The importance of power supplies has been close to the
heart of Naim philosophy for over twenty years.
Naim research proved that divorcing the main power
supply from a CD player is wholly beneficial, whereas the more
common arrangement of housing the converter circuitry in a separate
box causes many problems.
The Naim XPS power supply is a very sophisticated power
supply with six separately regulated, very low noise outputs,
featuring a toroidal transformer and six power regulators. These
supplies are branched and re-regulated, some twice in the CD player.
The addition of anti-vibration, resonance-controlling
feet compliment the elegant new cast and extruded anti-magnetic
chassis protect the sensitive internal components from resonance and
microphonic vibration.
This supply is required and comes as standard with the
CDS3 but can also be added to the CDX2 CD player, providing a
substantial improvement in sound quality and a possible upgrade path
from one player to another.
Timing, dynamic range and clarity all significantly
improve by adding a Naim XPS to a CDX2. Complex passages become more
understandable, bringing far more involvement and enjoyment from the
music.
- Ultra-low noise CD player power supply.
- Huge toroidal transformer and smoothing capacitors provide
exceptional dynamic stability.
- Six power regulators feeding six completely separately
regulated power outputs.
The new Naim XPS sets the music free, making it an
incredibly effective upgrade to the Naim CDX2, and a critical
component of the Naim CDS3. |
