Naim ND 555 Network Streamer Player with 555 PS Power supply10/10 Aesthetic ConditionWorking condition 10/10Complete with all accessories as originally, partial documents
Condition is unknown, so I’d treat this as a price-first decision: at US$23,030, it sits well above the US$20,831 75th percentile and is clearly ambitious versus the recent comparable market. Against a median of US$18,318 and a 25th percentile of US$16,217, you’re paying a meaningful premium, so this only makes sense if the unit is exceptionally clean, fully current, and ideally complete with box, remote, and any original accessories.
That said, the ND 555 is one of Naim’s most respected network streamers: it’s prized for scale, timing, and that very controlled, rhythmically alive presentation that Naim owners chase. If the seller is original-owner, light-use, and can document service history and included parts, the upside is real—but at this price I’d want proof that it’s not just nice, but fully sorted.
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.
