The Naim Audio difference

Creating the world’s most advanced audio technology starts and ends with the music we all love. We are proud of our engineering expertise and handcrafted manufacturing. But, above all, we are music lovers, dedicated to bringing you the best possible listening experience.

We’ve been doing it every single day since our founder, Julian Vereker MBE (1945 – 2000), built the first Naim amplifier in 1973. He was driven by nothing more than a desire to experience music in his home as it was when he heard it live.

This is our founding belief, and though the methods we use to achieve this have and will continue to change, our ultimate aim will remain – to create a deeper more immersive music experience.

THE NAIM PHILOSOPHY

Let the voice of Naim take you inside the music

Every Naim product is conceived, designed and engineered entirely in service of the sound, revealing a pure experience of music that is as close as possible to its original live source.

1. Space

We give each of the critical components their own environment, omitting outside interference, which means no compromise to the purity of sound.

2. Circuitry

We minimise any interplay between the internal levels, so that you can simultaneously enjoy both the quiet and the loud, as originally intended.

3. Purposeful Materiality

We use materials that excel in performance, not just appearance.

4. Technology

We constantly strive for new and innovative ways to achieve our goals, integrating sophisticated electronic design with mechanical engineering.

Which Naim is Right for You?

Discovering which Naim system is right for you will illustrate the boundless potential of our ranges. Whether you are new to the world of high-fidelity audio or a seasoned audiophile, we have the perfect system to take you deeper into the music.

As you move through our ranges, Naim core functionality is retained but the listening experience becomes increasingly immersive: your music gains depth and detail, a greater power to move you and connect you with the music.

Your journey into the Naim family starts with the Mu-so range of wireless music systems, which draw on the digital signal processing expertise developed for the Naim for Bentley in-car audio system.

For those that crave more, the Uniti range of all-in-one players is the place to go with full Naim streaming functionality and amplifier stages inspired by our iconic NAIT designs.

The next stage up in terms of musical performance is the move to a two-box system with the ND5 XS 2 network player or the CD5 SI CD player and one of Naim’s legendary NAIT integrated amplifiers.
