Naim for Bentley Batur by Mulliner
Naim for Mulliner: bespoke hi-fi system created for the exceptional Bentley Batur by Mulliner.
Continuing a partnership spanning over fifteen years, Naim has created an exclusive Hi-Fi system for the Bentley Batur by Mulliner, the latest Mulliner model from the famous car manufacturer.
This is stated to be the fastest and most powerful Bentley has ever created, and they weren't going to skimp on the sound system. Backed up by Focal's unique sound expertise, Naim has poured its fifty years of audio innovation into creating a unique system: Naim for Mulliner.
This Bentley superpowered coupe features a 740-horsepower, twin-turbo W12 engine and has exclusivity built-in with only 18 cars made. Beyond its revolutionary technology, the Batur reflects the visions of both English brands: the road ahead for Bentley's future automotive models in terms of design and Naim's vision for on-board listening.
NAIM FOR MULLINER
Naim's bespoke system for Mulliner was completed with help from VerVent Audio Group sister brand Focal and made in France at Focal's workshops. The speaker drivers benefit from the audio brand's renowned expertise and boast the sound signature produced by Utopia. According to Naim, its Mulliner system results from "10,000 hours of innovation developments inherited from both brands".
We're told that engineers from both British brands worked together to define the best integration for the "M" profile speaker drivers with each speaker driver position being carefully chosen. Naim says that the result is that each driver delivers optimum performance, creating an uncompromising musical experience for all passengers.
The exclusive single-piece 'M'-profile aluminium/magnesium cone driver (no dust cap) promises rigidity, lightness and damping. Resulting in an extremely linear frequency response, a low distortion rate and better sound dispersion, says the brand. Meanwhile, the TAM tweeter was chosen for its "silky treble", as well as its wide-angle diffusion benefitting 'off-axis' listening common in-car environments.
Naim for Mulliner: £25,000 hi-fi option developed exclusively for coachbuilt Batur by Mulliner, limited to just 18 cars.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
