Super Natural Audio, or SNA, proudly states, “Our core mission statement is 'Music As it is Supposed to be Heard'. The brand offers bespoke boutique solutions for state-of-the-art sound in the home at realistic direct sale prices.

As well as SNA, the room at UK Audio Show will feature CML Music (Incorporating Etude Loudspeakers UK and Curvi HiFi), Clipaudio, Lucas Audio Lab and EcoWaves.

For the first time at the UK Audio Show, an entire Super Natural Audio system will be showcased comprising an SNA non-oversampling multi-bit valve DAC, with valve rectified HT supply, unique valve digital input stage, custom-designed I/V stage with transformer coupling to the output stage which has active anode loading feeding an SNA line-level preamplifier, based on triode-connected single pentode input valves and a double triode output valve which is then connected to an SNA 2.3 SE single-ended triode (SET) stereo power amplifier that utilises just two valves per channel, a triode-connected pentode output valve and shared double triode input valve. There will also be a new entry-level SET model using the same circuit but standard audio-grade components.

All the SNA electronics are point-to-point wired and handmade to order – the plinths for the range-topping models can be finished in any real wood veneer desired. Furthermore, we're told that the premium models use quality audiophile components from Charcroft, Mills, Kiwame, AudioNote, Jantzen, Elna and Nichicon.

That little lot will output through a pair of SNA-Etude High Sensitivity Bipole (EHSB) loudspeakers. These are a BMR (balanced mode radiator) array-based transmission line design in wafer cabinets, with a claimed total output sensitivity of more than 100 dB/W.

The vinyl sources will be from Clipaudio, including a new Clipaudio tonearm design on the Clipaudio Dolomite turntable. This S-shaped tonearm is a gimbal-based design with a hybrid titanium and carbon fibre composite wand. Apparently, the single-point bearings are engineered to eliminate metal-to-metal contact. Clipaudio Mute Point isolation bases will be used throughout the system.

Lucas Audio Lab will be providing their superb Lucas Domansky Music Server (LDMS - the Minimax model with the range-topping hybrid PSU), which, we are promised, will be at the front end of a state-of-the-art streaming system.

The room will be treated with EcoWaves acoustic panels – a classification A (BS EN ISO 354:2003) certified design based on environmentally friendly sound absorption technology. The acoustic absorption element comprises specially fiberised post-consumer waste cellulose textile (cotton) fibres.

Finally, we have also been tipped off that a new production model from Etude Loudspeakers will also launch at the show, which will be pushed along by Nord Acoustics' NCx500DM MkII power amplifier.

Over a year in the making, it is a result of collaboration with several UK manufacturers and one of the most eminent piano restoration companies in the UK.
