Indeed, if it already works well like that in the room with the elements present, why bother.
You save money to be able to buy other boxes!

Thanks Ken. I had Maple Allaes before to match the Fraim. It took a lot of scanning the classifieds for matching n-Sat, n-Sub in the same colour. The SL2s came up before the house was finished so I jumped on the first pair I saw. Not seen another pair in Maple since! Signals have/had a pair in Cherry at the moment though.
Iāve had to bring the SL2s forward a bit because of the Super Lumina speaker plugs hitting the wall where the old right angle speaker plugs really let you push the speaker right back. Still getting enough low down slam and itās better defined due to the SL cable upgrade.

I think the prep work to get all the speakers on solid foundations was worth the end result. Would be interesting to hear another set of SL2s to compare though.
Takes me back looking at these pictures though.

As we are in the middle of doing our living room up, I suggested something like this for my SBLās. She laughed and pointed the way outside.

Unlucky that Graeme - itās the perfect time to do it.
Why not take the Mrs away for the weekend while youāve secretly arranged to get it done by a builder?
Or somethingā¦

When I see the pics of your (heavy) works, youāre sure it the same place?
I canāt see your racks on the pics. I think they probably are on the right of the wallā¦
Hey, she already approved and helped with installing 3 radials. I will be paying back on that for some time to come. Not sure doing any unapproved modifications to the house would be good for me. At least thatās what she told me

Ooo, I bet those Fabers sound fantastic on the end of your 300DR. Iāve yet to hear that model but I love my Olympica 1ās and if I ever looked to upgrade, the GTās would be high on the list to home demo!

Pit,
I heard it, I listened to it it again, I decided to do myself a pre-retirement present and bought it. So far, I am happy. I listen to much more music than I used to but the amp from āAmp Master Passā is not āforgivingā or āslowā. It is rich, competent, natural, immediate, dynamic but you arenāt aware of all this while listening to music. I sometimes think it is not loud enough, then I realize that I have to turn the volume down a bit for comfortable conversation. With Naim, I used to turn down volume a bit for comfortable listening. Two very different things, if you catch what I mean.
That said, I also think that the SN3 is by far the best SN of the series; anyway, if I had bought the Heresy speakers first and had been still bound to Naim, Iād have bought an Atom for sure.
Best
Max

Thank god good manners are back.
Sorry Haim, do how do you mean āpoundsā? GBP or weight?
Hi Rackkit,
Did you do a writeup on the differences that the solid floor under the SL2s made ā¦youāve got me thinking!
Cheers,
M
Hi M. I couldnāt say what the differences were as I bought SL2s while doing the renovations and the system was all packed away. I had Allaes at the time though but jumped on the SL2s when they came up.
To get it done is probably only a days work for a builder so well worth giving it a go.

Probably either is quite aproposā¦
Max,
You know darn well that I am a weight watcherā¦
Thank a lot Massimoā¦i perfectly understand the feeling you describe and probably i shared it in my 845 listening sessions.
I was curious about your sn3 opinion because i read your naim signature sound description in afmerate site and i totally share that feeling.
I didn t heard sn3 so far but an old sn2 owner told me: no audible difference in Line level sources. I remained scared considering the totally different amp stage.
Can you spend few words in differences you cought?
Thanks a lot
Pit
