Naim Supernait 3 Integrated Amplifier

Naim Supernait 3 Integrated Amplifier 

It's been 6 years since the Naim SUPERNAIT 2 was launched and in that time the development team at Naim have been hard at work on a number of improvements to bring to the new SUPERNAIT. The SUPERNAIT 3 raises the bar again by introducing a number of performance upgrades, the biggest being an integrated phono stage making it the perfect one-box solution for turntable fans. The new phono stage is based on Naim's classic design and features a 3 stage process, the gain stage, passive equalisation and then the final gain and active equalisation, this gives great headroom, RIAA equalisation & noise performance.

Key Features

• 80W per channel into 8 ohms
• Full 24V DR module built-in
• Built-In Phono stage (RIAA equalisation)
• The sizeable toroidal power supply gives better power and speed
• Class A headphone amplification

The SUPERNAIT 3 includes a Class A preamp output stage that doubles as a headphone amplifier and ceramic heatsink technology that minimises capacitive coupling between the chassis and output transistors for optimum sound quality. Its inputs are each individually decoupled and hand-wired to minimise noise and interference while internal switching employs ultra-low-noise, constant current sources which are derived directly from the electronic design of the flagship NAC 552 preamplifier.

The Naim Supernait 3 is an incredibly capable amplifier and pairs well with a lot of new and old speakers. A favourite in the shop has the Twenty5i series from PMC. Whether you are looking for a small bookshelf like the Twenty5 21i or a compact floorstander like the Twenty5 23i, you will get remarkable level of imagaing with a depth of detail, mid and bass you would normally expect from a much larger speaker. If you would like to hear either of these combos, or any other speaker we stock on our demo Supernait 3, just let us know on 01432 354921 or email info@hifigear.co.uk
