Whatever the source, the new Uniti Star is revolutionary seamlessly combines digital technology with an analogue soul for a sound that’s unmistakably Naim. Play, stream, rip and store entire music collections in flawless high-resolution. Then use our custom-designed software to bring out every note of your music with true high-fidelity sound. New Uniti also gives you the option to sync up to six Uniti systems or other Naim streamers and play music from any source in multiple rooms simultaneously. Or play different music in every room.
Naim's engineers have gone to extraordinary lengths to maximise the sound quality from an all-in-one player that offers it all. From the substantial transformer, which ensures that the power supply is always smooth and stable, to the sophisticated, hand-wired analogue and digital circuitry, every element of the design in Uniti Star has been considered for its effect on sound quality. Uniti Star uses a powerful 70-watt A/B-class amplifier with technology taken from Naim's iconic NAIT integrated amplifiers to deliver the unique Naim pace, rhythm and timing.
The new Uniti Star features an incredibly powerful, phenomenally accurate fourth-generation 40-bit SHARC DSP processor. Unique Naim software minimises jitter (timing errors inherent in digital music streaming) and up-samples incoming data to ensure optimum sound quality. This all happens in the tiniest fraction of a second so the only thing you notice is the extra clarity in your music.
Uniti Star offers bit-perfect CD ripping to create files that you can either play back or serve to any UPnPTM-capable streamer on your home network and then can store them locally on a USB-connected device or SD card, either in WAV or FLAC lossless format. Uniti Star uses a unique ripping engine to ensure that the ripped data represents a faultless replica of the CD, even with badly damaged discs.
At the heart of the Uniti Star is an audiophile volume control which adjusts level in the analogue domain. Its ultra-smooth rotation and illumination is inspired by their reference amplification system, Statement. The lit volume segments are reflected in the same fashion on Uniti Star’s intuitive remote control and will adjust accordingly on the top surface ring if the volume is changed remotely. Naim have also hidden the Bluetooth antenna here for a clean look.
New Uniti all-in-one players include the very latest Wi-Fi technology. The superior Wi-Fi processor supports 2.4 and 5 GHz, alongside a much better internal buffer and memory – Uniti Star will store up to five minutes worth of data, which results in far fewer dropouts. The Wi-Fi aerials (one on either side of the product for optimum range) are integrated behind a slot machined into the heat sink, a patent-pending system that provides robust connectivity without the need for an external aerial.
A highly polished full-colour 5” LCD display provides rich images of album artwork and content. The screens have proximity sensors and will therefore wake up as someone approaches the machine to display music metadata, audio input information and more.
The Naim Uniti Star is supplied with the Naim Power-Line Lite power cable featuring a floating cable retainer and floating pins for superior electrical contact and the same decoupling techniques used in the original Power-Line cable.
