Perhaps the biggest reason not to buy Naim is simply that it is stupidly
overpriced. For sure, when I did have Naim gear it performed fine and
was bullet-proof reliable, but the price even then was silly.

I don't know if things have changed recently, but the problem with
Naim's (and Linn's) active offerings was always that they used general
purpose full-range (ie. expensive) power amps. They completely missed
one of the most important advantages of going active, which is that you
can use relatively inexpensive power amps that are matched to the drive
units they are connected to. The bottom line is that Naim (and Linn)
were always more about marketing than engineering.
