System Pics 2020

Congrats…on the P10…from a fellow owner, I cannot help myself saying how much my wife and I loved Boston and New England. Unfortunately, if you have the same name as someone on the no fly list, it’s a little daunting to be ‘asked’ to answer questions about why you are visiting and what your plans are!

Add the user to the ‘ignored’ list rather than the ‘muted’ list. That should do it. You then have to actively select the post if you need to read it in order to understand the discussion which follows.

No changes since Sopra 2 from last summer, except from Sarum T speakercables (september 2019).
Sopra 2 is a real juwel in my room.

NDX2/282 at left stack and 250dr-555ps dr and Hicap2 at the right.

Beautiful ! Nice spaceful room making the Sopras stand out, they look fantastic.
I wish I could space them apart a bit more, like you have done, as I have about a meter less in between the 2 speakers.
Before deciding on the Sarum T speaker cables, had you given the SL a try ?

@Bart congratulations on new TT

i have an yer on a turntable as well, simple but good one without breaking the bank, i am still kepini my cd555 and Buying cds as well to satisfy music buying

How does Rega compare to ND555?

Thanks. Using the room widh as this, may be the reason they work so well. I also auditioned SL and a couple of others, they did not work very well in my room.

Another elegant and balanced living/music room. For the – I think – very first time in my life I’d have seen white speakers look fine in there. But chapeau anyway.

Apart from the fact that the thread is called ‘System pics’ and not ‘My system’s pics’ or ‘Naim Forum members’ system pics’, generic images have been posted innumerable times, as a commentary or integration or simple pleasure. Secondly, could you please wait to be crowned Moderator before giving instructions or disposing requests? The original post was from you, not from Richard Dane or whoever.
Thanks.

BTW,
you’re surely among the ones who posted more, entrusting to posterity every single change in your system, from moving the speakers a few cm. here and there to the – admittedly smart - idea of where to position the rega Fono. Not to speak of your olive period, when you posted every other day to show that you had moved the HiCap to the other side of the shelf. It’s all ok, but what’s wrong with a single image from a film in 3400 posts?

As the thread starter it’s totally reasonable to make these requests and it’s done on many threads. I know from experience that once one picture such as the one you mention is posted, a whole flood can follow, which then need to be removed. You will see from some of the comments that many people enjoy this thread and appreciate it being only of members’ own systems. There is brief guidance in the opening post - ie one’s own system - and 99% of people seem more than happy with that.

Anyone who wishes to start a thread on systems from films, for example, is perfectly at liberty to do so. The only thing to watch out for is that they do not infringe copyright. I hope that helps.

Lovely looking space Chris, and certainly with a highly Scandinavian inspiration as for the white painted wooden old floor boards/ lovely distressed plain mirror. Enjoy Peter

The angular bookshelves are a really nice touch, they eliminate the corners which are always a pain in the neck visually and to furbish while at the same time act as bass traps and diffracting devices for the rear output of the speakers. Very smart.

Sorry all. I know I have been inundating this thread with pictures of my system for 2020. Reason being is it has been evolving greatly over the past few months. Finally have things where we want them. Missing a proper pot for our new palm, but that will give me an excuse to add a few more in a month or 2.
