I apologize if I was rude. These are my previous cables.
Fraim now in place. The art panels will go on the wall above the speakers when I can work out how to fix them in place.
We did have a bit of a scare last night, the shower leaked through the roof, narrowly missing the CDS / brains stack. Hence the hole in the ceiling.
Wow - that would have sucked - glad it missed!
Love the speakers!
I want the same room. Where do they sell them?
Does the cartridge stays in the grooves when you play music�
Hi Max, I got mine from a company called quick gardens .co.U.K.
Iâve had it for approaching 10 years and looks as good as new.
They have an extensive range and their background was ski chalets. Their main hub is in Europe, canât remember exactly where but I dealt with U.K. branch and their service was excellent.
I donât have any links with them just a very satisfied customer and my best mate got a similar one just he didnât take the double skin option that I did.
Their price point was and still is pretty much sector leading and they use high quality thick wood in typically 4x2 inch staves.
Engineering fit for housing Naim or indeed other loved hifi and music
Sure. Open baffle works in another way compared to a normal speaker box. You get less output from the same cone area but the quality is better.
Liberated my folksâ Celestion Ditton 44s from their garage, last used in 1997 when I blew them
Managed to source new driver, mid-range and tweeter that were blown across the two, had proper terminals put on back so I could connect my NAC-A5, the wood got some TLC, connected them up ⌠and they sound AMAZING. 25 years of speaker tinkering and basically Iâve been hankering for the big, warm effortless sound I recall from childhood all this time.
Next will be recapping and rewiring - not 100% necessary as the caps all tested fine - and for now I am extremely happy
And no, dog is not supposed traipsing over the velvet sofa
Gorgeous Beagle, miss ours, brilliant dogs.
Large speakers play large and effortless. Lovely speakers.
Yeah sheâs lovely and great fun, totally insubordinate though and glad we got insurance cover on the sofas!
Yeah well thatâs the old joke, âif you see someone holding a lead and no dog, thatâs a Beagle ownerâ.
Ours had brilliant recall, for a Beagle, but if something really caught his attention it was game over and then just wait till either he came back or your phone rang.
Great effort, looks a lovely listening space and those speakers look great in your environment.

Very little recall here. Would love to have her off the lead more often.
Weâre partly to blame for lacksadaisical training, but even by beagle standards I think sheâs quite chaotic and headstrong. Like have a toddler all over again - in fact have had to reinvest in a stair gate so the cat has a safe space (all she does is pin him to the ground and lick him, and heâs so gentle he wonât swipe her and put an end to the daily madness).
Ours would chase anything that moved, the arguments I had with cyclists (I am one) and runners (same here) where they would kick out just because the Beagle would run after them.
If it moves, chase it, Beagle code.
Ah thatâs one trait ours doesnât have ⌠havenât added anything in a while but some of her craziness on display here Romy (@adventuresofromy) ⢠Instagram photos and videos
Thank you. Biggest pleasant surprise is the speakers blending in well enough that even my wife doesnât disapprove. Despite the bulk, theyâre not so high ⌠seen some on stands but I donât like the look though.
I put some spikes underneath these, and that made an immediate improvement, and my listening chair is low-slung enough that Iâm pretty much at tweeter-height anyway.
Grew the mullet a little. Added a Kef KC62 to my ProAc D20Rs, so thatâs ÂŁ5k+ speakers fronted by a ÂŁ700 DAC.
Not completely without Naim though
Surprised you felt you needed a sub with the D20s.
