The streaming section of the NDX 2 uses the latest Naim network card featuring lownoise, high-speed low-voltage differential signalling (LVDS) to route the digital audio signal. The higher speed is capable of decoding all HD audio formats at up to 32 bits/384 kHz or DSD128. Rather than the source acting as the digital timing master, our new streaming board turns things around and allows our DAC clock to control the flow of audio data. The data is integer-over-sampled in a SHARC DSP to an incredible 40-bit accuracy before it’s fed to the Burr-Brown DAC.
The NDX 2 features an integrated low-noise power supply with a custom-designed toroidal transformer and separate windings for the digital and analogue sections. However, the player can be upgraded with an external XPS DR or 555 PS DR power supply, giving you a marked increase in sonic authority and emotion.
During the development of the NDX 2, our engineers examined every detail, from mechanical construction, component selection and board layout. The result is a network player worthy of the Naim badge, with a sound that’s rich, detailed and engaging.
Excellent sound
Does not display the integrated album cover coverage in DSD (.dsf) files
This device has a very high -quality sound. If someone is looking for a device for high-quality reproduction of digital material, you should pay attention to this device, and be sure to listen to it.
The functionality is similar to the NAIM Devices of the Uniti line.
He works in tandem with the Naim Super Nait 3 integrated amplifier (connected by a standard 5-Pin Naim interblock cable).
As a source of musical material, USB-disks and Naim Uniti Core are used.
It is controlled through the standard NAIM application.

Delightful sound, comfortable application
Sometimes the screen freezes
I updated the system for components with the more affordable Naim Uniti Atom - received a more solid sound, preserving all the convenience of the NAIM streaming platform. I am very pleased with the sound - it works in tandem with the Naim Supernait 3. The music loses to both the ROON and directly through the ecquations in Todal, Spotify.
