It must be tricky dressing those cables so they don’t touch the floor? ---

I’ve done a separate topic on it now to prevent thread drift. [Shunyata Sigma vs Omega ethernet cables](https://community.naimaudio.com/t/shunyata-sigma-vs-omega-ethernet-cables/45743) ---

It does. I do basic cable dressing only. It does touch wall and floor unfortunately. ---

We had a discussuion about this way back! It’s better than what it was though as you had them all really tight in against the wall. ---

If you get some sort of opportunity to address that it’s well worth the effort. I’m always shocked at the rewards gained by getting cables sorted. ---

Serial with 67x… I do not think they are already there. Last time I looked they were in the 5xx range. ---

Nice - looks like a very familiar setup. How is the first impression of 2nd ps in? You definitely need full Fraim. And so cables (have not checked your signature). And we both need statement pre 😁 ---

I know. I just feel I lack the skill to do it properly. I did try to twist and massage but I dun have proper Fraim and tall leg also. So I kind of did not bother. But despite that it sounded good also as well. ---

If I managed to get the Statement deal close I might not have cable issues and can delay my Fraim purchase also. I think Fraim got glass shortage now. ---

Indeed I am. Hopefully in Oct and the dealer can accept my proposed price. ---

Wow… cool that the statement is available in Singapore. I have never heard a statement system but declare it as my all time favorite as well 😊 ---

Even though I had my eye on these for a while, after buying my NA Muon2 switch (which is still running in but SPOILER is incredible) I had no intention for any more serious purchases. Except a retailer quietly liquidated their Crystal Cable stock and the price was so unbelievably good that I pounced on them. Within a few hours everything was sold out, including their $100K+ cable. Such a contrast to my Tellurium Q Silver Diamond in physical size. Hard to imagine that these new cables at retail are worth the same as a brand new car. I now own cables from every Crystal Cable line (barring their oligarchs-need-only-apply Infinite Dreams series) Art Series: 1pr of Monet XLR interconnects Future Dream 22: speaker cable Diamond Series 2: 2 x Ultra2 power cords, 1pr Ultra2 RCA interconnects More running in… ---

Well at Latham (Naim distributor in the Netherlands) they have a full Statement Demo set available for only 110K Euro’s… And a 500 set, feels like they are selling out all their Naim equipment… ---
