Yesterday the electrician was there and did various installations in our house. He also installed a Furutech FT-SWS (R) Wall Socket. Not the most expensive model from Furutech. But more quiet, clarity and precision in the sound image was immediately audible, even with my small system.
I don’t know the regulations in Switzerland but typically you have a differential switch (Doepke) with one or more circuit breakers (Gigawatt) downstream. Or multiples of that, depending on your desired/required setup.
There is a single phase (in your pic) and a 3 phase Doepke available btw.
It’s good to discuss with your electrician. These parts are among the best available for audio. Don’t let him tell you otherwise.
I have a Furutech wall socket too albeit a different model. The burn-in period is excruciatingly long as the sound goes from good to poor to mediocre(it stays like that for many days), then all of a sudden after approximately 500 hours you get excellent and glorious. Most owners who installed the same outlet reported on the same experience.
Not a purchase as such but today I met Darran at Class A Audio, top bloke by the way, and now have two freshly serviced NAP135s warming up while playing a bit of the Counting Crows
I only bought the amps last year but the service seems quite timely as some of the components removed were date stamped 1995, a little longer than the recommended 10-12 years.
They did sound pretty good before the service but I am now looking forward to seeing what they really should sound like as they burn in, although I know its going to take a little patience
Thank you for pointing this out. For me, an improvement was immediately audible. I previously had a swiss wall socket which offers little support. I had to use an adapter until now because the power strip has a Schuko plug. Probably comes the direct improvement therefore. But I will be patient and look forward when there is another improvement.
Lovely. My 52, SC and 135s all go back tomorrow to be serviced. Having spoken to Naim it’s possible the 135s haven’t been touched since they first left Naim, apart from being moved from chrome to Olive boxes. So I’m hoping for a dramatic improvement.
May I ask why you are using the metal converters on your wall bracket? Assuming that’s a P10 and the latest small bracket, in which case they are not needed.
hi HH my wall is so out off level i tried mounting it twice so gave up as i had the adapters from previous shelf i added a 3mm shim under the rear cup it is now bang on level
