The Naim FlatCap-2 is a beloved external power supply that significantly cleans up power delivery for Naim’s XS and 2-series systems, making it a standout upgrade for owners of those amps. Listed at A$687, this FlatCap-2 is a strong deal, sitting well below the 25th percentile (A$988) of recent AUD comparables and far under the median of A$1,292.
This isn’t just cheap—it’s a genuine bargain for a unit that delivers measurable noise reduction and tighter bass when paired with compatible Naim gear. Even if the condition is unconfirmed, the price offers enough upside to justify a quick inspection or negotiation. For hi-fi enthusiasts building or refining a Naim XS/2 system, this is a rare opportunity to secure a top-tier power supply at a fraction of typical used market value.

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.
