Hello, I see the Muso listed on your .com site as arriving later this month. Assuming you will have it for sale here too, could you give me a euro price including delivery? Many thanks.

Hi again, Naim were claiming most retailers would have stock of the Muso today, just wondering if there is any ETA yet?

Hi Darwin.

Glad you got the unit!

Once you have had a listen over the next few days please do let us know how it performs. We are busting to get one in for the store to get it up and running.

Hey guys, so here is my mini review of the Muso. Please go easy as I'm no audiophile...
Starting with the obligatory unboxing pic:

This thing is heavy, but I guess that's reassuring in the world of speakers.

It comes very well packed with shrinkwrap covering the most of the unit. Here it is with
the shrinkwrap removed and the contents of the box:

There is an unusual curve running through the speaker grille. The build quality is just incredible, and the large metal
volume wheel on top is a delight to use.

Setup and initial impressions

The online manual is more comprehensive than the quick start guide, so I started there.
My setup is a little unusual in that I use airplay streaming from a Windows 8 tablet with an App
called Airfoil (I can stream audio from any application this way).
Most people will probably use an iPod/iPad and do the setup using the Muso app.
In my case, I had to setup the muso with a wireless connection. It broadcasts it's own network (which you connect to)
and from there I configured my home network settings (SSID and key) and then rebooted the Muso.

I started Airfoil and connected successfully to the speaker as an airplay device. I fired up Spotify, played a tune
and....nothing. I then plugged in my iPod to the Muso to see if it was the speaker or the network and to my relief the
Muso came to life. The sound is just incredible. I put on the new Maroon 5 album (feel free to slag my taste in music)
and wow, the rumbling from the bass is just unreal. To put it in context, I also have an Audyssey South of Market dock
which I thought was the last word in powerful sound, but this puts it completely in the shade. The bass does not overwhelm the mids or highs either, the sound is absolutely crystal clear. Back to my network problem, I tried again and it suddenly worked so happy days!

The last step was to download the Muso app from the google play store and it found the Muso first time. From here
you can listen to Internet Radio stations or configure many aspects of the Muso including lighting, audio and firmware updates.

Is it worth the asking price? It's a lot of moola, but I would say a resounding yes.

One more pic:

PS Apologies as the pics got truncated here

As ever top service from you guys and I'll be back!
