SimAudio i3.3 vs Naim SuperNait


I have an NAD 375BEE currently powering my Dynaudio Focus 220s and REL Stadium II. I'm looking to upgrade the integrated.

I love SimAudio with Jazz and Rock and the Naim with Classical and Acoustic Music.

Wondering if anyone has done a side by side comparison of the i3.3 and SuperNait?

Thanks!

How about the i3.3 vs. Naim XS? Have done that one. To me, the Sim is more detailed and perhaps a little lean (I hate to use the term clinical) with a very tight bottom end. The Naim has that PRat thing going - nice pace and rhythm, but lacks in most other areas, with a loose bottom end, and odd top end (seems like you are missing something).

Very different pieces in my view - almost opposites.

I'd shoot for something right in between. I'm using a Pathos Classic one MkIII
