The Naim NAP 500 DR is a top–of-the-line 500 series power amplifier, representing a monumental expression of Naim Audio amplifier technology. Its design has been honed over six years of collaboration with suppliers of audiophile components, and assembly of each copy by the most experienced specialists of Naim Audio in Salisbury takes several days. It is the attention to detail, as well as its remarkable power, that allows the NaimNAP500 VK to make music exciting.

    The main board of the device is very high-quality and resistant to resonance phenomena. The NAP 250 uses output transistors specially designed for the NAP 500. Each of these high-quality transistors can withstand up to 80 amps and 350 watts, which eliminates the need to use paired transistors (because this always negatively affects the sound quality). In addition, the 007 transistors are used in a fully regulated power supply, which guarantees the highest performance.

    The NAP 350 combines perfectly with the NSS 333 streamer and the NAC 332 preamp to create a complete system. The NAP 350 is a pure Class AB linear amplifier powered by fully adjustable DR power supplies, delivering 175 watts at 8 ohms and 345 watts at 4 ohms. It can deliver peak power of up to 1.7 kW to control impedance failures of complex speaker crossover circuits. The input is via a balanced XLR connector, which ensures industry-wide compatibility.
