My mother bought a very modest Naim system from Geoff years ago but was always given the five star treatment. He knew that he was never going to make a fortune from her - she just wanted a simple to use system to sit back and enjoy for her well-earned retirement.

I remember suggesting a speaker cable upgrade to Naim NACA4 a few years ago. Geoff actually drove over to my mum's house, installed the cable himself and also spent time trying some tweaks to the system. All that for little more than 100 quid ...
