Tom,

Thats great tell the insurers that some toe-rags blagged the lot, with the chq, you only need spend £10K for a decent system, bank the other £25K and well not worry about cash for a while plus you get a decent sound intot he bargin
One question though, would you put up with the newer gear over what you have now?

 

I'd be surprised if a "new for old" policy worked the way you think it does Tom. Does the new Naim stuff have the same product names as the old olive stuff? If not I can see the insurance company directing you toward your nearest 7Oaks for some nice Arcam gear to replace your Naim kit

They must have some way of handling the fact that a manufacturer (whether hifi or anything else) doesn't make the original product anymore. If all they now make is twice as expensive I don't think new for old works or the insurance company would rapidly go bust.

Michael.

 

I think that overall consumer goods have become cheaper and this should out wiegh, by some margin, the vagaries of the hifi market place

That is the problem but I guess I'd have to live with it. I'm sure I could tune it in to shape

Well my insurance broker assures me my policy is sound and I've been specifing the need for such a policy for the last 11 years so he is well aware of the value of the new and old kit. I belive NB/Polarbear managed to "upgrade" by having a similar policy but heaven forefend that I ever need to use
it, I like my kit and don't want to change.
