Integrated Naim amplifier census

A Nait red led completely restored

Same here. I’ve owned Nait 1, Nait 2, Nait 5, Nait 5i, Nait 5i (Italic), Nait 5i2, Nait 5Si, Nait XS, SN1 and SN2. The only Nait i have kept is a Naim serviced original Nait 5, with which i use a Flatcap 2, and is my pick of them all.

I agree Gary my mate owns an original Nait 5 with Dynaudio 42s connected sounds superb, there is something about the original 5 that sounds so right.

SuperNait 2

Nait XS 2 (traded in for SN 2)

Both are excellent integrated amps!

On the string nait 1 & 2 I wanted to insert also the 3 but I can’t …
If anyone can do it can insert other boxes of missing integrated amplifiers. Or maybe you give me instructions to correct the list

The only Naim item I’ve owed is my current SN2 that I got a few months ago, I think it’s a very, Very, nice amp.
My favorite Integrated’s have been an Ayon Spirit MKIII, a Devialet D200, and a Plinius 9200 in no particular order. I bought the Naim because I have a very specific place it had to fit. It’s size was good and it sounds much better than I expected!

The best Sounding amps I’ve owned were Audio Research Classic 120 mono’s… A Krell KSA 200, And a Mark Levinson No. 23.5

Stephen_Tate · September 28, 2019, 10:03pm

Ah, the NAIT 3, now you’re talking!

Mechanalogue · September 28, 2019, 10:04pm

SN2
Leak Stereo 30 plus.
Both fantastic amps.

Bow Technologies ZZ one, I still kick myself for selling it. But then, I wouldn’t be here if I kept it.

KJC · September 28, 2019, 11:09pm

Force me onto a desert island (with mains!) and I wouldn’t be sad to have a PMC Cor for company…
