They have embraced the digital streaming revolution with gusto, no more so than on the rather clever preamplifier \/ streamer &#8211; the NAC-N 172 XS. This is one of our favourite new products in the Glasgow shop at the moment.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;ll leave it up to Naim to explain:<br \/>\n&#8220;The NAC-N 172 XS defines a point at which worlds collide \u2013 the traditional world of separate pre and power amplifiers, and the new world of network streaming. It&#8217;s a conventional preamplifier, perfectly at home in a Naim separates environment where, partnered by a Naim NAP 155 XS power amplifier perhaps, it can reproduce music from CD or vinyl in a way that stirs the soul and quickens the pulse. But the NAC-N 172 XS also opens the door onto the new sphere of high resolution audio, internet radio and streamed music. It&#8217;s a sphere that has just the same soul stirring potential as conventional audio sources, but that&#8217;s effectively limitless in scope and content.&#8221;<br \/>\nRetailing at \u00a31650 or \u00a31,900 with an FM\/DAB module it can handle high-resolution files right up to 24bit\/192kHz. This packs a serious punch for the money and was recently awarded the What Hi-Fi? Streamer of the Year 2012 for products between \u00a31,000 and \u00a32,000.<br \/>\nFor more information, or to book at demonstration, get in touch with Ian or John in the Glasgow store.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.naimaudio.com\/hifi-products\/nac-n-172-xs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">See the Naim website for more information &gt;&gt;<\/a><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Naim&#8217;s award winning NAC-N 172 XS Preamplifier \/ Streamer is one of our favourite products from Naim&#8217;s new streaming range.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4179","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
