Interested in finding a NAIM dealer on the east coast.


I'm in Saratoga County, in upstate NY. I left a VM for Naim North America early in the week, but no call back. I'm in the customer service industry, and I must confess that I have zero tolerance for this type of thing. So I figured I'd turn to my Audiogon brothers (and sisters) for some info (-: Cheers, Don

2/2: I am aware that Audio Doctor in NJ is a dealer, but I'm looking for other suggestions. Thanks so much!

A/V Therapy have some very nice brands. I had never taken Naim too seriously, but I'm surprised by one thing I'm seeing. The dealers I have found online (mostly western US) are definitely Brick and Mortar dealers that do a good deal of video. Not a huge deal, but I was surprised to see Naim absent from the more niche 2-channel dealers. My guess is getting the line requires a big financial commitment. In other words, you have to sell a few Sony TV's to afford it. 

Just realized Overture in DE is a dealer. I used to buy gear from them back in the day...really nice shop. They have Harbeth as well. tomic601...indeed! I was watching a video on You Tube from Upscale Audio. Kevin was describing the fact that Naim does not skimp on transformers. I believe he described them as B * TCHIN (-:

Ideally, I'd want to hear it with a Harbeth, or similar British lower (86db) sensitivity speaker. Considering the XS-3 or the Supernait 3. Thanks!

Thanks so much to all who made a positive contribution to this thread. I don't think I would have ended up at A/V Therapy if it wasn't for the suggestion. oddiofyl...agree 100% on A/V Therapy being a great bunch to deal with. John knows his stuff, and is certainly having a blast doing what he does. I ended up buying the XS3, which I will hopefully be listening to later tonight. Will be starting the break in process with an old Sony CD/DVD player. Cheers, Don
