@frenchrooster: I’m sorry but I think this has to be the most gorgeous house in here. It’s so timeless and classic. Everything is coordinated to perfection (event he mop :grin: blends in). Everytime i look at it it makes me feel relaxed.

Irinia, i understand easily that you can appreciate this type of decoration. For myself, i am more less is more and also on the modern side.

Hey Mario! This is quite some set up, not dissimilar to a dealers room! Can you talk us through the equipment and numerous speakers of which several look wired in! Looks lovely and I bet sounds incredible!

Iliria, thank you for your kind words… Personally I think we are a bit too cluttered. Did you see the dog bed?

Very nice and tasteful

No where for the DBLs?

I wondered about them too - I was going to suggest they would sound better with the bags removed! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I think there is a pair of every pre-S400 vintage speaker Naim has made in that room! (Well, no Credos or Intros, but dang near everything else!)

I guess you are looking for IBLs to complete the collection?!

I did notice that and was wondering what it was :smile: But as it is in that picture the room looks spot on. Everything fits in so well with each other. Even the paintings have been hung at the right level/height. :+1:

Generally, like frenchrooster, I am a fan of the modern design but every now and again I do come accross a classic look which is just irresistable and your dining room is one of them. A perfect example of how a modern object such as Nova can fit very well in a classic environment.

Casper is enjoying the hi fi too. (Actually not that much; if too loud he leaves the room.)

My little dog loves my system- especially since I got those lovely Kudos Titan T88s

I spent a lot of time with Naim before going off piste - but still use my magnificent SL speaker cable :slight_smile: Like Naim amps, the 300 needs low capacitance cable or it will melt all over the rug… The phono amp lives inside the cabinet - I’m liking minimalism these days. Sky box is ugly but convenient. Reflection in mirror is 3 bass traps covered in one of my pictures. Corner trap’s main function is to hide the unholy pile of power cables. I’ve convinced myself they also focus the soundstage a little more.

Hi, where do you get that glass complete with feet under your boxes?
