The FlatCap XS is a dual rail power supply that, either alone or in pairs, provides the most effective means of extracting maximum performance from an XS system. One FlatCap XS can be used to improve the performance of a Naim CD5 XS and Naim NAT05 XS, while a second can be implemented to increase the performance of the Naim NAC 152 XS Audio Preamplifier. The vital role that the power supply plays in any hi-fi system has been a longstanding Naim belief, and it has no better demonstration than the increase in musical fluidity that the FlatCap XS brings to a system.
The FlatCap XS is an external audio power supply that replaces the FlatCap2x. The improvements in sound quality are subtle but significant: dynamics are more consistent across the audio band, bass lines are more easily differentiated, and system background noise is reduced. Performance improvements are even more obvious when powering a preamp and CD player at the same time. It can be used with the Naim NAC 202 and Naim NAC 282 preamplifiers, and our SNAXO electronic crossovers to provide a low cost and effective input into active system operation. It can also be used to power all Naim phono stage preamplifiers, active crossovers and preamplifiers except the Naim NAC 552 and Naim NAC 252.
The FlatCap XS can provide exceptionally low noise dual power supplies for two separate 5 Series components; a Naim NAC 152 XS and a Naim CD5 XS, or Naim NAC 152 XS and Naim StageLine, for example.
For example, an XS series owner could add an XS FlatCap to improve the performance of a CD5 XS and NAC 152 XS, and thus enjoy all the improvements in clarity, dynamics, and timing that they would expect from any power source upgrade. Naim Audio feed. It's a logical, high-value and highly effective upgrade path, just as you'd expect from Naim Audio.
Characteristics:
Dual rail power supply with four 24V power outputs
Four low noise regulators
Black anodized chassis with brushed front panel plus anti-vibration feet
technology and crafts
The FlatCap XS transformer has two separate secondary windings to isolate each of the dual supplies from the other. It includes four low-noise faders selected and tested by Naim Audio for their exceptional performance.
