The Naim of the Game: Mu-so 2nd Generation
The Red Dot Award winning British designed audio system returns with an upgraded touch interface and 10x more processing power within.
British hi-fi specialist Naim Audio’s Mu-so wireless music system already claims a Red Dot Design Award winning design with their low and linear speaker with a curvilinear front that sits unobtrusively while also producing 450 watts of sound. Its second iteration, the aptly named Mu-so 2nd Generation, is more of the same, but better.
The Mu-so 2nd Generation arrives with the same low standing aluminum casing with a beautifully machined grill in the back and gentle wave form up front. But Naim says the exterior belies the immense changes within, noting 95% of this upgraded Mu-so has been reengineered with all-new speaker drivers and 10 times more processing power resulting in “significantly improved accuracy”. A new touch control panel ringed by an illuminated dial with a proximity sensor adds a tactile interface to the 2nd Generation, permitting access of playback controls, favorite playlists and radio stations, Spotify resume, and multi-room functionality.
The Mu-so 2nd Generation improved innards are optimized for high-resolution streaming playback (up to 32bit/384kHz), whether the source is AirPlay 2 (including Apple Music), Spotify Connect, TIDAL, Chromecast built-in, or Internet radio. Wi-Fi connectivity has also been upgraded, with the option to use an Ethernet remaining for those keeping it old school...
