Performance and versatility combined; the NAC 332 can be easily configured to suit your audio world. This preamplifier is the digitally controlled, analogue centre of your system. Every audio stage is meticulously designed using discrete transistors. The NAC 332 also features a precision fixed resistor volume control and a class-A headphone amplifier, with XLR and RCA outputs.

  • The NAC332 can map any input button to any of the 8 input sockets, such as balanced XLR, DIN and RCA, allowing simple connection to any audio source. It also features a powered DIN socket for connection with the NVC TT phono stage.
  • The front panel has a quarter inch headphone socket with a 1.5W state-of-the-art headphone amplifier behind. On the rear panel, twin outputs of XLR and RCA allow connection to a variety of power amplifiers.The finest componentsThe innovative electronic circuits give the NAC 332 an excellent audio performance. The best components, such as through-hole resistors used in the volume control, have been selected.
  • The architecture of the Statement volume control is carried over to the NAC 332, using reed relays to switch between the volume resistors. This ensures premium sound quality, the ability to have adjustable input sensitivity and the capability to set a maximum volume level.
  • Timeless and contemporary
  • Nothing detracts from the NAC 332’s performance. All our creations have a simple design, with outstanding sound quality at the forefront of our products. The NAC 332 combines a sleek design, premium materials, adjustable logo brightness, and engineered touch points, such as the precision raced bearing volume control, to give you an unrivalled listening experience.
  • Inter product communication
  • As easy to use as a single-box system, with bi-directional wireless inter-product communication, the NAC 332 connects seamlessly to the NSS 333 streamer. Optical control also synchronises with the New Classic power amplifiers, such as the NAP 350.
  • Why aluminium?
  • Not only did we give our creations a sleek and uniform design, but our founder, Julian Vereker, understood the many benefits of aluminium. He recognized why it was the most effective material for encasing Naim electronic components. He knew that delicate audio components are susceptible to the effects of magnetic fields, unstable temperatures and unwanted vibrations.

About In-Store only, or click and collect products....

  • Different suppliers and manufacturers have individual and differing policies regarding shipping on some or all of their products, some will require that you physically come in to the store, to get the benefit of advice and demonstration and, in addition, some items require professional installation and/or setup as part of our dealer agreement. This also ensures that you get the very best performance from your investment.

    Although not all our items are available as direct 'add to basket' we can often arrange to deliver the items and install the equipment ourselves.

    There is usually a charge for these services so please contact us first and we can discuss any queries and options with you.

    If in any doubt give us a call or pop in and we can discuss the best and most convenient way to make your purchase, we are here to help!

  • We do indeed stock many of the items featured on our website, but due to the large range of equipment we offer and the variety of finishes and options on some products it would be impractical to stock all products in all finishes. Some products will be special order, and stock levels rise and fall on popular items, so if you are coming in to see a particular item please contact us first to check we have it available. A few brands are mail order only and we do not generally have them on display in the showroom. The showroom is well stocked and the items on display for demonstration change regularly.

  • If you know exactly what you want - that's great, we can provide. However - many of our customers find that a product demonstration and comparison has helped them make the correct decision for them. You can ask any questions and listen in a relaxed, no pressure environment before you purchase- We have 30 years of experience in making customers happy and we may be able to suggest something you might not have considered. We know how careful component matching can make the difference between a system you can listen to or really enjoy for many years! Just give us a call in advance so we can give you our full attention.
