Naim - to DIN or not to DIN

To cut a long story short I've just added DIN connectors to one end of my interconnects that go to my Naim 5i mkII. The other end has Eichmann Silver Bullet RCA's to connect to my sources.

The results
- much improved dynamics
- much improved spatial imaging and clarity

My first kick at the cat was Eichmanns on both ends of the interconnect, which proved beneficial, but adding the DIN proved to be the icing on the cake.

The DIN connectors were nothing special - metal jacket with silver plated brass pins - cost about $7 each from EBAY. Much less than the Eichmans at $140 for a set of 4

If you own any Naim gear you would be missing out if you are using standard RCA interconnects

Do yourself a favour and get into some DIN connectors ASAP

I would imagine similar results would be attainable from XLR/Eichman hybrid interconnects also.

BTW - my interconnects are solid silver twisted pair conductors with no shield, which makes the task of connecting both the Eichmann's and the DIN very easy. I'm not sure I'd attempt this with shielded cable.

Simply amazing!
