I have an I32. You say that it was a worthwhile upgrade going to the i35. Could you expand on what the differences were and how the sound quality has improved? Nothing wrong with my i32 but you know what it's like.......is it worth replacing or is it just more of the same?

thanks,

Boycie
As you say - nothing wrong with the I32. Fabulous amp. The I35 has a similar character but is more powerful and more refined with greater insight . It is not a subtle improvement and I had no regrets making the change. I also recognise that had I kept the I32 I would not be missing much in the greater scheme of things. The I32 outperformed the Naim Supernait 2 when I auditioned it. No mean feat. The I35 is just better still.

Thank you for taking the time to reply Boris. As you say, nothing wrong with the i32 and I much preferred it to a Naim I tried before buying it. I don't really need more power as I never get past 25 on the volume now as my recent purchase of some Wharfedale Evo 4.4'2 must be slightly more efficient than my previous speakers. I think in the current climate, that I'll defer a change and enjoy the music.....for now.

Come the time you might then consider the I25. All the extra refinement of UFPD2 but lower power than the I35.
