Hi Joolz,
Since it's from a friend and since you're getting it cheap I would go ahead and buy the Naim then see which amp you prefer and sell the other. Assuming you get the Naim cheap you'll be able to sell it to cover shipping + other costs.
The Naim's a great amp, but not very powerful, and not suited to loud rock especially if the speakers are not too efficient. I have no idea how it compares to your current amp ... but if you don't like it you'll sell it very easily. It's not like you're buying some wierd unheard of brand. That's what I'd do.
