Naim

Naim founder, Julian Vereker MBE (1945-2000), was a successful racing car driver, self-taught engineer and entrepreneur with a deep passion for music. Spending his spare time listening to the greatest artists of the 1960's and 70’s, as well as his own friends playing live, Julian found the performance of playback at home fell woefully short in almost every area that mattered.  Not content with second best, he set about designing his own amplifiers and loudspeakers, completely unaware that he was laying the foundations for a range of iconic and award-winning hi-fi products that would reach well into the next century. Julian had no ideas of fame or fortune, he simply wanted to experience music replayed in the truest and purest possible form. These were our founding values in 1973 and they continue to fuel every aspect of our progress today. The technology we use to achieve our aims will always change and evolve with time, but our ultimate goal remains the same – to bring our listeners a deeper and more intense experience of music.
