Substitute for Naim Naca5 with Nait 5i?


Does anyone have experience with using a speaker cable other than Naim Naca 4/5 with a Nait 5? I have one on the way and would like to use something else temporarily until I can order the Naca5. I understand that "Litz" type cable is specifically recommended against and that Kimber cable is also not a good idea (maybe Kimber is a Litz configuration?). Has anyone found something else to work well or even better the Naca5? Thanks.

I would stick with that naca 5. I had some nordost flatline when I had the nait5i at first. Then I got the naca 5 and it really goes well with the amp. I noticed a big improvement. Naim stuff goes good together. I think Chord might work with Naim but I dont know who has it here in the US. I dont have that amp anymore but actually wish I had not sold it it was really outstanding.
I also agree with Holla..Just get NACA5..The stuff is fabulous..You will not be disappointed.If you have to order cable anyway just order that.If I remember correctly it only retails for $10per ft.
If I wasn't using OCOS on my Dynaudio's!!! NACA5 would be the choice.
North Country Audio has some Rega wire which they are selling for $2 a ft. according to their website. Also, Linn K20 I would think would work as well. Would either be better? I'd look into the Rega wire and terminate yourself or bare wire. Regards, Bill.
NACA indeed is good, however, I find it to be a pain in the balls to work with (TOO STIFF). DNM is superb. Try it.
