The AV2 is designed to be used in addition to an existing stereo system
or as part of a stand-alone home theatre. The NAIT5, for example, has
a dedicated AV input, which if used in conjunction with the AV2 amplifies
the right and left channels. The remaining channels, surround and centre,
are amplified using our three-channel amplifier, the NAPV175. [Please
note that for DTS use a further NAP150 will be required.] Our low-vibration, cast and machined aluminium chassis and cover house this exciting Naim AV component. Microphonic degradation of sound quality is greatly reduced by our Naim low-energy-transfer feet system and unique decoupling pillars for circuit board mounting.
- Integrated Power Supply: The integrated power supply uses
a custom design toroidal transformer with separate analogue
and digital windings and additional screening which reduces
RFI from the mains supply.
- Time Aligned Analogue Filter Circuitry: Designed and used
in our state of the art preamplifier designs, TAC (Time Aligned
Analogue Filter Circuitry) is used within the AV2 and features
high grade, close tolerance Polystyrene capacitors and metal
film resistors.
- VIPS: Versatile Input Switching means that inputs 1 and 2
can be used as multichannel inputs for use with systems such
as SACD or DVDA or as additional analogue inputs via Naims
common ground DIN socketry.
- The AV2 is fully compatible with Dolby Digital Decoding, Dolby
Digital EX, Dolby Pro-Logic II, DTS, DTS-ES and DTS NEO6.
- 7.1 multi-channel input: VIP- to connect an additional external
7.1 channel decoder, DVDA,SACD or further future formats. Or
Input Stereo preampMode so that the AV2 can be used in a stand-alone
stereo system as well as an AV decoder.
- Six Stereo Analogue Inputs: 3 DIN and 3 RCA PLUS a tape loop.
- Four Digital inputs: 2 coax and 2 optical which can support
PCM, AC-3 and DTS. DAC performance is 24bit/96kHz.
- Three Digital Record Outputs: 2 coax and 1 optical.
- RS232 Port for upgrades or for configuration into multi-room
systems.
- RC5 input for multi-room applications.
- VSwitch Port for connection to Naims VS1 video switching
and on-screen display controller.
- Digitally Controlled Volume: All outputs can be independently
controlled making set-up user friendly.
- Digitally Controlled Bass Management: If a sub is not being
used the software builds a virtual subwoofer channel and adds
this channel to the front channels.
- Programmable Input Selection: all inputs can be associated
to a source type, i.e. DVD, CD, or TUNER etc. This enables the
processor to select the relevant decoding required. If the source
is video as well as audio the AV2 will instruct the video switch
to automatically select the relevant input.
- Separate A-D and D-A converters using state of the art 128x
over sampling which are equipped to handle 24-bit music
and movie sound.
- LED Display technology to minimise electrical noise: as with
Naim CD players the display can be turned off for better sound
quality. If the AV2 is connected to the VS1 video switcher the
display information is presented on your screen.
- On-screen Display via Naim VS1 video switch unit.
- Future-proof due to full software upgrade design track.
