Our staff say
Acquiring many of the features from the 500-range flagship NAC 552, this top Classic range pre amplifier is a sweet spot in Naim's range - not mind bogglingly expensive but reassuringly not cheap either. A pre amplifier that should keep you happy for life, its that good -Richard
Product Description
Naim NAC 252 stems from one of Naim's finest preamplifiers; the NAC 52. It delivers audio with exceptional detail and clarity housing its power supply components in the separate SuperCap DR unit to effectively isolate electromagnetic interference.
Technology and Craft
Many designs were explored for the NAC 252 and a complete review of the circuit topology and components took place in accordance with the developments pioneered in preamplifiers such as the NAC52. Hundreds of hours were spent listening to various designs, ensuring that the harmony between music and technology was always maintained.
Ten independently regulated power supplies are fed from the matching SuperCap power supply. Each of the ten audio circuits are supplied with an independent and fully regulated supply voltage.Additionally, separate power supplies for the digital control and switching circuitry further isolate the audio circuitry from noise.
We are here to help find the right system for you. As a suggested starting point, you may want to consider partnering the NAC 282 with the following:
