NSS 333
With NSS 333, you can find the most recent streaming platforms (Spotify connect, Apple Music, TIDAL, TIDAL Connect and Qobuz) and listen to your favourite radio stations. Thanks to the integrated AirPlay2, Chromecast, UPnP™, Roon Ready and Bluetooth® AptX technologies, streaming your content from your smartphone or tablet is easy and high quality. For total listening pleasure at home, this streamer is multi-room compatible with many connected Naim products.
Perfect control
The intuitive Focal & Naim app allows you to control your NSS 333 easily. You can access all your music, including your favourite radio stations, playlists and streaming services or explore artist biographies and discographies. Moreover, you can update your system wirelessly. It also allows you to control both servers and Naim streaming products, eliminating the need to manage two separate apps.
Naim know-how
Under the leadership of our Technical Director, our engineers have developed specific electronic circuits to give the New Classic products superior performance. The best components have been chosen, such as the NP800 streaming card, an exclusive DSP with integrated crossover for a high precision result and a high-end DAC distinguished by its audiophile management of the audio signal.
A timeless design
Naim products are designed to be both contemporary and timeless. Our creations forgo any unnecessary adornments that would detract from performance and sound quality. The design of the NSS 333 is razor sharp, combining a sleek design, premium materials, a colour screen and adjustable logo brightness.
Integration into a complete system
NSS 333 can be linked with New Classic products, but also with previous Classic Series lines via a new range of specific cables.
Easy to use
Simplicity is the key. Buttons on the front panel allow quick access to standby mode, play/pause, inputs and favourites. Enjoy the features of the bi-directional ZigBee remote, even without direct visibility of the product. The inputs are configurable and a “Standby” option, consuming 0.5 Watts, reduces the electrical energy of the product.
The story of Naim and aluminium
Our founder, Julian Vereker, immediately understood the many benefits of aluminium for wrapping Naim electronic components. He knew that delicate audio components are very sensitive to the effects of magnetic fields, thermal instability, unwanted vibrations, etc.
The New Classic range maximises this highly technical and durable approach, with aluminium housings rivalled only by Statement, our flagship product. Naim chose a superior-quality aluminium, which optimally combines thermal and microphonic properties. The front panels are treated with solid 20mm-thick aluminium billets; heat sinks frame the side panels and 5mm plates cover the top and bottom surfaces of the products. The aluminium is brushed, sandblasted and anodised to guarantee unalterable beauty throughout the product's life. The New Classic range can be immediately distinguished with one look and one touch, before the first note of music even plays.
