Description
Naim NAC 332 ex demonstration.
Naim’s new mid – high end preamplifier has certainly not disappointed, although it may have confused a fair number of people. This is Naim’s first completely stand-alone analogue preamp. There is a single upgrade option and this is the addition of the NPX 300 power supply.
Armed with balanced XLR inputs and outputs, along with DIN and RCA connections, it represents a complete break from Naim’s old way of doing things but it also represents proper sonic progress.
With the wide range of crossover cables available, it can be completely compatible with an older Naim system, providing you accept that it has no use for a Hi-Cap, Supercap or PSC.
This NAC 332 s/n 540396 dates to 8th September 2023 has been our demonstration unit since then.
Curerent RRP is £8500.
This is offered in the full original packaging with the RF handset, link plugs and Powerline Lite mains lead. Our 12 month warranty applies.
Naim’s description NAC 332:
Versatile Preamplifier
NAC 332 is the “analogue centre” of your system, delivering optimal performance to your amplifier and loudspeakers. Naim’s most versatile preamplifier to date, you can connect headphones as well as the NVC TT phono preamplifier for listening to vinyl. Use the included remote control to control the volume and inputs in just one click.
NAC 332
Taking several elements from the Statement S1 preamplifier, a benchmark product at Naim, NAC 332 combines performance and versatility thanks to its multiple functions. It allows you to connect many sources, from an amplifier to headphones, as well as a turntable or CD player. Its optimised Naim circuits deliver enhanced musical performance from all your sources and limit internal noise for uncompromising sound quality.
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 for NAC 332 and are mounted on printed circuit boards with metallic holes for increased quality. The architecture of the Statement volume knob has been used. Added to this are a high-performance transistor and balanced outputs that preserve sound quality over long distances and allow rack installation.
A timeless design
Naim products are designed to be both contemporary and timeless. Our creations forgo any unnecessary adornments that would detract from the performance and sound quality delivered. The design of the NSS 332 is razor sharp, combining a sleek design, premium materials, and adjustable logo brightness.
Perfect integration in a complete system
Naim NAC 332 links perfectly to the streamer NSS 333 and power amplifier NAP 350 from the New Classic range.
