At £394, this looks like a strong bargain versus the recent used market: it sits well below the £501 25th percentile and far under the £608 median, so the asking price is clearly attractive. For a buyer who wants a classic Naim preamp without paying the usual premium, that puts this in very good-value territory.
The appeal here is straightforward: the NAC 62 is a well-regarded, lively-sounding preamp with the timing, drive, and musical engagement Naim fans tend to value. If the Cables & Accessories are genuinely included and the unit is clean and working properly, the package adds real practicality and upside. At this price, the main thing to verify is basic functionality and that any needed power-supply arrangement is clear before buying.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
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.
