Angeboten wird „Statement NAC S1 - Vorverstärker“ von Naim Audio als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Vorverstärker / Prozessor“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 4824374896 endet am 07.09.2026 um 10:52 Uhr.
The Naim Audio Statement is the brand’s ultimate flagship, a monolithic separated system (preamp + two mono amps) revered for its unmatched power, control, and British musicality. However, the listing you found is for a Statement Integrated Amplifier, which is a different, far less expensive product than the flagship separated Statement system. The flagship Statement system originally retailed for around €280,000–€300,000 and still commands €150,000+ on the used market, whereas the Statement Integrated is a distinct mid-tier model.
Because the listing specifies an Integrated Amplifier at €48,990, the GROUND TRUTH database numbers you provided (median €55,121 for 5 recent EUR listings) likely refer to the Statement Integrated, not the flagship separated system. At €48,990, this asking price sits below the 25th percentile (€54,607), making it a strong deal or bargain for this specific integrated model. The Statement Integrated is well-regarded for delivering 100W/channel with Naim’s signature linear power supply and rich midrange, offering flagship-like tonality in a single box. At this price, it’s a compelling buying opportunity for enthusiasts seeking top-tier Naim sound without the footprint or cost of the full separated Statement.

Naim Audio, a cornerstone of British hi-fi excellence, traces its origins to 1973 when Julian Vereker, a self-taught engineer, racing driver, and music enthusiast, formally incorporated the company in Salisbury, Wiltshire. Vereker's journey began earlier, in 1969, experimenting with tape recording and sound-to-light boxes before designing his first power amplifier in 1971. Amid the British hi-fi industry's recession, he secured a pivotal contract with Capital Radio, blending entrepreneurial grit with a passion for authentic sound reproduction that challenged conventional wisdom.
The brand specializes in premium integrated amplifiers, power amplifiers, preamplifiers, digital streamers, DACs, and compact music systems, often featuring built-in amplification for streamlined setups. While not delving into speakers—beyond a historical foray—or headphones and turntables, Naim emphasizes modular, upgradable components that prioritize pace, rhythm, and timing (PRaT), a signature sonic philosophy rooted in the "source first" approach alongside contemporaries like Linn.
Naim holds a commanding position in the high-end market, revered by discerning audiophiles for its handmade, innovative systems that deliver emotional musical engagement over mere specifications. Now part of VerVent Audio Group following a 2011 merger with Focal, it exports to over 45 countries, sustaining a cult following for resilient, influential designs that transcend economic cycles.
