Pictures elsewhere, boxes in the garage.
So, where is the Hifi revisited club for the impecunious? Sounds like a mission for us Naimites! Free-cycling our past splurges…

But do your cats have a system? The PPs have a small one-box system in their room.

Where’s the car?
Too much, in the loft.

Apart from the wooden crate for my Dynaudio Confidence 20’s which can’t go there and is the garage.
I know, I really should not be allowed to post anywhere on here!
However, I take my three Naim boxes in the loft and, and, and raise it with the five (5) American Muscle Crates (not boxes) in the Garage.
These crates are so big, I could only get one in the Fraim

Sacrilege!
That looks close to the same amount of non-speaker / non-stand boxes I have. When I include the other bigger ones, that’s where it gets problematic. Maybe I’ll try and fit empties on empties and see what happens.
And they’re all under the stairs on the lower ground floor, so can’t keep them out of sight.
Too haphazard right now to post a pic. Need to create some order first.

As far as I can estimate, somewhere between 40 and 50 Hi-Fi boxes from 5 systems of varying complexity. All in the garage loft, except the pre-amp one which is too big and heavy to get up there & is in my motorbike store…

If you want to clear the loft I’ll take the 303 off your hands.
The wife asked very nicely today and we have thrown out about 20 boxes, mostly obtained from the local supermarket. I had been hoarding them in anticipation of selling some older equipment but I cannot bring myself to part with anything. I still remember the pain from selling my LPs, my Connoiseur BD1 with SME, some Audiolab amplifiers, a Sansui AU101, a Leak Stereo 20 with Varislope Stereo, an RCA rack (0ver 5 ft high) full of ex-cinema valve amplifiers, a full set of Phillips TodAO amplifiers, etc etc …
I still shudder when I think of how much I got and how much they could be worth now.

I am in Italy, but I would love it to go to a new home.
Why can’t we have a Naim exchange where our stuff can go to ourselves?

Hi Nigel,
Thank you for your reply. Now we are out of the EU (don’t start me off) I presume the postage will be greater than its value. Perhaps you could enquire.
But thank you for replying, I hope it finds a good home. It is a shame there are no PMs on Naim.
Best regards
Peter

Yes, Brexit and Customs duties are a ! I used to buy a lot of stuff from the UK.
A vintage pencil I bought spent six weeks in customs. A piece of photographic kit, made here in Italy, but held in the companies HQ in the UK arrived with customs duties to pay.
I should put it on Ebay probably.
