The CD5si is designed to be the best in its class, incorporating genuine technological advances to provide a thoroughly enjoyable musical experience.

Technology & Craft

TheCD5si name may only differ from its CD5i predecessor by one character, butunder the skin there's numerous fundamental improvements and advances - eachone aimed at extracting more music and enjoyment from every CD. To begin with,the CD5si digital to analogue converter chip has been upgraded to a Burr BrownPCM1793 - a device very closely related to the one used in the NDX high-endstreaming player. The CD5si also benefits from a more stable DAC clock, highervoltage power supply rails, a revised analogue filter design and a brand new CDtransport and laser optics. All these changes were driven by our relentlesssearch for engineering reliability and sound quality, and the benefit of eachchange was confirmed after many hours of listening.

However,just as change can bring improvement, there's often nothing wrong with stickingto your guns, so the CD5si retains all of its predecessor’s best features andNaim Audio trademarks. The unique Naim Audio swing-out CD drawer, lasertracking and digital error correction software, discrete analogue outputelectronics, and a die-cast, non-magnetic enclosure construction that helpsensure the electronics within can extract the most music possible fromevery CD.
