The Naim Audio NAP 300 DR is a high-current, two-box stereo power amplifier. Its separate 300 PS power supply helps isolate the amplification circuitry from power-supply noise and electromagnetic interference. The amplifier uses Naim’s DR (Discrete Regulator) technology and NA009 output transistors developed from the work undertaken for the Statement amplifier. It is designed for demanding loudspeaker loads and is specified to deliver 90 W per channel into 8 ohms, with stable prolonged operation down to 2 ohms. Inputs are balanced XLR, while loudspeaker connection is via 4 mm banana sockets. The 300 PS and Burndy connection cables are supplied as part of the system. Naim’s official product page and current product-history information indicate that the NAP 300 DR remains a listed product; therefore it should not be classified as no longer manufactured.
