Awards

What Hi-Fi? 5 stars

A global reference, What Hifi? is one of the most comprehensive magazines covering Home Cinema and Hifi. The "5 stars" award distinguishes the highest quality products, according to this British magazine.

Overview

UnitiLite offers a set of features very similar to those of the NaimUniti 2, and of course it delivers the authentic sound quality and listening satisfaction that are the hallmarks of Naim. But it also boasts a sleek, elegant exterior and extraordinary quality. UnitiLite includes a built-in CD player, an 8-input preamplifier, a 50W power amplifier, and an optional FM and DAB/DAB+ radio tuner.

What’s more, it also provides access to all the latest music media sources via network and USB connections. UnitiLite’s network connection allows you to listen to audio files stored on UPnP servers such as UnitiServe or home computers, and access thousands of Internet radio stations worldwide.

And because there’s no such thing as too much music choice, UnitiLite’s USB input lets you listen to audio files stored on USB storage devices such as an iPod, iPhone, or memory card. But features and versatility aren’t UnitiLite’s only strengths. By integrating many technologies and techniques from Naim’s high-end electronics, it overflows with undeniable sonic power and clarity.

For example, UnitiLite’s DAC board is a close relative of the device used in the high-end NDX player; similarly, the design of its power amplifier is derived from the classic techniques that are the essence of Naim sound quality, and its power supply system includes transformer windings separate from the digital, analog, and amplifier control components. It’s a genuine Naim product to its core. UnitiLite combines extraordinary versatility and high sound quality in a compact, streamlined, cost-effective format. UnitiLite is sure to fulfill many more wishes.

User reviews

Danielle

Being a die-hard fan of this brand, I am delighted to enjoy, after a good break-in period and paired with the FOCAL 926 speakers, the music from internet radio and the CD player. Installation was quite simple. Controlling it with a tablet (download the app for Android or Apple online) is a joy - so easy and convenient. I want to thank the after-sales service who, following a defect (a mounting screw was missing under the unit) and a few explanatory emails, committed to replacing it without waiting for authorization from the manufacturer. It still took two weeks but with a public holiday. The most stressful part is communicating only by email and not knowing if they are read over the weekend. Let's quickly forget this little mishap in order to fully enjoy my setup. I will continue to trust homecinésolutions in the future, and moreover, the prices are great. LOUIS Philippe

Pros: It's NAIM plus plus plus, ease of use, quality presentation.
Cons: More expensive but the price is quickly forgotten, a quality item.

Etant un inconditionel de cette marque , je me réjouis d'apprécier, après un bon rodage et ascocié aux FOCAL 926 , la musique des radio internet et du lecteur CD, installation assez simple.la commande par une tablette (télécharger l'application pour android ou apple sur internet) est un régal de simplicité et de confort. je tiens a remercier le service après vente qui suite a défaut (manquait une vis de fixation sous l'appareil) et quelques mails d'explications a pris l'engagement de remplacer sans attendre l'autorisation du constructeur. cela a quand même pris deux semaines mais avec 1jours férié. le plus stressant est de communiquer uniquement par mails et que le week end on ne peut savoir si ils sont lus. oublions vite cette petite mésaventure afin de profiter pleinement de mon installation. je ferais encore confiance a homecinésolutions dans le futur et de plus les prix sont top LOUIS Philippe

Les plus : c'est du NAIM plus plus plus, facilité d'utilisation , qualité de présentation.
Les moins : plus cher mais le prix s'oublie vite, article de qualité.
