Stands
Chaps
My view on stands, which is based purely on listening in other peoples systems as well as my own, is as follows.
Fraim ...the best for Naim based systems...it sounds and looks great and the quality is unbeatable. Truely truely musical.
Hutter... very neutral and really brings out the music. Good quality product.
Quadraspire Ref...totally ruins the music and looks like a cheap 1950's tea trolley. I find it impossible to understand why people buy this product.
Mana...Very good under TT's and speakers. It brought about a good improvement on both my Briks and SBLs.
The sound is a bit bright for me personally, for electronic hardware. Very well made but the appearance has a low WAF. Lacks versitility if you want to add more boxes at a later date.
Townsend sink....improved my Naim CD3.5 tremendously. Not so good under the CDS2. Very well made.
