Naim NAC-N 272
NAC-N 272 combines a network player with an analogue preamplifier, leaving speaker drive to a separate power amplifier. That arrangement gives a classic Naim system a tidy control centre, with analogue and digital inputs for the sources you already enjoy.
- Two roles, one enclosure: Network playback and analogue volume control share a single component.
- Flexible source connections: Analogue inputs, coaxial and optical digital inputs, USB and network playback support a varied collection.
