The Naim Uniti Nova is a high-end all-in-one amplifier that offers a fantastic sound experience in a stylish and modern package. With its advanced technology and precision design, the Uniti Nova can deliver a sound that is deep, nuanced and full of detail that will delight even the most demanding music lovers.

One of the most notable features of the Uniti Nova is its amplifier section. This unit features an amplifier section that delivers up to 80 watts per channel at 8 ohms, meaning it can drive even the most demanding speakers with ease. To ensure the sound is as pure and clear as possible, the amplifier section is also designed with Naim's signature DR (Discrete Regulator) technology, which helps reduce noise and distortion.

Amplifier with Naim's innovative DR power supply

In the Naim Uniti Nova, DR technology enables precise and rich sound reproduction with a high degree of detail and clarity. This is particularly important when reproducing complex and dynamic pieces of music, where even the slightest distortion can degrade the sound quality.

DR stands for "Discrete Regulator", which means that the regulator is built from separate and independent components instead of an integrated chip. DR technology is a power supply technology that ensures that the amplifier receives a stable and clean power supply, which is essential for high-quality sound reproduction. Naim's DR technology is designed to remove noise from the power supply that can ruin the sound quality of the amplifier. It does this by reducing interference from other devices in your home, so you achieve the best possible sound quality.

An amplifier with built-in DAC and streaming

Uniti Nova also features a high-quality DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) that allows for the playback of high-resolution digital music files. With support for up to 32-bit/384 kHz PCM and DSD128 files, Uniti Nova can play music with a detailed and natural sound that even the most demanding listeners will appreciate.

The Naim Uniti Nova has a range of streaming options and can stream music from almost any source, including TIDAL, Spotify Connect, Chromecast, Bluetooth and Apple AirPlay. In addition, the device also has a built-in internet radio and can stream music from your computer or NAS drive via DLNA. It is almost impossible to find a streaming service that the Naim Uniti Nova cannot stream from.

Functionality and design

The Naim Uniti Nova is crafted from an impressive aluminium construction, ensuring a solid and reliable unit. The design is simple and elegant, and with a glass front panel and LCD screen that displays album art, song titles and other information about the music being played, the unit appears both modern and timeless.

Uniti Nova has a wide range of connectivity options, including digital inputs (2 optical, 2 coaxial and 1 USB), analogue inputs (2 RCA and 1 3.5mm jack), an RCA subwoofer output and an HDMI ARC input so you can connect your TV and get sound directly from the unit. There's also a 6.3mm jack output that allows you to connect headphones.

Outstanding materials with acoustic properties

The Naim Uniti Nova is equipped with heatsinks on the sides, designed to effectively dissipate heat from the unit. This is important because electronic components used in amplifiers can become very hot during use and if not cooled properly, this can lead to overheating and damage to the unit. By having heatsinks on the sides, the Uniti Star can effectively dissipate heat and ensure that the unit operates optimally for a long time.

The Uniti Nova's enclosure is made of aluminium, a material chosen for several reasons. Firstly, aluminium is lightweight yet strong and durable, making it ideal for protecting the unit from damage while reducing its overall weight. Secondly, aluminium is a material with a high conductivity, meaning it is able to conduct heat away from the unit more effectively than other materials.

Aluminum is also interesting when it comes to sound quality. Aluminum has a certain rigidity, which means it can help reduce unwanted vibrations in the cabinet that can negatively affect sound quality. Aluminum therefore contributes to a more precise and detailed sound reproduction.
