Naim Audio Uniti Star All-In-One Music Streamer

One Box, and the Discs Go In the Front

The Uniti Star is a complete system in a single chassis. Seventy watts a channel into 8 ohms, a streamer, a converter and a CD slot, so a pair of speakers is genuinely all you need to add.

That CD slot does more than play. It rips discs to WAV or FLAC, onto a USB drive or SSD of up to a terabyte. That is enough for around twenty thousand tracks kept losslessly.

So a shelf of discs becomes a library on the same machine that plays it, and the collection stops being something you get up to change. The player handles both from one interface.

More Inputs Than Most Amplifiers

Two optical inputs take up to 24-bit and 96kHz. Two coaxial RCA inputs reach 24-bit and 192kHz, and handle DSD over DoP. There is a BNC digital input to 192kHz as well, which is rare on anything at this level.

An HDMI ARC input brings your television in over a single cable, letting the set's remote control the volume. An analog RCA input covers a turntable stage or anything else that is not digital.

Streaming is built in alongside all of that, so services, internet radio and your own network library all arrive without another box on the shelf. Naim's own app does the driving.

Who Is This Best For?

• You want to stop owning boxes — amplification, streaming, conversion and a CD drive are all inside, so a pair of speakers completes the system and the rack disappears.
• Your CDs deserve to be archived — ripping to WAV or FLAC onto a terabyte drive holds around twenty thousand tracks losslessly, on the machine that already plays them.
• Everything you own is digital — two optical, two coaxial and a BNC input mean a disc player, a console, a set-top box and a computer can all stay connected at once.
• Your television is part of the system — HDMI ARC brings the set in on one cable and lets its remote control the volume, which optical alone cannot do.
• You want 70 watts to work with — that is real power for a one-box system, enough to drive floorstanders rather than only small speakers. See our floorstanding speakers.

How Does It Connect to Your System?

Wire a pair of speakers to the terminals and the system is working. Discs go in the front slot, and the network arrives over Wi-Fi or Ethernet for streaming and your own library.

A television connects on HDMI ARC, other digital sources on optical, coaxial or BNC, and anything analog on the RCA input. A USB drive or SSD holds whatever you rip.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much power does it make?

Seventy watts per channel into 8 ohms, which is enough to drive floorstanding speakers rather than only compact ones.

Can it rip my CDs?

Yes. It rips to WAV or FLAC onto a USB drive or SSD of up to a terabyte, holding roughly twenty thousand tracks losslessly.

Which digital inputs does it have?

Two optical to 24-bit/96kHz, two coaxial RCA to 24-bit/192kHz with DoP, a BNC input to 192kHz, and HDMI ARC.

Will it improve my television sound?

HDMI ARC brings the set's audio in on one cable and lets the television remote control the volume, so it becomes part of the hi-fi.

Can I connect a turntable?

Through the analog RCA input, using a phono stage between the turntable and the Uniti Star to bring the signal up to line level.

What is the warranty?

Two years on parts and labor from the date of purchase, with a valid receipt from an authorized retailer.
