A Legend, Reborn
The original NAIT integrated amplifier was released in 1983. The new limited edition NAIT 50 pays tribute to the original icon with its ‘chrome bumper’ casework. Inside, Naim has preserved the DNA of the award-winning original, whilst updating key circuits for improved performance. After all, its performance is what made the original an absolute legend.
The Ultimate Listening Experience
Delivering 25 watts per channel into 8 ohms, the Naim NAIT 50 amplifier circuit borrows technology from Naim’s recently released NAP 250 power amplifier. The all-new discrete transistor MM phono stage brings new life to your vinyl collection. A headphone amplifier, lifted from Naim’s NSC 222 preamplifier, delivers unparalleled quality for private listening.
Built to last
Celebrating 50 years of building hi-fi by hand in Salisbury, England, Naim Audio’s legacy will be the quality of their manufacture. There are countless NAIT amplifiers still in use today and the NAIT 50 is an investment not only in a legend, but in quality.
Sound Advice
You will need banana plugs on your speaker cable to connect to the Naim NAIT 50.
Like all amplifiers, the Naim NAIT 50 will sound great right out of the box but it will sound even better after 50+ hours of use.
