The SUPERLINE is a phono stage from Naim Audio, sitting above the STAGELINE with substantially greater gain and an exceptionally low distortion figure. The SUPERLINE brings Naim's more accomplished current engineering to a serious dedicated phono preamplification format.
Key specs that matter
One single-ended input is provided. Gain is a substantial 64dB - considerably more than the STAGELINE's 35dB, suited to low-output moving-coil cartridges. Total harmonic distortion plus noise is under an exceptionally low 0.005%. At 314 x 87 x 207mm and 7.7kg, the SUPERLINE represents a more substantial commitment than the STAGELINE.
Sound and use context
Expect exceptionally clean, musically engaging phono-stage performance reflecting the substantial 64dB gain combined with the exceptionally low 0.005% distortion figure, representing Naim's more accomplished current phono-stage engineering.
Pairing
Naim's own integrated amplifier and preamplifier catalogue offers natural, brand-coherent pairings within the same broader catalogue.
Alternatives
Naim's own STAGELINE offers a more compact, lower-gain alternative within the same broader phono-stage catalogue.
