"A superb-sounding, fully-featured wireless speaker that justifies its considerable expense."
‘It has more rivals to face than the Mu-so ever did - but those B&W, Devialet and B&O alternatives (to name but three) only exist because of the new ground broken by Mu-so. And Mu-so 2 seems more than capable of maintaining its predecessor’s position at the front of the pack.’
‘There’s increasing competition in the ‘premium wireless speaker’ market, but Naim Mu-so 2 just crushed it. An awesome, thumping wall of sound and reliable, versatile software platform make for the perfect 21st-century music experience.’
"Naim created a whole new market sector with the launch of its Mu-so: a high quality all-in-one streaming system. With the Mu-so 2nd Generation, it has taken that winning formula and reinvented it, packing in both extra features and more sound quality, utilising completely new drivers co-designed with Focal, making this even more of a one-box solution for room-filling music."
Naim Audio, the British hi-fi specialist with 45 years of audio expertise, has launched the 2nd Generation of its multi award-winning Mu-so wireless music system. Mu-so 2nd Generation evolves the iconic styling of its predecessor, but under its luxury aluminium casing are game-changing performance, feature and functionality upgrades. From high-resolution streaming to multi-room music to TV sound; you’ve never heard it so good from an all-in-one wireless system.
At the heart of Mu-so 2nd Generation is Naim’s music-streaming platform, developed by 25 engineers over 3 years to offer the very best performance whether playing your own digital music collection, a world of Internet radio, or music streaming services such as TIDAL and Spotify.
Continuing its high-performance credentials, Mu-so 2nd Generation’s 450 Watts of music power are joined by all-new speaker drivers – optimised in conjunction with Focal, the acoustic specialist celebrating its 40th anniversary, and Naim’s Vervent Audio associate; more than 10 times more processing power for even greater musical accuracy, and a re-engineered cabinet design to further enhance bass delivery.
Stream your music in high-resolution quality (up to 32bit/384kHz) via UPnP, or browse millions of songs through AirPlay 2 (including Apple Music), Spotify Connect, TIDAL, Chromecast built-in and Internet radio. Upgraded Wi-Fi connectivity promises a slicker streaming experience, while Ethernet remains an option if you prefer things hard-wired. You can also connect devices wirelessly via Bluetooth. Mu-so 2nd Generation’s USB input, meanwhile, supports music playback from USB drives.
Two large custom bass drivers are supported by a sophisticated porting system with an outlet at the end of the cabinet. It was carefully designed to move large volumes of air with low turbulence for richly textured, low distortion bass.
Naim have collaborated with their partner Focal to develop improved and highly optimised drive units for Mu-so 2nd Generation resulting in more controlled and refined bass, lower distortion and greater excursion capability.
Beneath its anodised aluminium skin mu-so is alive with innovation. At its heart an active arrangement of six digital amplifiers deliver a total of 450 watts of power to six custom-designed speakers.
Mu-so is supplied with a Classic Naim Black speaker grille as standard. You can add a new dimension of colour to complement your living space and style with Terracotta, Olive and Peacock grilles.
Silk dome tweeters were chosen through listening tests to replace the traditional metal cones found in many wireless speakers for their benefit to sound quality.
The whole mu-so cabinet sits on an illuminated base of high-grade acrylic which provides the foundation for the electronics and speakers to shine.
An extruded aluminium heat sink maximises thermal performance. The wooden speaker cabinet, designed for acoustic performance, is wrapped in a layer of high-grade aluminium to provide extra dampening for a distortion free sound. The volume control is constructed of a ring of solid aluminium which runs the circumference of the touch-panel control interface with its patent-pending system of illumination.
Unite all of your music in one place with the intuitive Naim control app for iOS devices and Android and put millions of songs at your fingertips. You can just scratch the surface or go deeper to explore information on artists, discographies, biographies, reviews, image galleries, similar music and more. The app even includes a simple set up wizard so you’ll be online and listening to more music than ever before in no time.
The mu-so audio brain is a 32-bit digital signal processor with software fine-tuned by our engineers in the listening room. It controls the flow of music information to each speaker and benefits from the developments Naim made in designing the best in-car audio systems for Bentley motors. Two EQ settings tailor sound for close to nd away from room boundaries for superb sound quality anywhere in your home.
