Naim Mu-so 2nd Generation Wireless Music System — Burnished Grey

The Naim Mu-so 2nd Generation is a mains-powered all-in-one music system with six built-in loudspeaker drivers and dedicated amplification. Naim specifies six 75-watt amplifier channels, totalling 450 watts; that is an amplifier specification rather than a sound-pressure or battery-power rating. Its network platform supports compatible streaming sources including AirPlay 2, Google Chromecast, Spotify Connect and TIDAL Connect, with playback controlled through the Naim app or the supplied remote. Wi-Fi and wired Ethernet provide network access, while Bluetooth offers another way to play music from a compatible device. An HDMI ARC connection with CEC can receive audio from a suitable television; it is not labelled HDMI eARC. Optical digital, analogue and USB connections provide additional source options. The burnished-grey enclosure contains the speakers, so a separate stereo amplifier is not required. This is the full-size Mu-so 2nd Generation, not the smaller Mu-so Qb. It requires mains power and is not a rechargeable portable speaker.
