The result is a two-box CD source with the drive, timing and musical engagement Naim is famous for – plus a DAC that will also serve your other digital sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CDX2 is built around Naim's suspended transport with a low-mass magnetic clamping \"puck\" to resist resonance, housed in a cast and extruded anti-magnetic chassis on resonance-controlled feet. Its fully double-regulated power supply features 20 low-noise regulated supplies on the main board alone, and the player can be upgraded later with an external XPS or 555 PS power supply. It also decodes HDCD discs and can be used as a standalone CD player via its DIN or RCA analogue outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Naim DAC brings the company's CD-player know-how to a standalone converter. Filtering and 16x oversampling are handled by a powerful SHARC DSP running Naim-authored code as a 40-bit floating-point filter, feeding Burr-Brown PCM1704K converters and a fully discrete analogue output stage. Naim's \"zero S\/PDIF jitter\" design buffers incoming data and reclocks it from precision local clocks. Connectivity is generous, with eight S\/PDIF inputs (2 BNC, 2 RCA and 4 optical) and two USB inputs (front and rear) for memory sticks and iPods, with DIN and RCA outputs. It can be controlled from a Naim preamp remote and upgraded with an external XPS or 555 PS power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat Hi-Fi?\u003c\/em\u003e named the Naim DAC its Best Premium DAC at the 2010 Awards, praising its robust, dynamically exciting sound, flexibility and upgrade potential, and placing its performance at the cutting edge for the price (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.whathifi.com\/naim\/dac\/review\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWhat Hi-Fi? – Naim DAC review\u003c\/a\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eStuff\u003c\/em\u003e awarded the CDX2 five stars, saying few players at its price make as much sense as an ownership proposition and urging anyone shopping in this bracket to hear it first (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/stuff.tv\/?p=216489\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eStuff – Naim CDX2 review\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eFree delivery to UK mainland.\n\u003cp\u003eIf you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out to us!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: International shipping is available for this item.
