD's?

Yes.I have active SBL,s for the moment as rear surround sound speakers.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Festive hooch

SBLs, as rear surround speakers, surely not, must be pretty awesome though...

...the thread entitled "To DVD or not to DVD"

That should give you some ideas.

Hi,

I have just added a Yamaha DSP E800 to my naim passive system (CDi/102/180/Hicap/SBL) and am very impressed with it.

My Linn Kan's need proper positioning to get best rear sound on Sound org wall brackets - I plan to try some bipolar Mission's because the rear's are immediately behind the sofa to see if they create a greater sense of space.

Hope this is helpful,

Jonathan
