Yeah - good to have both. WOW - 808 … what a speaker! No thunderstorm effect - so calm and so direct and good!

As long as you don’t move them on, that’s fine.

Managed to get a KS-1 for demo… (so many THX) and the 606 are in transit.
All prepared and ready for arrival

@drago so now you can appreciate that the treble on the 606 isn’t “hot”. The 808 snd 606 share the same tweeter.

Will See tomorrow - at 808 there is no hotness whatsoever… SBL more harsh - BUT different rooms.
Heard the vertere Pulse XS LS cable against SL. It was better. VERY nice cable!
LS cable (on 808 with naim and vertere MG):
- Vertere pulse XS
- naim SL
- Kudos KS 1
- naim naca 5
Clear winner … vertere Pulse XS
naim naca 5 … not bad… rough and dirty But also a bit harsh
kudos less harsh and a bit calmer - a bit better but close
SL … all abbaut resolution … very detailed but a bit too clean
vertere best of all - less detail than SL but very groovy.
Same song
on naim SL - singer at beginning of the career seems to be in an audition and is very concentrated to give all she/he can - and it is a success
on vertere - singer has years of practice is famous and plays with fun
This could be future upgrade

If you can, try also Tellurium Ultra Black II speaker cable. Very good with Naim system, detailed and groovy.
And don’t forget Oephi cables.
606 should come today… raining badly 
Must manage pick-up fast.
Currently in full doubt mode…
Will it be as magic and fast as the SBL… ?
Am I ready for the change…?
Only ears will tell
Will test them standing in front of SBL first - with KS1 cable.
Quick check before moving SBL to the side.
As sofa is in the middle it is no problem to push it back to have similar distances as before…
Very exciting… most “invasive” upgrade I have done

If I were you I would not change more than speakers for the first test to avoid too many changes at once. This should give you a more proper test result if comparing them against SBL is what you are after. That is, use NACA5 with 606 and later change to KS-1. Kind recommendations

Totally fine - will definitely do this …
Changes in room placement is bad.
Why this silly plan?
Afraid moving SBL 
What kind of music do you mainly listen to?
Solo bass guitar is my guess

They’re both made by Vertere, you’d expect them to keep the best for themselves!
Super Lumina cables are made by Vertere? Didn’t know that.
you really need to try and relax and enjoy this experience. this should be an exciting experience not a painful one. you’re going to give yourself a heart attack. just my thoughts. good luck!

There are 5 caps at the base. Should the fifth stay in the position. The one in the front - in the middle.
Could you post a picture so we can see?
