Reference all-in-one player that does it all. Very well reviewed.
As new unit with very low hours. 5-6 years it has been in storage for a 4-5 years. Maximum 100 hours of use , not really even run in. Powered some Wilson Sophia 3 speakers during those 100 hours too.
No original box but comes with remote, bluetooth aerial and main unit. I will package VERY SAFELY for transit worldwide.

High-end audio meets single case audio
There’s a convention in high-end audio that says only separates can reach genuine high-end
performance. Well not anymore. The NaimUniti showed just how much audio performance and
versatility could be housed within one stylish encasing. Now the SuperUniti takes the concept still
further to tear-up the rule book and play with the big boys.
“All-in-one” doesn’t just mean an integrated amplifier and a couple of integrated sources. SuperUniti
genuinely can do it all. Take a deep breath because listing its talents takes a while. SuperUniti is an
integrated wireless UPnP™ network stream player, USB audio player, iPod, iPhone and iPad dock,
internet radio, DAB radio, FM radio, ten input digital and analogue preamplifier, digital to analogue
converter, and stereo 80 Watt power amplifier. And just so that you don’t lose track of time while
listening - easily done - it has an alarm clock too. Out of breath?
SuperUniti might well contain all the audio versatility you’ll ever need, but audio versatility is nothing
without musical ability, and that’s where four decades of Naim audio expertise comes in. Not only does
SuperUniti do everything, it does it all with brilliant clarity and heart-stopping emotion. Every musical
source, from internet radio via analogue inputs through to digital streams, is played with genuine
musical quality. Every drop of music is squeezed from every stream of data – whatever its provenance.
The SuperUniti high-end pedigree
It isn’t just SuperUniti versatility that is, “all-in-one”. SuperUniti also pulls together a collection of high-end
core audio technologies borrowed directly from Naim high-end products. The SuperUniti power amplifier
module comes from the SUPERNAIT integrated amplifier. Its digital audio hardware is drawn from the
NDX network player; the World’s first upgradeable audiophile streaming source. Its digital to analogue
conversion technology, including the innovative data buffering jitter removal process, comes courtesy
of the Naim DAC. SuperUniti is a high-end audio technology “all-in-one”.
SuperUniti is not limited by audio file source, format or resolution. It can stream audio files, including
iTunes libraries, stored on a computer or on network storage, via UPnP™. It can play all common, and
some not so common, audio file and stream formats: WAV, FLAC, Apple Lossless, AIFF, AAC, MP3,
M4A, Windows Media-formatted files, LPCM and Ogg Vorbis. And where the file format supports high
resolution, SuperUniti can make the most of 24bit/192kHz data. SuperUniti also recognises M3U and
PLS playlists formats and supports gapless playback on all supported formats.
Crowding so much audio technology in one place brings numerous challenges of component selection,
circuit and component layout, power supply noise and microphony. Meeting such challenges however
is second nature at Naim Audio and the expertise that brings solutions has long been part of the
company’s audio engineering culture. SuperUniti is a masterpiece of audio technology packaging.
Along with drawing from the best existing Naim technologies, SuperUniti introduces a new
technology of its own. Behind the traditional looking volume knob lies an innovative new digital
control technology providing noise-free digital volume adjustment that intuitively varies its operating
characteristic depending on how quickly the volume knob is turned.
Upgrade potential has long been a central philosophy behind the Naim approach to music in the
home. Despite its integration, SuperUniti embraces that philosophy with a preamplifier output that
enables an external power amplifier, perhaps the classic NAP 250, to be used to provide even more
high-end musical performance.
Integrated with life
The SuperUniti can integrate seamlessly into your home. Its wireless and network capabilities
mean it can communicate with other UnitiSystem products, like the UnitiServe CD-ripping hard
disk music player / server or the UnitiQute compact all-in-one player, to create a multi-room home
audio system.
SuperUniti integrates with a busy life too. It can be controlled from its front panel
buttons, a conventional remote control handset, or wirelessly via the free Naim n-Stream iPad,
iPhone and iPod Touch app. And if you aren’t quite ready to let go of your CDs just yet, SuperUniti
will connect with your existing player through its system automation feature to enable integrated CD
control via n-Stream. Never has access to so much audio horsepower been so simple.
It’s all about music
Integration, versatility, technology, streaming, networking – it would be easy perhaps to lose sight of the
music. Easy, that is, until you listen. SuperUniti is Naim high-end audio that carries the power to move

### Sound Quality
Reviewers highlight its dynamic, visceral presentation with excellent rhythm, pace, and tempo (PRaT), pulling listeners into the music rather than focusing on audiophile details like ultimate separation. It delivers refined, polished sound after warm-up and break-in, with neutral tonal balance, strong vocal articulation, solid stereo imaging (though image height is merely good), and low noise floor for transparency. Power handling shines, sounding composed even at high volumes with demanding speakers like Focal Diablos, NEAT XLS, PMC, or Maggies, thanks to 80Wpc (120W at 4 ohms) and high current delivery. High-res audio (up to 24/192) is outstanding via Burr-Brown DACs and zero-jitter buffering. However, initial sound is "ugly" or "cacophonous" until warm (1+ hour) and broken in (days/weeks).
### Build Quality
Described as high-end with aluminium casework that warms during use without strain, incorporating premium elements like SuperNait power stage, Naim DAC, and UnitiQute flexibility. Features include network streaming, DAB/FM/internet tuner, multiple digital inputs, preamp/sub outs, AV bypass, and upgradable firmware via mini-USB. Users note it's a stable, all-in-one package once configured (wired Ethernet recommended over Wi-Fi).
### Reliability
Impressively stable post-setup with no glitches reported after initial buffering delays fixed by wiring; stays unflustered under load. Community views it as reliable for all-in-one use.
### Strengths
- Musical engagement: Transforms listening by emphasizing music over hi-fi trivia; works well with complex genres.
- Power and drive: Handles large rooms, loud playback, and tough speakers effortlessly.
- Versatility: Top all-in-one streamer/amplifier with flexible inputs/outputs; "best to date" with quality speakers.
- Visceral impact: Stunning dynamics and refinement draw listeners in.
### Weaknesses
- Break-in required: Sounds poor initially, needing hours/days to refine.
- Stereo imaging: Good solidity but not great height or separation.
- Amp performance: Solid but outclassed by dedicated SuperNait in community opinion.
- Not for power-hungry setups: 80W may need external amp for very large rooms or inefficient speakers like Maggies.
### Overall Reputation
Highly regarded as a game-changing all-in-one for its addictive musicality and convenience, earning loyalty and purchases from skeptical reviewers; seen as reference-level for integrated streaming amps around £3,250–£3,785, outperforming convenience systems like Sonos. Community acknowledges it's "pretty okay" but recommends separates for ultimate sound. Best with high-quality speakers in moderate-to-large rooms.
Prices vary significantly by condition: used listings dominate the market at lower values, reflecting the product's age (launched around 2013–2015), while new pricing draws from older manufacturer suggested retail (e.g., £3,250–3,785 ≈ AUD 6,500–7,600; $5,995 USD ≈ AUD 9,000 at past rates, though Australian high-end audio sites show no current new stock).
Recent used sales data (Nov–Dec 2025) supports the range:
- £1,001 (≈ AUD 2,000 at 1 GBP = 2.0 AUD) for very good condition.
- $1,223 USD (≈ AUD 1,850 at 1 USD = 1.51 AUD) for pre-owned.
Key factors affecting value:
- Condition: Very good or pre-owned units trade 60–70% below MSRP; excellent/mint could add 20–30% premium.
- Age and discontinuation: No new listings in Australian retailers like Len Wallis or Premium Sound, indicating secondary market focus.
- Location/currency: UK/EU sales cheaper post-Brexit; AUD adjustments use mid-2025 rates (1 GBP ≈ 2.0 AUD, 1 USD ≈ 1.51 AUD).
- Features and demand: 80Wpc streaming amp with high-res support appeals to audiophiles, but competition from newer Naim Uniti models (e.g., Atom at AUD 3,499 used) caps prices.
- Accessories/inclusions: Original box, remote, or upgrades (e.g., power supply) boost value by 10–15%.
