System Pics 2005

Posted by: Steve Toy on 05 November 2004

Further to Geoff P's marvellous pics on This thread, a new year and a new thread to post pics of your pride and joy (all-Naim or at least part-Naim) awaits so that we can all get nit-picky about placement issues - to your ultimate sonic benefit! Smile

Regards,

Steve.

I like how your Target stand has been relegated to the status of a magazine rack. Big Grin


It's an Apollo rack actually but yeah I get it! Big Grin

Can someone please explain how to insert a photo directly into the thread - all I seem to manage is the Image Shack version?

Nice pics Jon. I see you don't have the 282 now.

I've been away for a while, haven't seen the outcome of your trial of the 282 and 250.2, did you post?

Hi bazz thanks, and welcome back!

Yes I posted my experiences on cracky's thread - you can read all about it here!

Cheers,

Jon,

Thanks for posting the pictures. Looking at the set up of the speakers in the room I am not surprised you are having problems with the sound when you tried better components.

Also laminate flooring is a sonic disaster, floorboards or solid oak flooring is much better, but you need a large woollen rug to reduce brightness and slap echo.

regards

Dev

Cheers Dev,

Yes I have a distinct feeling the laminate floor is affecting things here. Getting a rug isn't out of the question, provided I can find one that's not too expensive.

-Hi-end audio system... 10 000€
-A Photophone... 200€
-Sending the picture to a hosting webspace... 1€
-Having the advice of good webfriends to buy a decent digital cam... Priceless!

For an occasionnal use, a little affordable point and shoot digital Camera i suggest often is the Canon Powershot A400.

Nuno, I think in the end the mystery of what your system may have looked like would have been better than a Steven Toy photo.

Adrian,
What are the distances - between the speakers and from sofa to speakers, am just trying to get a sense of scale.

Wow, Adrian !
What a nice scene !!!

I understand it's past 10pm in Oz, hence the artificial lighting. The icing on the cake would be some shots during the day. Also facing to the right side, which is - if I remember right, the "sunny" side...

Well done, Adrian, waiting impatiently for your impression of the 300

cheers,
Stefan

Adrian,

very very nice,

The MF7's have plenty of room to work in!

Enjoy! That sounds like a nice soundstage. Can't wait to get my new room sorted out, only 22 days to go (not that I am counting Roll Eyes )

Great pictures Adrian, your room/system/MF7' really do look impressive!!!
Boy those MF7' are big! I suppose this is a dedicated room!

Congratulations Adrian,
Enjoy it!
Best, Edouard

Hi Expat in Oz

We reference to the 3rd picture down showing your speakers. The wall picture on the left seems lower then the one on the right.

Nice system

Excellent pictures and a great looking system.

I like it that you managed to get an empty space between the speakers. I kind of wish I could do the same.
