Although certain Naim amplifiers provide a very adequate
power supply to the partnering preamplifier, the use of a separate
Naim ultra-low noise power supply brings substantially improved
musicality to the whole system. Simply being separate from the
amplifiers ensures correct earthing and hum-free operation, while
the large toroidal transformer and generous high quality smoothing
capacitors provide exceptional dynamic stability.
Each of the power outputs use specially selected
regulators for optimum performance. The Hi-Cap can be used to
power all of the Naim phono stages, active crossovers and preamplifiers
except the NAC 552 and NAC 252; in the case of the NAC 282 preamplifier
a second Hi-Cap may be used, bringing further improvements.
The addition of anti-vibration, resonance-controlling feet compliment the elegant new cast and extruded anti-magnetic chassis to protect the sensitive internal components from resonance and microphonic vibration.
The audible benefits from adding a Hi-Cap are fundamental to the
music: improving timing, dynamic range, clarity and order. Particularly
complex music becomes both easier to understand and listen to.
Inclusion of a Hi-Cap offers the additional benefit of allowing
the preamplifier to be left switched on constantly, independently
of the power amplifier, keeping the unit's complex circuitry fully
stabilised at all times.
- Ultra-low noise preamplifier and electronic crossover power supply.
- Huge toroidal transformer and smoothing capacitors provide exceptional dynamic stability.
The new Naim Hi-Cap sets free the musicality and
dynamic range of a hi-fi system, making an incredibly effective
upgrade to a preamplifier, power amplifier combination.
