You're right Richard.... Why didn't i think of that earlier...
I was checkin' out the forum at the office, that's why I wasn't logged-in autmatically.

Oh yeah - this thread reminds me - now I finally have a Naim component (rather than just cables), here's the proof...


Ignore the crappy sources - it's only a bedroom system. The Pioneer CDP isn't all THAT bad as it goes, actually

Yes, I do need a new rack

Oh - and this is what my headphones sit on when not in use...



When the music's over turn out the lights

My system (hopefully)

And more.

David,

Are you giving your speakers cavity wall insulation or something?

Matthew

its nice to know I am not the only one with railway track all over the lounge floor.

NB

And pray what are those stuffed animals doing penance for, down in the corner? Or are you just a stuffed-animals sadist?

Herman

Maybe some kind of room treatment?

Makes the corner of the room a kind of a cross between a bass trap and a bear trap...possibly?

Cheers!

Richard.

Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have. Be careful how you spend it lest others spend it for you.

Homage to golden feet (but black socked)

Very nice, Steve.

I see you wear black socks, as well- I don't see why everyone thinks they're objectionable.

What kind of rack are those?

Thanks, Mike.

The racks are a couple of tricked up Corras units from a certain Swedish manufacturer.. Work well though.

I only wear black socks - nothing else will do

If you wear black shoes you wear black socks.

I have sent male staff home for wearing white socks with black shoes and trousers.

Hi @ all!

After looking at all this stuff with green lights I think it's time to show something with red lights :
Turntable: No3
Amp: Classic
CD: Impuls1
all from Phonosophie (former importer of NAIM Audio in Germany).
Speakers: ALR Note3, here shown on DIY stands.
Sounds wonderful, for me the earth is flat too.

Mick,

apperently you failed to notice Stevie is not wearing any shoes. All he's wearing are those socks.

FYI dark charcoal socks are the best option in any combo. Better than black.

Herman

And also never trust a man in brown shoes.

Heard a noise and came downstairs to this...

They heard the 'Super Fury Animals' were playing that night!

Steve

Steve,

How are your racks tarted up and how do they compare to the Standesign?

Also, is it acceptable to wear white sneakers with black socks? I've done it, but I recall Martin Amis describing that combo as "tragic".

My sistem, featuring the best sounding Planar 3 in the colonies.



PS anyone know how to get spraypaint off walls?

Let's pay attention. If your sock selection follows The Mick Parry Fashion Philosophy, you'll never pick up chicks or get promoted . Socks should always have more in common with your pants than with your shirt or shoes.

Fashionably yours, in brown shoes...

(PS- These pics are very nice. Neil W in Durham should be featured on MTV's "Cribs".)

LoL Mike!

The room looks a lot better from when I first saw it, and I don't just mean the paint! ;-)

I can see some Korean items in your listening room. My son is half Korean! And I am half Japanese...

I was tempted to start a System pics 1983 thread but I don't quite think this pic warrants it. My speakers were usually placed conventionally but they spent a few weeks in this arrangement - I can no longer remember the reason. The system is: Ariston RD40/Mission 774LC/Ortofon VMS10;Hitachi HA280;Heybrook HB1.

My upgrading path was very stupid at this point because I was too impatient to save up for the most logical upgrades. The amplifer was the weakest link in my previous system [Dual CS505 turntable and Wharfedale Laser 40 speakers] but the only affordable plausible alternatives were the muffled, tuneless, unemotional (albeit much praised) NAD or the musical but painfully distorted Creek CAS4040. So I upgraded it last. I got the Heybrooks because the Wharfedales needed a much better amp to stop them being painful to listen to, and I knew the Heybrooks would withstand many upgrades. Then I got the Ariston because I couldn't wait another few months to afford a Rega Planar 3. And that's when things really started to go wrong...
