Naim Audio system owners - What speakers are you using with Naim?


Asking for a friend, seriously. Ha!

I recommended Harbeth 30.2, Revel Studio2, possibly B&W or Fyne Audio.

Any other models? Looking for both stand mount and floor standing speakers.

Just before the Covid19 quarantine hell, I was in a shop helping a retailer setup my Verdant Blackthorn 1 speakers which are a standmount.  We had them paired with Naim Nait XS3 and sounded great.  We switched between the Nait and a pair of MC275s bridged mono and it was very good sound.  

I would definitely recommend Naim gear with my Blackthorn speaker.  

@rfc i have personally listened to Naim and the Spendor D7.2 and found it dark.  If you like a warmer, darker sound, great!

Naim is designed to be paired with Focal which are brighter speakers.  it is warmer amplification.  Spendor is not a bright speaker.  Nor is the Audiovector.  I might look at a brighter amp as you are clearly leaning toward neutral to warm speakers.  

A Hugo TT2 will definitely help.  It is brighter than Naim’a DAC.  I have not had a chance to test this sort of setup with Chord.
