Naim NAC N-272 special offer
20 November 2019
We don’t really do Black Friday, but this year we’re tapping one toe on the bandwagon with our own rather tasty Naim NAC N-272 offer ?.
Until 31st December, we’re offering two fantastic deals on a new 272:
- Trade in your old Mu-so, Qb or UnitiQute and get back what you paid for it
- No trade in? No problem, we’ll give you a half price Naim Uniti Core music server (saving £950 on Uniti Core, hard disk drives extra)
A brilliant streaming pre-amplifier boasting an impressive array of inputs including high-resolution (up to 24bit/192kHz) UPnP streaming, Spotify Connect, iRadio, Bluetooth (aptX), USB, multiroom, TIDAL music streaming support and an optional DAB/FM module. Six digital and three analogue inputs cover integration with a wide range of sources from CD and games consoles to phono stages. Pair with a NAP 250DR power amplifier and you have a dynamite two-box system.
Naim Audio have released some great new streamers recently – Uniti range, ND555, NDX2, ND5XS2 – but the NAC N-272 is still pretty difficult to beat.
Drop in for a listen to the NAC 272/NAP 250DR combo, or email Rob for details.

Why you should always clean records
7 January 2019
The condition of vinyl records has a direct impact on their sound quality. It’s common knowledge that records need the occasional clean; used record purchases especially should always be cleaned before they go anywhere near your turntable and stylus. Dirty records not only sound bad, but they also exacerbate stylus wear and contaminate your turntable – spreading the muck across your precious vinyl collection.What isn’t always common knowledge however, is that brand new vinyl needs cleaning too – ideally before it hits your turntable. The reason for this is two-fold: static charge & factory grime.
