“It is practically impossible to find fault with Naim’s new Uniti Star.”
Versatile
In one component you get a complete audiophile system. Play your CDs or stream from TIDAL, Spotify, Roon, Chromecast, AirPlay, UPnP, internet radio, or Bluetooth. Connect your turntable to the analog input. Improve your TV sound using the HDMI connection. No matter what you listen to, the Naim Uniti Star will transform it.
Simple
What makes Naim’s Uniti range so popular is how easy it is to use. There is a dedicated app for iOS and Android devices. The included remote control gives you quick acess to the most commonly used features. A large colour display on the front panel displays gorgeous cover art as well as a readout of the volume level.
Built to last
Handcrafted in the south of England, the Naim Uniti Star casing is hewn from brushed and anodised aluminium. The enclosure acts as a heatsink, keeping the electronics within cool to ensure a long life of music making. Each component inside was chosen not only for its audio performance but for longevity as well. This is an investment in quality.
The Creative Audio Review
Demo track: ‘Birds’ by Dominique Fils-Aimé. As we listen to this stunning recording, we have to keep reminding ourselves that we are listening to an all-in-one system. Normally the term implies compromise and yet its difficult to discern just what that compromise might be. The Naim Uniti Star plays music with tremendous confidence. Everything sounds just right. Most importantly, and like every other Naim component ever made, the Uniti Star is musical and oh so fun to listen to. Five stars for this Star, for sure!
Creative Audio Pro Tips
You will need banana plugs on your speaker wire to connect to the Naim Uniti Star.
The Naim Uniti Star does have WiFi built-in, however we always recommend a wired Ethernet connection if possible.
Like all amplifiers, the Naim Uniti Star will sound great right out of the box but it will sound even better after 50+ hours of use.
