Had a dem of the kinki 3. It was with a Majik LP12, kk1 and Klimax 350A, and compared it to the Naim stageline with hicap.
The Kinki 3 was better at tunedem, whereas the Naim was bit more refined but wasnt as involving. Also the Naim is considerably more expensive.
Overall the Kinki 3 is exceptional value for money, and would be my choice.
So congratulations Fredrik a good result.

Thank you, anthony!

I haven't yet heard the Naim Stageline with Hicap. How much does that combination cost?

The stageline is around £260 and can be supplied from a Naim preamp, but what I listened to was around £1300

:!:

Then I'll make sure you get an opportunity to hear Slipsik 5. It costs around half of that Naim setup.

And 'refined' is a good way to describe it, in comparison with KINKI3.
