Product Description
Naim SuperLine is a very high performance moving-coil phono stage built in the aluminium Reference enclosure with an anodised front panel. It brings the latest analogue electronic design and environmental isolation techniques on the most delicate moving-coil phono signal.
Best of Vinyl
The SuperLine requires an external power supply - either the power supply output of an appropriate Naim preamplifier or the SUPERNAIT and NAIT XS integrated amplifiers, or, for optimum performance, a dedicated FlatCap XS, HiCap or SuperCap. Vinyl replay makes a huge contribution to the enjoyment of recorded music. At its best, vinyl has a uniquely engaging and musical quality, and with the launch of the SuperLine phono stage, the best of vinyl has just got better. SuperLine brings out all that's best in vinyl replay - timing, pitch accuracy, clarity, detail, and the unmistakable naturalness that records can deliver in abundance.
High Performance
The heart of the SuperLine is a new, two-stage single-ended Class A discrete amplifier with part-passive RIAA filtering that runs off 25 internally regulated power supplies and features the transistor "quiet room" thermal isolation technique originally developed for the NAP 500 power amplifier. Environmental isolation is also ensured by the SuperLine's massive sub-chassis and high-Q spring suspension system - used here for the first time on a phono amplifier.
We are here to help find the right system for you. As a suggested starting point, you may want to consider partnering the SuperLine with the following:
Separates System:
- NAC 252
- NAP 300 DR
- SuperCap
- Ovator S-600
Upgrade Paths:
- FlatCap XS
- Hi-Line
- HiCap DR
- SuperCap DR
Duplicate phono and BNC sockets provide input versatility, and cartridge impedance matching adjustment is provided by four resistive and three capacitive load plugs. In combination with the SuperLine's internal input load, twenty different standard load combinations are possible.
The SuperLine is also available in a lower gain model, SuperLine E. The SuperLine E is identical to the standard SuperLine except that is has been designed for use with cartridges that have a higher output voltage than most popular moving coils: for example high output moving coils.
