Am I just meant to treat it as acceptable then? Without any kind of observation or complaint? Weary acceptance will not do

None of the above. I was sympathising with your situation, though I appreciate it might have read as āsuck it up, princessā. That absolutely wasnāt the tone I had in my head!

That just looks so good Dusty. The Statement stack is so well judged visually. It says āseriously high endā with subtlety and without bravado or macho brutalism. Lovely.
The rhyming silver slice on the 808ās just adds a visual coherence to the whole system.
Looks sensational and Iām sure sounds even more so!

Is that a single or pair of RELs?
What did it/they add
Yes, itās is a pair of s510ās
I had some specific room issues and in my room they are definitely worth it.
With a pair it pressurises the room, quite uncanny the effect they have. As mad as it sounds the ATC 40a with rel subs worked better in my room than ten 50ās ā¦ā¦

Iāve always liked the Cyrus racks. But at the same time wondered why they didnāt put the upright round the back and incorpirate cable management. Seems like obvious low hanging fruit.
Itās still the nicest way to stack Cyrus though.

@Dan_M Iām a bit slow to the party, keep up the positiveness mate. I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2021, radiotherapy in 2022 and been having some good feedback i.e. PSA 0.08 and then in February 2023 was diagnosed with bladder cancer which came out of nowhere, operation and chemo done and one follow up clear. Just building up to the next 6 monthly checkups. I love your attitude and you are going to have good days and bad days, but this forum is a great place to be.
Here is mine from the listening position complete with Amazon slippers and I bet not too many forum members have Scansonic speakers on the end of Naim. Excuse the dodgy iPhone pic.

Hi @Zupfgeiger I would be interested to hear more about your Marten Parker Duo speakers. How would you describe their presentation?
I congratulated Tim on the telephone shortly after he took delivery of the lovely S2ās. Iām glad that you decided to divulge your purchase on the forum Tim. The haters arenāt relevant as people or forum contributors and thankfully there are plenty of good guys posting who will not have a problem salivating over your system and or will be completing satisfied with what they own. Letās face it there are many 30 year old Naim systems out there still bringing great musical joy to their owners. You owing full statement doesnāt diminish that any way. Iām slumming it with a NAP500 but feel privileged to own what I have. Still hate you you greedy sod

Mmm very interesting, HiFi Choice did a review of all their major competitors in this month, Spendor, Falcon, ProAc etc All came out as being very strong , including your soon to be departed KEFs
i.e the usual suspects , a shame these werenāt in it
As I mentioned somewhere a high street chain is pairing these with a Nait 50 , my guess is that these are equally aimed at the pro-market , hence the simple finish
My living room would look a lot tidier without my dog and music collection but I wouldnāt want to be without either. (Pic of system somewhere in there)

They are domestic speakers based on pro model and the pricing point is reflected by the simple black finish. Same as the Atc finish.
