A timeless design
Naim products are designed to be both contemporary and timeless. Their creations forgo any unnecessary adornments that would detract from the performance and sound quality delivered. The design of NVT TT is inspired by previous Naim creations, such as the SuperLine, but also the Statement amplifier. It is razor sharp, combining a sleek design, premium materials and adjustable logo brightness.

The story of Naim and aluminium
Naim’s founder, Julian Vereker, immediately understood the many benefits of aluminium as a material for wrapping Naim electronic components. He knew that delicate audio components are very sensitive to the effects of magnetic fields, unstable temperatures, unwanted vibrations, etc.

The Naim Classic range maximises this highly technical and durable approach, with aluminium housings rivalled only by Statement, their flagship product. Naim chose a superior-quality aluminium, which optimally combines thermal and microphonic properties. The front panels are treated with solid 20mm-thick aluminium billets; heat sinks frame the side panels and 5mm plates cover the top and bottom surfaces of the products. The aluminium is brushed, sandblasted and anodised to guarantee unalterable beauty throughout the product’s life. The New Classic range can be immediately distinguished with one look and one touch, before the first note of music even plays.
