The new NAIT 50 Limited Edition

Interesting choice to slightly modify the logo positioning while getting the rest of the aesthetic fairly close to original.

Hi @jhsnider,

There was no standard logo. Naim had several versions of the old logo and we used the one we liked most :slight_smile:

The Nait 50 is a mix between the green LED Nait and the product guide.

I sent the below drawing to Geoff who drew the logo in the 1980s:

As you can see the red and green original Naits had two different logos.
Other products had more versions as did printed material and adverts.

Cheers
Steve

Interesting! Thanks for that. I was noticing the differing spacing on the red light vs the 50.

Well I canā€™t wait for mine to come in. Bought some new Neat Elite Classics and an Eversolo DMP-A6 streamer to go with it. I know Iā€™m taking a risk but loved the Elite Classics at the Bristol Hi-Fi show and happy to take a punt on the streamer. Will let you all know how it all works out.

Wow, those new Elite would love staying in my house - Iā€™m sure. :grin:
Bob knows how to make speakers.
Eversolo seem to be the latest hype, I just canā€™t follow the streamer market tempo, I do use a Mu-so for radio though.

Actually having stopped in a traffic queue outside the dealer in question, I can see that they do have a NAIT 50 in the window today.

Whereas I have a moment of real peril tomorrow as I have nothing special to do and my wife will be away for the day. And the shop in question is only 20 mins walk awayā€¦

OKā€¦ :slight_smile:

  • The box is not so easy to openā€¦ very good sealing :slight_smile:
  • It is deeper than Nait 2
  • the surface is more modern as black series
  • The input selection is perfect - with clacking sound
  • it is very well done
  • The Alps Pot is a dream - THANKS naim for making him without remote! I donā€™t want to miss this feeling
  • BUT - The LED is really very bright. Need to get used to it.

Soundingā€¦
he is on air for 2 hours ā€¦
Out of the box.

  • Open, spacious, a lot of detail, very involvingā€¦

Will do a shoutout with Nait 2! :slight_smile:

More to come!
