| The Flatcap
2x is an external power supply that replaces the
Flatcap2. The improvements to sound quality are
subtle but significant: dynamics are more even
across the audio band, bass lines are more easily
differentiated and the system noise floor is reduced.
The performance improvements are even more obvious
when powering a preamplifier and CD player at
the same time.
The Flatcap 2x can provide exceptionally low noise, dual power supplies
for two separate Series 5 components; a NAC 122x and a CD5x, or NAC
122x and Stageline, for example. The Flatcap 2x transformer has two
separate secondary windings to isolate each of
the dual supplies from the other. It includes
four Naim-tested and selected low-noise regulators
to achieve its exceptional performance.
Physical changes are: a Fraim-friendly
stiffer thicker chassis; a new redesigned transformer
with a higher VA rating, lower impedance and higher
peak current capability. Heatsinks are also significantly
larger.
It can be used with the NAC
202 and NAC 282 preamplifiers, and our SNAXO
electronic crossovers to provide an effective,
low-cost entry into active system operation. It
can be used to power all of the Naim phono stages,
active crossovers and preamplifiers except the
NAC 552 and NAC 252.
