Our staff say
Often the technology that filters down from other "more expensive" products in the chain means the next one down in the line in relative terms is not only better value for money but shares a similar level of performance - this could be said for the NAP300 offering performance closer to its bigger brother (NAP500) than the model down (NAP250) -Richard
Product Description
To make way for the new NAP 350 DR monoblocks, our ex demo NAP 300 is available. In excellent condition, boxed and complete. Available to view and demo in our showroom by appointment along with other Naim electronics - please contact us to arrange and discuss trade in options against your old equipment.
Naim NAP 300 DR is a 90W per channel power amplifier and builds on the innovations and successes of its bigger brother, the far more expensive NAP 500 DR, making NAP 300 DR a significant step above NAP 250 DR yet incredible value.
Many years of research went into the NAP 500 DR, as fundamentally new components and technologies had to be perfected before Naim could raise the performance level for power amplifiers. Many of these technical developments, along with the elegant new styling have been applied to the mighty NAP 300 DR. The Naim NAP 300 DR includes a 300 PS Power Supply and Burndy interconnects.
Statement technology
Naim's flagship Statement amplification system was ten years in the making. The research and development project drew on all of Naim's knowledge and expertise, yielding several breakthroughs in technology. Now for 2015 Naim introduced two new technologies from the Statement project into the core range of power amplifiers. Like the flagship Naim NAP 500 DR, the NAP 300 DR is a stereo two-chassis amplifier, one box containing the audio amplifier and the second housing the power supply. Improved earthing arrangements have resulted in an entirely new circuit topology built on a very high quality, anti-resonance main audio circuit board.
Premium components
NAP 300 DR now features the new NA009 transistors first introduced in Statement. In development for over a year, this key component was created in partnership with a specialist semi-conductor manufacturer to achieve the best possible sound quality. The 300 also includes the high power Naim DR (Discrete Regulator) technology used in Statement to provide the smooth, stable power supply we know is critical for the audio electronics to make music come to life.
Premium sound
NAP 300 DR uses outstanding components that provide up to 80 Amps and 350 Watts, negating the need to use parallel pairs of transistors (which always has a negative effect on sound). Anti-vibration, resonance-controlling feet serve to protect the sensitive internal components from resonance and microphonic vibration. These new technologies from Naim Statement, combined with other small improvements to layout and componentry, mean the NAP 300 DR can produce even more of the fundamental musical pace, rhythm and timing that made the originals so popular with music lovers.
We are here to help find the right system for you. As a suggested starting point, you may want to consider partnering the NAP 300 DR with the following:
Separates System:
- NAC 282
- NAC 252
- NAC-N 272
Upgrade Paths:
- SuperCap DR
- Power-Line
A variable speed, virtually noiseless cooling fan is mounted on a large internal heat sink providing long-term stability and the ability to swing a massive 500 VA on transients. The NAP 300 DR is stable into any load and able to drive a 2-Ohm load for long periods of time. The Naim NAP 300 delivers immense power without sacrificing any speed or agility to provide awe-inspiring levels of detail, ambient information and musicality.
