At £1,328, this sits right on the median of the recent used market, so it reads as a fair, market-aligned asking price rather than a bargain or an ambitious ask. It is also above the 25th percentile of £1,274 and just below the 75th percentile of £1,394, which is exactly where a healthy, normal listing should land.
That makes it a sensible buy if the unit is clean and functioning as described. This model is well liked for combining Naim’s lively, timing-led presentation with enough grip and control to drive a good range of speakers convincingly, so value depends more on condition and provenance than on chasing a discount. If it’s tidy, well cared for, and ideally complete with the original box, remote, and any receipts, it’s a solid opportunity at this price.
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.
