6. Solstice Special Edition Assembly and Set Up

6.1 Chassis installation

Remove the turntable parts completely from the box. All tools required for the 

build can be found in the accessories box.

Site the turntable plinth on a suitable level surface. Naim recommends the 

Fraim equipment support for best performance. 

Using the large bubble level, adjust the three feet on the turntable to ensure the 

chassis is perfectly level. Place the level near the arm housing for best results.
