Compact Size, Expansive Sound

Customer Reviews Overview Features Technology Reviews & Awards Book a Demo Support

The NAP 100 has been discontinued but remains a classic expression of traditional Naim Audio power amplifier engineering. While its dimensions are conveniently compact – just a mere 20cm wide – its performance is seriously dynamic and expansive.

The NAP 100 is perfect for a number of applications, adding a dose of Naim Audio musicality to a wide variety of systems. Paired with our DAC-V1 digital-to-analogue converter, it becomes the power behind a high-end system to unleash the music from your PC or Mac. Add a UnitiServe to the equation and you create a full hi-fi system that divorces your listening experience from the desktop and allows you complete control from our n-Serve iOS app.

Features

50W per channel output into 8 ohms
Dual mono power amplifier design
Audiophile grade hand-selected components
Linear power supply with a large toroidal transformer
Pair with the DAC-V1 and UnitiServe for compact, high-end music system

Technology & Craft

Despite its small size, the NAP 100 packs a serious punch when it comes to sound quality. Delivering 50 watts per channel into 8 Ohms, and 75 watts into 4 Ohms, its dual mono design is based on the circuit topology found in our reference all-in-one player, the SuperUniti.

Our engineers also took inspiration from classic Naim Audio power amplifier design in developing the NAP 100. A large toroidal transformer and hand-matched, hand-wired critical componentry allow it to bring new levels of clarity and vitality to your music.

“The Naim delivered a beautifully poised performance with a precise and detailed delivery. As a result it was wonderfully musical, with a smooth but lively sound that retained plenty of dynamism.”
