NSS333 HIGH RESOLUTION MUSIC STREAMER
At the heart of every good hi-fi system lies a good source. The NSS333 provides a high-resolution streaming solution which does exactly that, in its support of top-rate file formats from UPnP devices and streaming services.
With NSS 333, you can find the most recent streaming platforms (Spotify connect, Apple Music, TIDAL, TIDAL Connect and Qobuz) and listen to your favourite radio stations. Thanks to the integrated AirPlay2, Chromecast, UPnP™, Roon Ready and Bluetooth® AptX technologies, streaming your content from your smartphone or tablet is easy and high quality. For total listening pleasure at home, this streamer is multi-room compatible with many connected Naim products.
Simplicity is key with the NSS333: the buttons on the front panel allow quick access to standby mode, play/pause, inputs and favourites. Enjoy the features of the bi-directional ZigBee remote, even without direct visibility of the product. The inputs are configurable and a “Standby” option, consuming 0.5 Watts, reduces the electrical energy consumption of the product.
Using the NSS333’s internal DAC enables improved performance from other audio devices within your system such as a TV/set-top box or an older CD player (subject to it having a digital output), benefitting from universal control across the Naim range; all operated from the intuitive Focal and Naim App.
