Naim NPX 300

Naim NPX 300 - Optimized power and performance

With the new NPX300 power supply from Naim, you can achieve even higher performance from your 200 Series sources and preamplifiers. The NPX 300 deactivates the internal power supply, resulting in an immediate reduction in noise, and provides a superior and cleaner power supply. The ability to upgrade through external power supplies is almost the backbone of Naim's design philosophy, as it provides less interference, vibration, larger transformers, larger capacitor banks and more precise regulation, all of which give you better sound from your components.

When you get to the high-end segment, some of the biggest improvements you can make are to upgrade the power supply to your components' circuitry. Naim believes this improvement is best achieved through linear power supplies based on toroidal transformers. The difference between having an NPX300 and having one in your system is like going from a 6-cylinder to a 12-cylinder. The difference is night and day, and it's due to Naim's patented discrete regulators, which ensure ultra-precise voltage regulation and ultra-low noise levels for your components. The Naim NPX 300 is the perfect match for the new NSC 222 , NSS 333 and NAP 250 .

Highlights:

• Large linear power supply with Naim's patented DR technology
• First-class components
• 6 Naim DR modules for ultra-precise voltage regulation
• Naim's own Burndy cables to power the NSC 222 are included in the price
• Backward compatible
• Can supply e.g. NDX, NDX 2 and NAC-N 272 via S-XPS Burndykabel

NPX 300 - Technology & design

The NPX 300 powers your system in a silent, fluid way, allowing the preamplifier to concentrate on its main task: controlling the signal. In addition to improving the performance of the NSC 222 preamplifier and streamer, the NPX 300 can be used to upgrade several Naim products, lending them immense flexibility over time. It is also possible to add two NPX 300 power supplies to a single preamplifier or a single source. The first can be dedicated to powering the digital sections, and the second to powering the analog sections.

Controlled power

The NPX 300 incorporates a new transformer, which works with six exclusive Naim power regulators (DR technology - Discrete Regulator), providing a cleaner power to your system. Less "noise" means a better sound! It works perfectly with the 200 Series products, and is also compatible with the NDX2 or even the NAC-N 272 – you just need the specific cables.

Inspired by the best

At Naim, all our choices are made with the aim of creating a unique emotional connection with music, and offering you the best products in their category. The NPX300 includes a certain number of innovations used on the flagship Naim 555PS DR power supply, such as the separation of the digital and analog power supplies via dedicated Burndy cables.

The story of Naim and aluminium

Our founder, Julian Vereker, immediately understood the many benefits of aluminum as a material for wrapping Naim electronic components. He knew that delicate audio components are very sensitive to the effects of magnetic fields, unstable temperatures, unwanted vibrations, etc. While other manufacturers were bending thin sheets of steel, Naim used thick plates of aluminium.

The Naim Classic range maximizes this highly technical and durable approach, with aluminum housings rivaled only by Statement, our flagship product. Naim chose a superior-quality aluminium, which optimally combines thermal and microphonic properties. The front panels are treated with solid 20mm-thick aluminum billets; heat sinks frame the side panels and 5mm plates cover the top and bottom surfaces of the products. The aluminum is brushed, sandblasted and anodised to guarantee unalterable beauty throughout the product's life. The New Classic range can be immediately distinguished with one look and one touch, before the first note of music even plays.
