I think I can see who makes it, no idea what model it is and so how much, no doubt most of the money is in the logo so to speak.

Presumably before the lid was removed it was filled with very rare Wiltshire air...... :whistle:

It's a Naim Flatcap. About £700 new?

Reminds me of a music centre they showed on That's Life many many years ago. That was mostly air inside too.

And then there's the Tannoy Westminster that has a lot of air inside it, as well as wooden labyrinth, which must be fun for any rats that find their way inside them.

Man, I hate seeing amps with small portions!!!!

My Exposure X portions compared to the latest Naim Nait 5i is far more generous!!!!

I had to google it
-------
The FlatCap XS is a dual-rail power supply that, either alone or in pairs, provides the most effective means to extract the ultimate performance from an XS system. One FlatCap XS can be used to enhance the performance of a CD5 XS and a NAT05 XS, while a second could be deployed to supercharge the performance of the NAC 152 XS audio preamplifier [ THAT IS A £2000 PRE AMP] .

The FlatCap XS is an external audio power supply that replaces the FlatCap2x. The improvements to sound quality are subtle but significant: dynamics are more even across the audio band, bass lines are more easily differentiated and the system noise floor is reduced. The performance improvements are even more obvious when powering a preamplifier and CD player at the same time. It can be used with the NAC 202 and NAC 282 preamplifiers [ THAT IS A £6000 PRE AMP ] :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I always liken Westminster to musical (sort of) wardrobes. You can keep your pants and socks in them as well.
