A high-resolution streamer that makes music lovers' hearts beat faster
A hi-fi system is only as good as its sound source. The high-resolution streamer NSS 333 is compatible with the file formats of the best streaming devices and services.
The integrated DAC enhances the performance of other devices in your system. The NSS 333 is compatible with the entire Naim product range and allows for easy control of your system via the Focal & Naim app.
With the NSS 333, you can access the latest streaming platforms (Spotify connect, Apple Music, TIDAL, TIDAL Connect and Qobuz) and listen to your favorite radio stations. Thanks to the integrated technologies AirPlay2, Chromecast, UPnP™, Roon Ready, and Bluetooth® AptX, streaming your content from your smartphone or tablet is effortless and in high quality. For the ultimate home listening experience, this streamer is multiroom-compatible with many networked Naim products.
Perfect Control
With the intuitive Focal & Naim app, you can easily control your NSS 333. For example, you can access all your music, including your favorite radio stations, playlists, and streaming services, or discover artist biographies and discographies. You can also update your system wirelessly. The app also allows you to control both Naim's servers and streaming products, so you only need one application.
Naim's Expertise
Under the direction of the Technical Director, Naim's engineers have developed special electronic circuits to enhance the performance of the New Classic products. For this, the best components were selected, such as the NP800 Streaming Card, an exclusive DSP with integrated filter for high-precision results, or a high-end DAC, which stands out for its audiophile management of the audio signal.
A Timeless Design
Naim products are both contemporary and timeless. In their creations, Naim eschews unnecessary frills that would detract from performance and sound quality. The high-precision construction of the NSS 333 is characterized by a clear design, noble materials, a color display, and adjustable logo brightness.
Integration into Complete Systems
The NSS 333 can be connected to New Classic products, as well as earlier versions of the Classic Series, via a new range of dedicated cables.
Ease of Use
Simplicity is key. The front panel buttons provide quick access to standby mode, play/pause, inputs, and favorites. A bidirectional ZigBee remote control can be used for remote control – even without a direct line of sight to the product. The inputs are configurable, and a standby option with 0.5 watts consumption ensures reduced power consumption of the product.
Aluminum and Naim
Naim's founder, Julian Vereker, immediately recognized the many advantages that aluminum offered for enclosing Naim's electronic components. He knew that delicate audio components are very susceptible to the effects of magnetic fields, thermal instability, and unwanted vibrations.
The New Classic range follows this highly technical and sustainable approach with aluminum enclosures, surpassed only by the flagship product "Statement". Naim chose a high-quality aluminum that optimally combines thermal and microphonic properties. The fronts are clad with solid 20mm aluminum blocks; heat sinks are attached to the sides. 5mm plates seal the product at the top and bottom. For an unchanging beauty throughout the product's lifespan, the aluminum is brushed, micro-sandblasted, and anodized. A single glance and a single touch are enough to fall in love with the New Classic range, long before the first note of music is played.
