I have just signed up after having my Reflex M now for 2 months or so. I didnt buy new but good as, along with a PSU1.

I have previously used a Project Tube 2 Phono, then a Rega Fono (which I hated), then the GS.

Lovely kit, great build and has livened up my TT sound across the board. Clear transparent sound, making my AT cart in my modded Rega deck sing. Thankyou so much.

Rega - Relex M - Naim XS2 - Monitor Audio Bronze 5s.

Best regards.

Now looking at a HP amp. Would the Solo be an improvement over the onboard HP amp in the XS2?

Any members here use a Solo with Naim kit?

Welcome to the forum!

It's very likely the Solo (especially the ULDE version with PSU1) will improve on the built in HP amp. If you can take advantage of this forum's loan scheme you can have a home demo to see for yourself!

welcome! Nice to know you’ve had the same experience of the Reflex M as so many of us. I agree with Bob - get in the loan scheme and hear the Solo ULDE for yourself. It’s the only way to truly know. I will say that my listening pleasure from my RP8/Apheta2 - EXP/Reflex M - Solo ULDE - Focal Elear is off the charts good. I catch myself dancing! 

I also use these headphones with Roon and a Ch**d M**o out of my MacBook Pro, and I’ll say that the presentation is very different, but I tend to listen longer from the Solo ULDE. I get really immersed in the music I’m listening to. 

Use the loan scheme. That way you don’t need to have any faith in anything anyone else or any review or magazine or blog says. Just you and the music and whether or not you like it. 

Enjoy!
Mick.
