Primare I35 vs Naim Supernait 3


Hello guys. Does anyone have experience with both amplifiers? I would really like hear from someone who have heard or owned both amplifiers. I'm in a dilemma which one to choose as I'm not able to demo any of them.

 

Thanks

i personally would go with the supernait3

if it were the older primare i-30 it would be a very close contest, that class ab integrated was/is outstanding, but the sound quality of the newer primare models using class d amp modules has taken a step back unfortunately - sound is smooth but 'grey-er', less lively/brilliant

Hm that's pretty strange opinion. According to many reviewers the soundstage is very strong attribute of the new Primare's line ...  

@celestial__sound

well you should borrow or buy one and decide for yourself

i am simply reporting what i heard, and i had an i-30 for some years, never went to their newer amps

...and i really don’t care much about ’what the reviewers say’ -- they are just other guys with stereos🙄

@celestial__sound I will take @jjss49’s opinion over any reviewer any day of the week and twice a day on Sunday.
