Been a while since I posted a picture.  Latest additions are the PMC GB1i's.  New Hicap DR arriving shortly.

Hi TB

Nice!

Looks like you've been spending your absence wisely.

Hello again True.

The wallpaper is fantastic. (It is crying out for an Armstrong amp & tuner, Thorens TD150, Jim Rogers JR149s, an open reel tape deck, a Hostess Trolley and a rubber plant ;-)  )

Hope you are well again.

Congrats on the new job. (Peeked at facebook to catch up.)

Your old speakers are still doing great here (and may be connected to a Naim again one day soon).

System doing well I see. (I loved the GB1is with the NaimUniti I'll bet they are great in your setup.)

Ok, where can I get wallpaper like that?

Chebby,

 

Great to hear from you, thanks for your kind words.  I believe the wallpaper actually came from B and Q about £30 a roll I think.

Not sure about that. If you look at the bottom pic, in full size, then it appears black (at least it does to me)...

The black Rega finish is more reflective than the Naim finish, so perhaps the Saturn just looks silver in the first pics because it's reflecting the flash.

Damn! Didn't look at the other pics closely enough.

Welcome back TB and congrats on the setup  Smile How long have you had the new speakers and how do they compare to what you've had previously?

BenLaw,

 

Had the new speakers for around two months now, replaced my PMC DB1i's.  Greater detailing of the bass and a much cleaner sound.  Lots more room between all sounds.
