At the heart of Mu-so 2nd Generation is Naim's music-streaming platform, developed by 25 engineers over three 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.

The multicore digital signal processor (DSP) drives higher performance, providing 2000 MIPS (million instructions per second) compared to the original Mu-so's single-core, 150 MIPS DSP. This helps you hear more from your music.

Naim Audio has also created a limiter algorithm that keeps each driver's movement under control when at high volume levels. The new limiter, by design, is only active at extreme volume levels and helps to retain the music's clarity and increase long-term reliability.

Play hundreds of supported apps including Deezer, Qobuz, Plex, TuneIn, SoundCloud, and Pandora from your smartphone or tablet, all streamed directly to your Mu-so via Chromecast built-in. Add the Mu-so 2nd Generation to the Google Home app to control it alongside your other Chromecast and smart home devices.

Intelligently boost bass and treble for a complete musical experience, whatever volume you choose.

The Mu-so features a premium aluminum casing in a burnished gray finish. It may look similar on the outside, but inside, the majority of components have been upgraded to improve performance. The cabinet design has been re-engineered to create 13% more internal volume, enabling bigger, better bass. Both the cabinet bracing and baffle molding have been redesigned for improved rigidity, which suppresses and controls vibrations. The distinctive heat sink fins are now more compact, while still being ultra-effective, and continuing to feature Naim technology that discreetly incorporates the Wi-Fi antenna.

The standard black grille can be easily swapped for one of three new color options – olive, terracotta, and peacock – to best suit your taste and décor.
