• The NAC 282 stereo preamplifier is celebrated for its exquisite sound reproduction, thanks to its sophisticated design which includes high-quality components and thoughtful engineering.
• The NAPSC acts as the power supply controller specifically tailored for the NAC 282, managing the power for digital control circuits to ensure that the audio signal remains pure and undisturbed by digital noise.

• By segregating the power supply for digital controls from the audio amplification, the NAPSC helps in achieving a cleaner, more transparent sound. This separation is key to minimizing interference and maintaining the integrity of the music signal.
• The NAC 282 benefits from this setup, allowing its audio circuits to be powered by a separate, high-current power supply, which can be further enhanced with optional external power supplies like the HiCap or SuperCap for even more refined performance.

• Together, they work to provide a listening experience where the music is presented with remarkable clarity, depth, and dynamic range. The preamp’s ability to handle a wide array of audio sources with finesse is complemented by the NAPSC’s role in ensuring that the electronics do not detract from the music’s emotional impact.
• This partnership underscores Naim’s philosophy that every link in the audio chain must be meticulously crafted to serve the art of music reproduction, resulting in a system where the technology fades into the background, leaving only the music to captivate.

In detail:

Design and Functionality: The NAC 282 is noted for its elegant styling and technical prowess, providing a harmonious balance between music and technology. It features six line-level inputs, with two being user-configurable for either DIN or RCA connectors, offering flexibility in connecting various audio components. A dedicated unity-gain input is available for use with devices like the Naim AV2 processor. The preamp includes a silent microprocessor that controls all aspects of the amplifier while sleeping during listening sessions to maintain audio purity.

Power Supply: The NAC 282 comes with the NAPSC power supply unit, which independently powers the digital and control circuits. This setup allows the audio circuits to be fed either from a NAP 155 XS or NAP 200 power amplifier or from standalone power supplies like the FlatCap XS, HiCap, or SuperCap, enhancing transparency and musicality
