Rumor has it it's pretty good.
A pity it is so limited in features and the analog inputs are apparently not as good as the digital.

mbnx01,
I've been playing my Job INTegrated for the past 4 days. It sounds great. Much better than I expected. Big full sound, tremendous 3D, clear and open sound stage with a slightly sweet presentation. It's perfect.
Joe
Which speakers ?
JBL 4367 and SF Strads.

Job INTegrated

I bought a JOB and then sold it on . Much prefer Naim Supernait 2.

Yes it was the JOB power amp I rejected not the integrated. Whilst the 225 sounded impressive to begin with it became uncomfortable to listen to. As far as power output is concerned it depends on the sensitivity of the speakers. IMO the NAIM Supernait 2 whilst considerably more expensive,, its SQ is far superior, of course it all depends on speaker matching. I found the 225 sounded considerably different according to the speakers being used whilst the NAIM was more consistent. I also sold on the NAIM because I only need a power amp and my 20 year old Class AB amplifier sounds as good, one of the designers is a friend who can update if necessary.

Disbeliever,
I also had the Supernait 2 and loved it.
At the same time I had a Line Magnetic LM-219IA tube integrated. The LM-219IA destroyed the Naim and most anything else but was HOT, heavy an not as powerful. It was just too much so I eventually sold it.
I kind of wish I still had the Naim. I convinced a friend to buy one soon after I bought mine. He still has and LOVES his Supernait 2, but I had him buy the Teddy Pardo power supply for it instead of the Naim to save money and I feel it's just as good or better.

Joeinid . You probably know from my past posts that I have no interest in tube or Class D amps . Has anyone compared Naim Supernait 2 with TP 180A ,I am told there is a review of 180a in this months Hi-Fi Plus mag. which I will try to read tomorrow. 6 Moons reviews do not interest me. Just read the 180a review CT says not as refined as later NAIT amps. So if you can afford one you can not go wrong with the excellent Naim Supernait 2.

Guys,
did you run an all-Naim system ? What cabling did you use?
I have never been interested in any Naim product until I bought the Naim SuperNait 2, I would never use an all Naim system. Cable use in this context is meaningless as are the ridiculous DIN sockets still used by Naim.
Disbeliever,Was that a Job stereo amp or the INTegrated? They do sound a little different and not exactly the same.
As for the Supernait 2, the price point is much higher. I had one and liked it but it needed the ext power supply to shine, further increasing cost. Different than Job, maybe not truly better.
I think the INTegrated will be great based on trusted friends opinions.

pretty good intel over on the 'Gon.

Any users? I placed my order, now I wait.
Joe
Keep me posted- Joe.
I may be in the market for a killer integreted.
fantja,
Will do. I am not sure when to expect the INTegrated. When I checked out and paid, shipping was quoted as 2-6 weeks. I am not sure if they are in stock or if there is some vacation time in Geneva. I hope to receive an update Mon/Tue.
Joe
