Naim Nait 2 Integrated Amplifier (1992)

Here we have a lovely example of the Nait 2 Integrated Amplifier from British experts Naim Audio. In the Olive finish, half-width casework and dating from 1992 this unit is in very good condition, with a couple of minor blemishes – please see photographs. It will come professionally packaged with a DIN-RCA interconnect and our standard 3 month warranty.
Naim Say….
The Nait is intended to bring Naim Audio sound quality within reach of people who are buying their first serious hi-fi system. An integrated amplifier has both the preamplifier and the power amplifier stages fitted into a single case.
This apparent simplicity actually requires a great deal of cunning. Low continuous power output is balanced by a very large peak current capacity, so there are no restrictions on the type or size of loudspeakers that may be used. Nevertheless please do not expect the impossible. The Nait will perform bravely if you demand too much volume when driving difficult loudspeakers, but the wonderful sound we designed for it will be gradually compromised. And please remember that like the rest of our equipment the Nait thrives on good quality sources and careful installation of the whole audio system.
The Nait integrated amplifier has four switch selectable inputs: one for moving magnet phono cartridges, and three for high-level sources – tuner, tape and auxiliary (which is suitable for the connection of a CD player). The phono input uses high quality, gold-plated RCA phono sockets, while other inputs use 5-pin DIN sockets.
The tape socket provides for both recording and replay. A dual function, front-panel switch provides tape monitor and output mute functions. The Nait also provides an effective means of upgrading when higher sound levels are required. A simple conversion bypasses the power amplifier stage allowing the Nait to be used as a preamplifier when connected to a larger power amplifier such as the NAP 90 or NAP 140.
