Naim Nait XS3
Naim’s original Nait XS was introduced in 2008. It was designed as a step up from the basic Nait integrated amp and offered improved sound and greater grunt from a similarly slimline package.
A decade on, it has been revised for a second time by Naim’s engineers, and the result is the XS3 we have on test here. Looks familiar doesn’t it? That revision turns out to be light, with the previously line-level amplifier gaining a moving-magnet phono stage and undergoing a tweak in the power-amp circuitry to improve its responsiveness.
It’s somewhat of a surprise
