WongKN is a very open-minded audiophiles. He will still audition if time permits

He and his many of the audiophile kakis are the BIG boys compare to ours

The last time I heard a Naim many years ago, it has great rhythm and pace and make you want to get up and dance. But soundstage is 2 dimensional, no depth at all so no 3-D soundstage. So how's Naim nowadays?

Well, nowadays Naim is more commercial and offering rca connection option in order for more compatible with other brands, unlike older models.

They say Naim is well known for its timing and rhythmic performance. Yes, I can feel it and enjoy the music piece as a whole while maintaining the sonic performance. For soundstaging it has depth too but I still believe others may fare much better in 3D feel like. It just presents music as closely to a live band you can imagine. My previous Cyrus amp is more masterful when comes to deep soundstage. Guess there is always a character for each hifi brand to present their kind of music. Like they say, either you love the naim sound or you dislike it.

Htkaki also mentioned there is no right or wrong in hifi world. It depends on your taste. The best is to bring them home to audition first. Fortunately Sound Fusion is kind enuf to grant me the test. Well, leave this for HT pic and we can move to audiophile section.




Cheers.

Ya, can't have everything. For me for HT, soundstage is not so important but for music I wanted wide & DEEP soundstage and panel speaker can be very very good at that.

Thank you all for the comments. I believe there are still room for improvements and i will need to learn more from all of you. Either sitting behind the screen watching how all the exchange of info happening in the forums or visiting 'poison' rooms


Thanks! Can i get it together when the SSS-02 is here?

Nope, never take a pic of the rear. Will upload it once i snap one.

my new arrangements to my old set tat was posted a few months ago

Your room just keeps getting better and better,bro.

When are you going to get those cinema seats complete with alphabets and numbers

Btw, it is a nice touch with the popcorn machine there

Fuuuyoohh

Have you started the machine yet?!?! Now's that's a REAL popcorn hour you got there in your room!

hi guys... not yet fired up the thing..in fact...not even decided where i'm gonna put the damn thing yet... *shrugs*

definitely NOT on the floor like as shown in the pic...

need to buy a metal scoop and those cardboard boxes for the authentic cinema feel

I thought it's best to place sub at corner? no?

Soon you'll have a ticketing system with numbered seating and, if budget permits, even a part-time usherer to check ticket stubs

it's best to put the sub where it sounds best.

if put at corner
it will b very loud
i hav tested it at the corner spot
behind the front speaker spot
bt tis spot is btr
to my ears

Corners are best for the most gain since the sub is near 2 boundaries. But it might sound too boomy.

ok i fired it up and it works beautifully

really really fun... but guess what... it REALLY stinks up the place of butter!

Ah yor....

Maybe you can find a spot outside the room. The decorate that hallway with movie posters. So when you go into your AV room got cinema feel.

I think this will also qualify as part of my HT setup.

For my 60th birthday, the wifey bought for me an exclusive permanent Gold Class seat (admit one only) for my BD viewing pleasure; how sweet of her!
See, it is even diamond studded that looks like plastic!
This is a far cry from my previous 3rd class seat that I bought for myself, sigh. Just leave it to the ladies to do the shopping.

You are free to copy the photo (the first one or the second one, depending on your wish) to show to your wife or gf as suggetion for Valentine Day's gift.
Good luck.

Boss, your room so narrow one meh? In case you need to access those items at the back, how do you bypass the chair and cross over?
