Power amp and pre-amp and Hicap PSU all have had little use as have mostly been in storage. I have thoroughly tested this system and it operates perfectly. Only the led in the switch has been replaced. There are Naim RIAA pcbs in the NAC72. There are Naim boxes and cables included. Seller is a retired high end audio engineer. Can deliver up to 200 mi from Sheffield. Edwards phono NOT inc.
This is firmly a buyer’s market for this category at the moment, and at £1,999 this asks well above the typical used range we’re seeing: median £700, with the 75th percentile at £1,150. That makes it an ambitious listing, not a fair-market buy, unless there’s something exceptional about provenance, servicing, or extras that isn’t yet spelled out.
The upside is that this is a highly regarded Naim power supply, and when it’s part of a matched system it can add real grip, pace, and overall control. If the unit is genuinely clean and fully working, that’s a plus—but at this level I’d want proof of service history, correct cabling, and a clear explanation of why it’s priced so far above comparable listings before considering it.
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.
