Discrete Regulator in Naim voedingen (DR)

Nieuwe Naim voeding met Discrete Regulator en upgrade mogelijkheid voor de bestaande power supplies.

Na een researchperiode van ongeveer 2 jaar komt Naim met een upgrade voor haar voedingen. Naim noemt het Discrete Regulator (DR) en dit zorgt voor een significante verbetering in de klankprestaties. De Discrete Regulator wordt toegepast in de HiCap, XPS, SuperCap, 552 PS and 555 PS power supplies (voedingen).
Voor al deze bestaande voedingen komt er een upgrade mogelijkheid. Zodra hiervan de prijs bekend is zullen we u hierover informeren op deze pagina.

Building on Naim’s upgrade path philosophy
The addition of outboard power supplies offers an established upgrade path for many Naim products. By improving the supplies themselves, removing the electromagnetic field of the transformer and interference generated by the rectifier diodes, and by eliminating transformer vibration from the product case, Naim power supplies offer improved sound quality.

The role of the regulator
Voltage regulators are widely deployed within Naim power supplies to ensure that audio and digital circuits operate with a stable, low noise supply voltage, thereby maximising their performance. Naim’s new discrete regulator betters industry standard monolithic voltage regulators and, even more importantly, has had its design and component selection refined in the listening room to deliver maximised sound quality from Naim’s audio circuits.

A pure development project
As well as incorporating the newly developed DR in these five power supplies, Naim has reviewed and optimised every aspect of their design. Transformer mounting, wire gauge, wire routing, mechanical decoupling, internal layout and reservoir capacitors have all been scrutinised to ensure that the DR’s benefits are fully realised. The result of the inclusion of the new DR regulators and the updates to design is a quite significant increase in performance which helps the listener to really connect with the artist and music.

Updating your product
Existing units can be updated but very few technicians outside of Naim’s Salisbury facility will be able to undertake this. Naim is offering a special reduced price to customers for updates to the new specification for power supplies that were shipped from Naim after 1st February (outside UK) and 1st March (in the UK). These units will be prioritised for updates in the first instance, however from October / November 2012 all existing units will be able to be updated. For more information on pricing and how to get your unit updated please contact your Naim retailer.
