Naim DAC-V1 - Time for a new case design?

Posted by: David_Olstein on 09 May 2017

Anyone think that the Naim DAC V1 will get a new Uniti-style case design in the near future? Or perhaps we'll get a new Uniti DAC/Headphone amp with built in streaming capabilities. Something like the Atom, only with a full-sized headphone jack and minus the built-in amp. It would be nice to have a new DAC/Headphone amp to pair with the Uniti Core.

Probably not until after NDAC 2.0

the new range will produce more sales than a revamped unit. It does seem the solo dacs are becoming redundant to be replaced with streaming dacs

I expect NAIM will keep a USB DAC/Headphone amp in production, possibly add HDMI in a future iteration? Personally, it will be sad to see the legendary Naim shoebox form phased out!

As I understand it, Naim have no plans to change the classic casework. The Uniti range is separate.
