Thanks Dave ;-) it's all about having fun and connecting with peers who share the journey. And here is quite a nice place when people try a little to bring the best of their experience, (and have a laugh doing it!)

Thanks Dave, that sums it up quite nicely. And as I have a life, I have to say that I am not coming back to the thread every 3 hours to see if there was another new idea brought to the table. ;-) Btw, I reverted back to the naim links last night and was able to reproduce the change. But that's...

Darth Vader, I have a LP12 and an Avondale AAA5 to compare with the SB+ (and tested a ACD3 from a friend who bought one a couple of years ago). There is a clear difference but it is not as big as you write (for me!). I got a important improvement putting it on a well setuped support. I will...

Whatsnext, you are right and this may explain some of my findings. Naca5 are multistrand and Dnm are single strand wires. Joep, about the cleaning effect, the previous wires and the connectors were cleaned every 6wks so this discounts this effect for me. As for my findings being magical...

Well, I don't write that much on pinkfish (read a lot though!) but last night's experience is worth writing about... I've been through a long journey in the last 12 years that involved building a fully naimed system and then moving to avondale audio (the common story...). This system as...

I use compact 7es2 in a room your size and they are wonderful. I use to have them well in the room but found that they were better closer to the wall (12-16 inches). YMMV. This is the first bit of kit I found myself never wanting to change. The avondale stuff did the same when it came...

B&W DM603 - nothing to remember... Magnepan 1.5 - wow but WAF factor was poor (180cm with grey fabric) Sonus Faber concerto - tight and beautifully made. not very agile Harbeth Compact 7es2 - wow! these have been here for 3 years and will stay... the sound the can make improves with the...

Folk: Kate & Anna McGarrigle Classical : Angela Hewitt, Ben Hepnner Lorena mckennitt p.s. Another vote for "la botine souriante". Those who know them should listen to "les batinses" and to "Mes Aïeux".

;-) me too!

what about the size of the cap6 vs the mcap? would it fit in a case where everything is fited tight (2 mono ncc200 and mcap in nap140 cases)?

my current system: Naim CD2 Naim Nac102/NAPSC/Hi-Cap Naim Nap250 "chrome bumper" Rega ear/senn. HD580 Harbeth Compact7 es2 Quadraspire 4 Notice many CD2s in the descriptions. How is it we never hear about this naim model? Congrats Tony, I nice please this will be! :)
