Bit like one of your suits!
There is a fair amount of silver gubbins under the chassis but I get what you mean, the first time I took the cover off I thought the seller had nicked half the bits

Never been on here lol
Phono versions are fairly rare,
The price isn’t ludicrous either really
Same photos seem to have been used some years ago in a Wigwam ad and an Audiogon ad

Like cars, watches, postcodes, you’re paying for the Naim 
The Kondo has landed 
Massive, colossal thanks to @sjs for doing such an amazing job getting it back to a proper M7 and that phono stage is just fucking wow, dead silent, bang goes my plan of going digital only.

absolutely, pretty much everything there plugged into an oscillosocpe would turn Serge into a whimpering wreck.

Probably the nicest looking one I’ve seen
Would be happy to swap it with a squeezebox classic and cash my way if you do go digital

@thebiglebowski Are you not using the spring for tracking weight? I think I preferred it to using the counterweight.
using both, set the rough value with the weight and then use the spring to get it exact.
