About Naim
Naim Audio is a specialist British manufacturer of high-end audio amplifiers well known for their signature qualities of “pace, rhythm and timing”. The company is equally known for their idiosyncratic approach to hi-fi design, eschewing specifications and test bench power ratings as indicators of the quality of amplification.
The approach by Naim is characterised by the absence of tone controls. The use of the DIN connectors instead of the RCA connector used by almost everyone else in the home audio equipment industry, and reliance on over-engineered external power supply units (PSU) to deliver current for musical transients.

Tim Moss –
This is an awesome little piece of kit. How such a massive sound can emanate from such a tiny box beggars belief.
