Full Description
View Full Description70W Class AB Amplification
Uniti Star Lite features a high-performance Class AB amplifier delivering 70W into 8 ohms, giving it the power to drive a wide range of passive speakers without requiring a separate power amplifier. This keeps your system simpler while still providing the output needed for confident everyday listening. An RCA sub/pre output also makes it easy to add a subwoofer or connect external amplification when required. A 3.5mm headphone socket provides a convenient option for private listening without changing your main speaker setup.
Streaming And Digital Source Support
Naim’s NP800 streaming card gives Uniti Star Lite access to a broad selection of music services and network playback options. It supports internet radio, Spotify Connect, TIDAL and TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, AirPlay 2, Chromecast Built-In, UPnP, USB storage, and Roon Ready playback. High-resolution file support includes WAV up to 32-bit/384kHz, with FLAC, AIFF, and ALAC up to 24-bit/384kHz. DSD 64 and 128Fs compatibility also gives you more flexibility when playing high-resolution music libraries.
Connections, Control, And Multiroom
HDMI ARC lets you route TV sound through Uniti Star Lite, while two optical inputs, two coaxial RCA inputs, BNC, USB, SD card, RCA, and 5-pin DIN connections accommodate a wide range of digital and analogue sources. The Focal & Naim app provides straightforward access to streaming, software updates, and multiroom control across compatible systems. A ZigBee RF remote works without requiring direct line of sight, while its display reflects volume adjustments, making everyday control easier from different positions around the room.
Low-Noise Internal Architecture
Uniti Star Lite uses Naim’s NP800 streaming card with LVDS balanced digital signalling, helping reduce electrical noise within the unit so music can retain greater clarity and detail. Galvanic isolation separates the control and audio circuits, further limiting unwanted interference between key components. Its dual power supply design also gives different tasks the power they need, combining a linear supply focused on audio performance with an efficient standby supply. This approach supports cleaner playback during listening while helping reduce unnecessary power consumption when the system is idle.
Hi-Res Library And Gapless Playback
Uniti Star Lite supports a wide range of high-resolution audio formats, making it well suited to detailed digital music libraries. WAV files can play at up to 32-bit/384kHz, while FLAC, AIFF, and ALAC are supported at up to 24-bit/384kHz, alongside DSD 64 and 128Fs. Gapless playback is available across all supported formats, allowing tracks to flow together without unwanted pauses. This is particularly useful for live albums, DJ mixes, concept records, and classical works where uninterrupted transitions form an important part of the listening experience.
Practical Everyday Control
A 5-inch colour display provides clear system information from the front of Uniti Star Lite, making it easier to check playback and settings at a glance. Physical buttons give you direct access to standby, play and pause, inputs, and favourites without always reaching for another device. The bi-directional ZigBee remote also works without requiring direct line of sight, giving you more freedom around the room. Volume adjustments are reflected on the handset itself, so you can confirm changes easily even when seated away from the main unit.
