Our example of the NAC 252 comes complete with a SuperCap power supply. They are in excellent condition and come with full original factory packaging, remote control, manual, mains cable, Burndy SNAIC interconnect cables. Plus of course our standard three month warranty. Naim Say…. Like many of our products, the NAC 252 stems from good stock: it descends directly from the NAC 52, still one of the finest preamplifiers ever made. Capable of exceptional clarity, its power supply components reside in a separate enclosure: the SuperCap power supply unit. This ensures optimum isolation from electromagnetic interference and provides each of the ten audio circuits with an independent, fully regulated supply voltage. Additionally, separate power supplies for the digital control and switching circuitry further isolate the audio circuitry from noise. It’s this attention to detail that makes the NAC 252 so special – that, and our determination to let nothing stand in the way of your musical enjoyment. Many designs were explored for the NAC 252 and a complete review of the circuit topology and components took place in accordance with the developments pioneered in preamplifiers such as the NAC52. Hundreds of hours were spent listening to various designs, ensuring that the harmony between music and technology was always maintained. Ten independently regulated power supplies are fed from the matching SuperCap power supply. Totally separate regulated supplies for the digital control and switching ensure no noise is generated in the audio circuits.

The importance of power supplies has been close to the heart of Naim philosophy for over twenty years. Although certain Naim amplifiers provide a very adequate power supply to the partnering pre-amplifier, the use of a separate Naim ultra-low noise power supply brings substantially improved musicality to the whole system. Simply being separate from the amplifiers ensures correct earthing and hum-free operation, while the large toroidal transformer and generous high quality smoothing capacitors provide exceptional dynamic stability. Each of the multiple power outputs use specially selected regulators for optimum performance. The SuperCap can be used to power all of the Naim pre-amplifiers (except the NAC 552), phono stages and active crossovers and is the only choice for supplying power to the NAC 252 pre-amplifier. The addition of anti-vibration, resonance-controlling feet compliment the elegant new cast and extruded anti-magnetic chassis to protect the sensitive internal components from resonance and microphonic vibration The audible benefits from adding a SuperCap are fundamental to the music: improving timing, dynamic range, clarity and order. Particularly complex music becomes both easier to understand and listen to. Inclusion of a SuperCap offers the additional benefit of allowing the pre-amplifier to be left switched on constantly, independently of the power amplifier, keeping the unit’s complex circuitry fully stabilised at all times.

Witch Hat Morgana Burndy Naim 52/PS or 252/Supercap. Upgrade cable for Naim. Suitable for 52/52PS or 252/Supercap (the way I used it). Note this will not work in any other configurations of Naim kit. A significant upgrade over the standard Naim burndy with particularly improved sound stage and detail in my system. The company recently folded (probably due to being unable to meet demand) and these are now quite sought after with many potential customers waiting for supply that never came. Complete with box and in perfect condition

Save over £3000 and grab a bargain with one of Naim Audios best preamplifiers. Key Features Support for both DIN and RCA inputs to facilitate connection into a wider range of systems SuperCap power supply (with fourteen independently regulated voltages) required Totally separate regulated supplies for digital control and switching circuitry Precision rotary potentiometers with precious metal wipers AV bypass mode for simple connection to an existing AV system Powered input for use with StageLine or SuperLine phono stages Naim NAC 252 Preamplifier The NAC 252 is a direct descendant of the highly regarded NAC 52 preamplifier, a model that even to this day is considered to be one of the finest preamplifiers ever built. Capable of an outstanding level of clarity, the power supply componentry within the 252 is housed in a separate enclosure; the SuperCap power supply unit. This guarantees the best possible isolation from electromagnetic interference and provides each of the units ten audio circuits with an independent and fully regulated supply voltage. In addition to this, individual power supplies also enhance the digital control and switching circuitry and further isolate the audio circuitry from the noise that may otherwise disturb the quality of the signal. It is this level of attention to detail that Naim has become famous for and that the 252 sets its standard by. Who is Naim? Naim Audio has a special place in British audio, thanks to its founder and inspirational leader Julian Vereker, a hugely talented mechanical and electronic engineer with a passion for, amongst many things, music. Founded in 1973, Naim has always had a firm philosophy of music first, measurements second - each Naim product is extensively auditioned as part of the product development process to make sure that it delivers clear, emotional music-making ability. Naim products are designed to bring the closest facsimile of a live music event into your home listening environment, to give you maximum pleasure from your music collection. Many of the Naim products are evolutions of previous designs, sometimes incorporating quite small changes to the mechanical or electronic design. However, these incremental changes make a large overall improvement in the music performance of each product. Unlike other audio brands, built-in obsolescence is not part of the plan - Naim products can often be upgraded in performance by the addition of several different levels of the external power supply. In this way, the owner of a Naim component can upgrade his system without having to continually sell existing equipment. Unusually, Naim recommends the use of DIN-compatible interconnecting cables, as the earthing integrity is superior to the industry standard phono connector. Having said that, Naim products often come equipped with both types of connectors, to allow easy mixing and matching to third-party equipment.
