For a limited time, UK buyers have the chance to save up to almost £800 when they buy the NaimUniti 2 network music system with a pair of Focal's new Aria 900 speakers, thanks to a joint promotion from the two companies.

French speaker company Focal and Salisbury-based Naim merged just over two years ago under the Focal & Co banner, but this is the first joint promotion offered by the two. It combines the latest version of Naim's original all-in-one network music system with the latest speakers from Focal, and comprises two system packages.

Choose the NaimUniti 2 with the Focal Aria 906 standmount speakers, and the price is £2995, representing a saving of £698, while the NaimUniti 2 with the Focal Aria 926 floorstanding speakers, to be reviewed in a future issue of Gramophone, is £3995, saving £798.

The NaimUniti 2 combines a CD player, amplifier, DAB/FM/internet radio tuner and high resolution digital stream player, able to play music from network streams, iOS smartphones, players and tablets, and USB storage devices.

It has a total of five analogue and five digital inputs, 70Wpc amplification, both wired and wireless network connectivity and the ability to be controlled by the remote handset supplied, or Naim's free iOS app, n-Stream.

The Focal Aria 926 speakers use the company's new Flax drivers, designed to give much of the performance of Focal's glass-sandwich 'W' drive units at a more affordable price. Like all of Focal's hi-fi speakers, and the majority of its products, the Aria 900 models are handmade in the company's own factory in Saint-Etienne, France

Correction
Due to a little 'lost in translation', we published incorrect prices for the new Focal speakers in the Awards issue of Gramophone. The Aria 906 is £758 per pair in walnut, or £898/pr in Black High Gloss, the 926 £1798 or £1998 per pair depending on finish, the 936 £2198/£2498, and the Aria 948 £2798/£3098. Apologies for any confusion.

The speakers provided in the Naim/Focal package deals above are in the premium Black High Gloss finish.
