Naxo variants

Posted by: arb76 on 28 February 2018

I'm after a bit of history.

I see a lot of naxos that are only powered by a single 24v supply, both 2-4s and 3-6s, however, mine (2-4) has a dual 24v supply, one for each channel.

Is this an in betweener before the snaxo?

Does the snaxo have a supply for each frequency range as well as channel?

Ali, if you're talking the very early NAXO, including the original bolt down shoe-box type, then yes, it would have been powered from a single supply from a suitable NAPS or SNAPS (Or HICAP from the single rail output). With the arrival of the HICAP, the NAXO was revised to take advantage of the HICAP's dual rail 24V output.

Off the top of my head I can't recall how the supplies are configured inside the early NAXO but a mail to Naim might get some more info on that if you're interested.
