Clean power is important if you're chasing high end sound (and if you're here then of course you are!). Power filters give the incoming mains signal a thorough scrub before feeding it into your system. The Dectet filters your AC supply, then routes it out to ten points, separated into 3 different zones. There is a high current zone for your power amps and subs, then two separate 'isozones' to keep your analog and digital signals separate. Basically, stick all those switch mode supplies on one zone so they don't contaminate the other.

They call it the inky blackness hidden in the music ...

The P20 is the ultimate cleanser for your mains power.

Demanding systems require remarkable power. The DirectStream P20 Power Plant is the finest expression of the art of delivering protected, pure, regulated, distortion-free AC power.

With peak power levels of 3600 watts, no equipment can tax the mighty P20. Finally, your most coveted components have the opportunity to unleash their full potential, no longer hindered by dynamic drops in AC caused by the unavoidable resistance of the miles of wiring between you and the power station.

DirectStream P20 regulates both long-term fluctuations and peak dynamic without deviation, ensuring a solid foundation from which to build a state-of-the-art system. Its low output impedance and unhindered AC delivery are equivalent to less than 50 feet of 12 gauge wire connected directly to your city power source without the connecting miles of wire, the many transformers, and the multiple neighbors weakening and contaminating your power.

The most demanding music systems require nothing less than the P20.

I have a confession to make to the HiFi world, I don't like Subwoofers! Well I don't like most Subwoofers. That sound of boomy over exaggerated bass masks all the good HiFi stuff like articulation detail, 3-dimensionality, big wide soundstage. Doing Subwoofers badly will turn your system into a flobby doof doof sound instead of adding bass in a cohesive way that'll fill out the mid range as well as the bass. Don't get me wrong, there are people who love that sort of sound (people who work at Carlton Audio Visual included!) and for them, we have other Subwoofers. For those, however, who are critical music listeners, who prefer detail and accuracy, consistency and finese, there's REL Subwoofers.

The Rel T9/X is the biggest version of the new X series Subwoofers from REL. One 10" active and one 10" passive driver. Faster and more transparent, the T9X builds on the hugely successful T9i. 

In store ready for demo.

3T The Cliff was developed with a quad centre construction without a screen layer. This enabled the reduction of capacitance
and produced one of the most flexible interconnects available. Each one of the four conductors is made of a single 400 micron 3T
conductor combined with eleven 150 micron 3T conductors. This interconnect delivers exceptional sonic results in both space
and resolution. It has particularly clear reproduction of even the most complex musical performance, even at high volume levels.

Please call us to make sure we have the length and termination you require in stock.

This is a unit that is ultimately a high-end Hi-Fi component but it's ease of use and multitude of functions put it into the upmarket lifestyle realm as well. 'Lifestyle' for me has become a bit of a cringeworthy term that has too often become associated with some compromise in audio quality for the sake of a better end user experience. To be honest though, we should be aiming for both and they are not mutually exclusive!

Naim embody that ease of use combined with incredible sound. Their streaming app works every time, they have on board DACs to simplify connections and the units are sleek, beautifully finished yet understated and classy. 

And this combination takes things to the next level. Where the Uniti Nova lets you down on separation and power to drive a difficult set of speakers, this combination proffers that in spades. 

We tried a couple of different sets of speakers with these three units and like them most with the Sonus Faber Guarneri Homage...but come in and try some combinations for yourself.

Naim products bought from us, a genuine approved Naim dealer, include the full 2 year warranty.
