Naim Audio HiCap Linear Power Supply Selling a Naim Hicap Olive. I use it to pair with the Naim 42.5 preamp. It is in excellent working condition and comes with the 5 pin SNAIC. Condition: Excellent Payment Method: Cash, Bank Transfer Region/State: (VIC) Victoria/Australia By kento 0 Comments AUD $750 Date: October 26, 2025Oct 26
This is a strong deal on the numbers: at A$750, it sits well below the A$851 25th percentile and a long way under the A$1,020 median for recent AUD comparables. Against that spread, it reads as genuine value rather than merely “okay,” especially for a desirable Naim support component.
What makes it worthwhile is the usual Naim logic: the Hicap is one of those upgrades that can bring real gains in drive, grip, and overall composure when paired with compatible Naim preamps or sources. An excellent condition listing at this price is the right place to buy, and the upside is better if it’s been well kept, comes complete, and is ready to slot straight into a system.
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.
