While I don't pretend to fully understand most Naim power amps need 3.5m to ensure a correct impedance value and shorter lengths can actually damage the power amp. Not such an issue with the new all in one's apparently but I'd check the manual just in case.
Apologies I don't want to crap on your thread but would not wants anyone damaging their amp either.

Hi SJB,
Thanks for pointing this out, I should have mentioned it myself.
This is the case for the power amps apparently, not sure about the latest ones but the older certainly. It will mean they will run warmer and therefore may shorten the life. Not sure about causing any damage though.
For recent integrated models, 2metres or more is fine. This was used with an XS and the amp always ran cool.
