Welcome to the forum.

Don't you have a power amp and speakers? :) (It is OK to talk about products other than Linn and Lejonklou on here.)

I know what it is Thomas and I think you like it. :D

Thank you Thomas!!

The idea was a more detailed description of my system together with a picture :) Time ran away...

Anyway, I have a pair of ATC speakers. ATC SCM 10-2 so no need for poweramps.

Someday the plan is to get a pair of ATC SCM50/100ASL.

Wow, that's such a cool system.

The best possible source (no buttons), a Kikkin (no buttons) and active speakers. And Fraim looks very nice.

Possible improvement: Have you tried Skeets instead of coins?

Thank you Fredrik.

I was hoping that you wouldn´t spot them :oops: -Skeets is on the way.

Another improvement on the way is Linn silvers all the way to the speakers.

It's a rack from Naim, called Fraim. Nice looking, but not as nice sounding as the base Harmonihyllan rack Oden. Very expensive also. But I have only tried Linn stuff on it, maybe Naim gear sound better on Fraim than on anything else?

I agree with above posts, very nice clean looking cool system! I guess you are happy with your ATC's as you are considering an upgrade within the ATC brand. Did you compare them to any other speakers/amps? (That we may know of?)

Some audio racks can sound better with a specific brand of audio components, than with other brands. However, based on various articles and opinions, all the Harmonihyllan audio racks seem to perform very well regardless of component brand. More than likely, when I upgrade my current audio rack, it will be one of the Harmonihyllan racks.

Maybe a twoshelf Mimer rack? Don´t know if that´s possible?

Previously I owned a pair of Espek driven by a Majik 2100. Other than that I also had the opportunity to listen to a pair of ATC SCM 20AT SL in my own home and a few hours in a good friends house, he has great coffee also :)

I think they produce a clean, sharp sound. Tuneful and a great feel. They lack some in bass depth but it´s controlled.

I have to try a Mimer rack soon. I don't doubt it's better than Fraim but I have to stress that Fraim is extremely sensitive to the assembling and setup. You really need to use the right torque and the only way to check is by gently knocking on the laminated board and the glass.
A problem for me in northern Sweden is the change in humidity during the year. I have to redo the setup a few times a year.

You make some interesting points regarding audio rack set-up and maintenance issues Erik. I had to tighten-up my Quadraspire rack a few times within the first year (much to my surprise). But at this point, each time I check - it's okay.

By the way, does the Naim Fraim rack sound good with most brands of audio components, or just Naim components :?:

Good stuff Daniel. Are you tempted to compare Naim Fraim to Mimer?

Thanks Charlie.

Yes, as soon as I get a chance. Linnofil wrote that Oden, the cheapest Harmoni rack, sounds better than the Fraim. So it looks promising.
