In fairness to Juliette they are kept outdoors and she looks after them, in addition to her job.
So, not tuppence ha’penny, but not like having them stabled.
Enough so that when I do an upgrade I don’t feel guilty!

Thank you very much for these details! As I am also considering the Diablos, this is encouraging!
Even the most understanding partners . . . usually don’t understand this.
“What are you doing?”
“Taking photos of the hi fo to post online.”
Just a boring day keeping away from other humans, taking a photo took a couple of minutes and a distraction from the Corona virus.
Keep it tight people.

Recent conversation with dear friend.”Why are most of the pictures on your phone your record player and a record sleeve?” “Because I post what I’m playing on a forum.” Friend edges away slightly
Must be good for social distancing!
How a pic is done. The green spot on the left keeps us in balance with all the black in fugue to the right, so our vision creates a diagonal with the red of the lamp; the diagonal barely touches the lower part of the red lampshade leaving all the light underneath exactly beneath the invisible diagonal. The point of real visual focus (the shorter gray section of the plug, precisely against the black of the grilles) is the end of the plug, whose exact half from the pic’s left border has a ratio with the pic’s width of exactly 1,25, which is also the ratio of the natural Major Third interval. Your Spotify cable’s plug’s point of grip is an E inside a great C.
Fine pic.

Hi Max, Thanks for these kind words. It was really a lot simpler than that, my friend suggested turning the overhead room light on after my first failed attempts with the iPhone!
I suspect the pic may be the first recorded instance of the front panel Aux1 on an XS series amp in use, roughly ten years after its release
Best, Chris
Seriously?
Hello RacKit
Seeing the back of your rack made me think of a technique that developed this past week. I had the need to move my Fraim–but it would work for most any rack. Picture 1 below shows some castors that I got at the Hardware store. They have a smooth plastic base for carpet. Picture 2 shows some washers that I got that the points of the Fraim fit into and protect the castor below, otherwise the Fraim would punch right thru. Picture 3 shows one of them installed under the foot of the Fraim, with some blue painters tape to hold the washers. Just lift the Fraim and slide the castor assembly into place.
After installing all 3, you can simply slide the Fraim into its new position. In this case, one can slide the Fraim/Rack out into the room so that you can get behind the rack(s). Then do a proper job of dressing the wires at your leisure. After satisfied, push the whole assembly back into place–even adjusting for SQ if you wish. When satisfied, take the castor assemblies out and install the still points, etc, or poke thru the rug if allowed.
These castors also come with a felt bottom instead of the shinny plastic, so they would move on a wood floor easily. Make sure your spikes do not protrude else you scratch the floor.
Happy Cable Dressing!
That’s a great solution for the AV rack if I ever need to get behind it again.
Cheers, Rack.
Now that’t a good idea for not showing the dust.
Yes, seriously. Why, is it so strange to analyze a thing when you catch it has a structure? I see the same way I hear, and I caught the fact that the focus point was on the grip of the plug, for maybe unconscious reasons – which Chris has perhaps unwillingly clarified in the second paragraph of his reply. BTW, if I may, that is the cable to connect the iPhone of a person of a certain importance to him, so that focus on the grip of the plug has a meaning.
I am aware that the Naim Experience is, by nature and default, adverse to analysis, and that is why I’ve always loved to disassemble certain facts here to reassemble them accompanied by an interpretation. I also know that most hate interpretations. Can’t I be at least #2 in bothering people with my personality?
M.
Who is #1 then?
Ah! No reply required. I think I’ve just remembered.
