Also looks like a ZX-9 or 7 maybe? Class!
Correct again ZX-9
The system and the room are impressive!
But being a fan of the cassette tapes I have to say that your table is a real eye catcher
Just wondering why youāve got such enormous speakers in such a small roomā¦
Mike in this case itās not about size ā¦ itās quality. Have you ever heard Ovator 800s? They are quite amazing.
This is a dedicated room with no other requirement than to play music in. The music played here sounds phenomenal. Thatās why
Never critique a mans cave.
Good effort, very nice.
Couldnāt stretch to a Dragon?
Just kidding the 9 is an amazing performer with some people even swearing it is a better machine than the Dragon in many ways.
Thanks Dan. This is the system. Itās taken years of buying and upgrading to get here. I bought my first Naim system in 1995! Over the last 10 years the advice and help and āpatienceā from James @ Tomtom Audio has helped build it to this:
LP12: Tangerine Audio Stiletto plynth, Tangerine Audio Eklipse, Ekos SE, Ortofon A95 (Ltd Edition) Radikal, Super Lumina (special order)
Superline, Super Cap / Snaxo, Super Cap/ CD555 & CD555PS / ND5 XS (for radio) / Nakamichi Z-X9 Chord Chorus RCS-DIN / Sony R2R TC-766-2 Chord Chorus RCA - DIN (not in main stack) / S1 Pre Amp / 1 x NAP 500 (BMR) 2 x NAP 300 / Super Lumina Interconnects x 3 / NAC A5 x 6 / Fraim / Fraim Chips / Ovator s800 / Everything on Power line / Dedicated power spur / Isolated sound proof room.
I think we have the same Telecasterā¦
Mines from around '82
Not far off that but sounds fabulous!
The speakers were a lot further away I thought there was something lacking good so on another thread I asked advice and Darke Bear had some thoughts which I implemented. I canāt tell you how good this all sounds now. As Iāve said earlier, this room isnāt about anything other than music. There isnāt any asthetics I have to consider other than helping the music sound brilliant. I can close my eyes and eveything in the room disappears ā¦ itās just music. Half the time my wife comes in and thinks Iām asleep, but shocks the living daylights out of me
When you asked about ZX9 or 7, I was looking for photos of a motorbike !
Thanks @ 916SPS. I am very envious! Something for me to aspire to. Only thing I would say is have you considered going down the streaming route. I had the ND5XS but upgraded to NDS with 555PS.
Like I say a great system, great room. Amazing and looks alot of fun too!
Goshā¦nice kit and the room is just a lovely music room.
Itās behind the S1 preamp. Canāt you see it ?
