Naim rock solid quality
Those who love to listen to the radio, will find a real soul mate in the Naim SuperUniti. Do you want to listen now to the FM band, a DAB station or do you want to explore the radio landscape via internet? This is rapidly, easily and just properly done. Obviously all depends on the intrinsic quality of the station itself. If this is available, it’s party time! Naim offers a number of preselected internet stations (Naim’s Choice); I recommend you to scour those. There’s definitely something for everybody in the iRadio streams.
Thanks to the enormous connection possibilities, both digital and analogue, the Naim SuperUniti indeed seems a versatile device. For example I connected a CD player via a digital input RCA. This way you emphasize the quality of the internal DAC. The converted signal is neatly supplied to the speakers via the stereo amplifier. rock solid Naim quality. Obviously it’s also possible to introduce other devices in the sound loop via those means: TV, TV decoder, universal player, cassette deck, record player,… flexibility all round!
In the world of iDevices, your son/daughter obviously loves to stick in his/her iPod / iPhone / iPad, in order to convince his/her friends of the cool and hip setup of their parents. Care for an absolute sound quality is very important to Naim, which proves Apple authenticated, which enables you to digitally play your favorite tracks via the 3.5 mm mini-jack. Again appeal to the top quality internal DAC and the rock solid Naim quality booms from your speakers. But remember, here again all depends on the quality of the carrier.
Do you like to work with USB storage? No problem. Use the front panel USB input for example to play selected tracks via a portable USB disc. Google even 2L Nordic Sound, that’s a provider of high resolution audio. A standard CD has a resolution of 16 bit and a sample rate of 44.1 kHz. It’s possible to download master files on the 2L Nordic Sound (a large quantity for free!). This way you enjoy a resolution of 24 bit and a 192 kHz sample rate. Thanks to the rock solid Naim quality of the internal DAC, you immediately notice the added value of the enhanced resolution. Recommended!
In heart and soul, the Naim SuperUniti is primarily a network player. It’s possible to introduce the player in your network via a cabled or wireless network. In case the supplied antenna does not satisfy, a more sensible type is optionally available. All for a good reception. The manual properly describes how to install the player in your network. This is obviously something that needs to be done correctly. In case you still get a terrible shock from the network demon, you can always go to the specialized Naim dealer. He will be glad to come over for a professional installation of the device and to provide you with insight in all functionalities right away. Look, that’s clearly an added value. Then all that nice music is available from your NAS, laptop or computer: ready for playback! The word network appears to be a wonder word. Discs (e.g. CDs) will later be banned to the past, there’s almost no words for the musical world suddenly opening up via a network player. No more taking CDs out of the cover, no more putting in the tray, going back to your chair, push play…it’s all a thing of the past! You swipe across your iDevice, select and start the track…that’s getting pleasure from rock solid Naim quality.
