Now we are making the amazing new Eigentakt (self-clocking) technology, recently introduced to the world in the EISA Award winning Masters M33, available to a wider audience with the very affordable C 298. We are thrilled to provide this unprecedented level of performance. In short, a perfect companion for the C 658 BluOS Streaming DAC pre-amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAmazing Flexibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 298 may be a basic Power Amp, but we have carefully thought through all the use cases typically encountered to create a rich feature content. Selectable balanced inputs make the C 298 a natural for studio use or connection to High End Preamps and Processors. These inputs include a trim control useful for matching to other components. A line out allows further addition of power on the same channel for additional speakers or subwoofers. Auto-sense with selectable threshold is perfect for automating complex systems or hiding the amp out of sight in a cabinet. We even include a Ground Lug that can be very useful for eliminating ground loops and noise in complex multi-unit systems. Added to all this connectivity is a Bridge Switch that turns the C 298 into an amazingly powerful Monobloc Amplifier. Start with one and add a second C 298 later when you upgrade your speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGetting the Basics Right\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is surprising how many seemingly advanced products in the market today often miss many of the most basic requirements for satisfying performance. Low noise circuits, accurate channel balance, proper input and output impedance characteristics, high overload margins and stability with difficult speaker loads. NAD starts by getting these things precisely right and advances from there. Our line inputs, both Balanced and Single-ended, can accommodate all kinds of analog source components by offering ideal input impedance characteristics with linear ultra-low-noise buffer amplifiers to prevent any sonic degradation caused by inappropriate loading of the source device. These are all details you can hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSophisticated Power\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNAD has moved away from the old fashioned and very power hungry linear power supplies and Class AB output stages that waste nearly half of the energy consumed producing heat rather than sound. Instead we have developed even better performing circuits based on switch mode power supplies and Class D output stages. Once thought to be inferior to traditional topologies, NAD's advanced work in this area has created some of the best performing amplifiers regardless of basic design principle. These new designs are very linear over a wide bandwidth and provide consistent performance into all speaker loads, providing a dramatic advance over previous models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe generously dimensioned power supply easily allows for 185 watts continuous and over 570 watts instantaneous power for short term musical transients. Innovative Asymmetrical Power-Drive fully utilizes every last watt available with its vast reserves of dynamic power available to accurately reproduce musical transients without distortion or compression. It can operate with any AC mains voltage from 100v to 240v and provides pure DC power to all the various stages of the C 298. This highly efficient supply also provides near perfect regulation of voltage across a wide range of conditions and provides a solid noise-free foundation for the amplifying stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePurifi 'Eigentakt' Amplifier Technology\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePurifi is a Danish technology company that has brought together several of the industry's leading engineers to apply advanced mathematical modelling to solve the last remaining limitations of audio amplifiers. While there are many good sounding amplifiers on the market today, Purifi has taken a fresh look at every aspect of amplifier performance and found many seemingly small non-linearities that can make a dramatic difference in the overall sound.

{"id":7705893470451,"title":"NAD C 316 V2 Stereo Integrated Amplifier","handle":"nad-c-316-v2","description":"\u003ch1\u003eImproving the Budget Reference Amplifier\u003c\/h1\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNAD has a distinct reputation for creating some of the best performing budget amplifiers of all time.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lineage is impressive, all the way from the 3020 of 1978 to the current C 328, with many \"Best Amp\" awards and five-star reviews along the way. The C 316BEE lived up to expectations, garnering multiple accolades including an EISA award for 'Best Product 2008-2009' and top recommendations from the world's leading audio publications. With the resurgence of vinyl we decided to update the design by including NAD's highly acclaimed RIAA phono stage. This sophisticated circuit combines low noise with high overload margins to eliminate noise and distortion. RIAA equalisation is extremely accurate (a rarity at this price) and there is even an infrasonic filter to reject airborne vibrations that can cause parasitic feedback.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProven Technology Enhanced by Innovation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNAD's PowerDrive Circuit has been proven to offer a remarkable combination of high current drive needed for complex loudspeaker loads, and high levels of undistorted dynamic power. By monitoring the precise operating condition of the power amplifier, PowerDrive uses this intelligence to automatically optimise the power supply settings for uniformly low distortion and maximum power in the real world of music listening. As featured in our top Masters Series models, PowerDrive uses a complex 'analogue computer' to determine the optimal settings. For the C 316BEE V2, NAD's Director of Advanced Development, Bjorn Erik Edvardsen, developed a clever new computation circuit requiring fewer parts at a much lower cost without any reduction in effectiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll the hallmarks of NAD technology are present, from the generously sized toroidal power transformer and low ESR smoothing capacitors, to the multiple regulated secondary supplies, to the heavy duty discrete output transistors, the C 316BEE V2 is every bit as refined and sophisticated as other NAD amplifiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eValue\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe are confident that the C 316BEE V2 will set new benchmarks for performance, both measured and audible, at this affordable price point. Unless you have power hungry speakers, listen at dangerously loud levels, or have a very large room, the C 316BEE V2 will be the amplifier for you. Fundamental specifications for noise, distortion, power, stereo separation, and volume control tracking, are all class leading and would be impressive on an amplifier costing many times its modest price.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSimplicity\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile the C 316BEE V2 has everything necessary for musical enjoyment, it is refreshingly limited to the essentials: six inputs, one set of speakers, a headphone jack, and full function remote control. It has a compact size and a handsome yet understated exterior. It is essential NAD.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile its bells and whistles may not be as extensive as our more expensive offerings, the C 316V2 is far from a \"stripped down\" product. With five line level inputs, an MM Phono Input, full IR remote control, defeatable tone controls and a front panel input for a phone or tablet, the C 316V2 is fully equipped to be the control centre for a high performance music system. Continuous power is a conservative 40 watts, and dynamic power (more important for music listening) is impressively more than 100 watts! This is far more usable power on tap than other amplifiers at this price, and this power is available across the entire audible band at a class leading 0.03%.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sonic result of this high technology is a relaxed and inviting sound that digs out the subtle details in your favourite recordings and presents them across a panoramic stereo sound stage. The impressive dynamic power reserves make the C 316BEE V2 sound both articulate and alive. The silent background and low distortion gives a sense of solidity and presence to your music and brings out the best your loudspeakers have to offer\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowerDrive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 Line Level Inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMM Phono Input for Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront Panel Input for Portable Media Players\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBass and Treble Controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTone Defeat (Bypass)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadphone Output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIR Remote Control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-way Speaker Binding Posts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGold Plated RCA Jacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToroidal Power Transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u0026lt;0.5W Standby consumption\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c!-- split --\u003e\u003ch5\u003eLine In \/ Headphone Out53\u0026gt;\u003ch4\u003eTHD (20 Hz -

The C 316BEE lived up to expectations, garnering multiple accolades including an EISA award for 'Best Product 2008-2009' and top recommendations from the world's leading audio publications. With the resurgence of vinyl we decided to update the design by including NAD's highly acclaimed RIAA phono stage. This sophisticated circuit combines low noise with high overload margins to eliminate noise and distortion. RIAA equalisation is extremely accurate (a rarity at this price) and there is even an infrasonic filter to reject airborne vibrations that can cause parasitic feedback.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProven Technology Enhanced by Innovation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNAD's PowerDrive Circuit has been proven to offer a remarkable combination of high current drive needed for complex loudspeaker loads, and high levels of undistorted dynamic power. By monitoring the precise operating condition of the power amplifier, PowerDrive uses this intelligence to automatically optimise the power supply settings for uniformly low distortion and maximum power in the real world of music listening. As featured in our top Masters Series models, PowerDrive uses a complex 'analogue computer' to determine the optimal settings. For the C 316BEE V2, NAD's Director of Advanced Development, Bjorn Erik Edvardsen, developed a clever new computation circuit requiring fewer parts at a much lower cost without any reduction in effectiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll the hallmarks of NAD technology are present, from the generously sized toroidal power transformer and low ESR smoothing capacitors, to the multiple regulated secondary supplies, to the heavy duty discrete output transistors, the C 316BEE V2 is every bit as refined and sophisticated as other NAD amplifiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eValue\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe are confident that the C 316BEE V2 will set new benchmarks for performance, both measured and audible, at this affordable price point. Unless you have power hungry speakers, listen at dangerously loud levels, or have a very large room, the C 316BEE V2 will be the amplifier for you. Fundamental specifications for noise, distortion, power, stereo separation, and volume control tracking, are all class leading and would be impressive on an amplifier costing many times its modest price.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSimplicity\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile the C 316BEE V2 has everything necessary for musical enjoyment, it is refreshingly limited to the essentials: six inputs, one set of speakers, a headphone jack, and full function remote control. It has a compact size and a handsome yet understated exterior. It is essential NAD.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile its bells and whistles may not be as extensive as our more expensive offerings, the C 316V2 is far from a \"stripped down\" product. With five line level inputs, an MM Phono Input, full IR remote control, defeatable tone controls and a front panel input for a phone or tablet, the C 316V2 is fully equipped to be the control centre for a high performance music system. Continuous power is a conservative 40 watts, and dynamic power (more important for music listening) is impressively more than 100 watts! This is far more usable power on tap than other amplifiers at this price, and this power is available across the entire audible band at a class leading 0.03%.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sonic result of this high technology is a relaxed and inviting sound that digs out the subtle details in your favourite recordings and presents them across a panoramic stereo sound stage. The impressive dynamic power reserves make the C 316BEE V2 sound both articulate and alive.

With the optional BluOS module, the C 368 can connect to your network and be controlled through a smartphone, tablet, or desktop, and connect wirelessly to any other BluOS Enabled device to create a multi-room High Resolution Audio system. You can also instantly connect to the C 368 through Bluetooth, giving you the ability to stream wirelessly from any Bluetooth Enabled device, and if you're a vinyl fan, you can also add a turntable. Enjoying music has never been so easy. A totally modern approach to amplification, the C 368 is the ultimate amp for any music lover's system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGetting it Right\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe never overlook the most crucial of requirements. From low noise circuits to precise volume control action, to accurate channel balance and proper input and output impedance characteristics, we here at NAD do everything we can to get these things exactly right. We also include an MM Phono stage with precisely accurate RIAA equalisation, high overload margins, extremely low noise, and an innovative circuit to suppress infrasonic noise that is present on all LPs - all without affecting bass response. Our line inputs can accommodate all kinds of analogue source components by offering ideal input impedance characteristics with linear ultra-low-noise buffer amplifiers to prevent any sonic degradation. We include a separate headphone amplifier with low output impedance and very high output voltage capability - enough to drive even high impedance studio monitor headphones. Low impedance line outputs that can connect to subwoofers extend the versatility of this well thought out amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eForward Thinking\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModular Design Construction (MDC), allows you to customise your NAD amplifier with additional capabilities and features, now or in the future. The two available MDC slots can accommodate a variety of upgrade modules including 4K video capable HDMI switching, additional Digital Inputs, additional Analogue and Phono Inputs, and one of the most advanced Hi-Res Audio multi-room wireless systems available, the BluOS music management system developed by Bluesound. BluOS connects to your network and is controlled via smartphone, tablet or desktop to manage your music collection and connect you to a growing list of high-quality streaming music services.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstant Connection\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can connect instantly to the C 368 with Bluetooth aptX, allowing you to stream music wirelessly from any Bluetooth-enabled device. Bluetooth can also be used to listen to other sources connected to the C 368 via wireless headphones. There is also a control app to control all functions of your C 368. Adding the optional BluOS Module provides access to your local area network via Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet connection and adds Hi-Res Audio streaming. The BluOS Module also makes the C 368 a single-zone streamer in a complete multi-room wireless music system that is fully compatible with BluOS Enabled music systems and wireless speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSophisticated Power\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the last few years, NAD has moved away from the old-fashioned linear power supplies and Class AB output stages that waste energy, and have instead developed even better performing circuits based on switch mode power supplies and Class D output stages. Once thought to be inferior to traditional topologies, NAD's advanced work in this area has created some of the best performing amplifiers regardless of basic design principle. These new designs are very linear over a wide bandwidth and provide consistent performance into all speaker loads, providing a dramatic advance over previous models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the power supply is capable of 80 watts continuously and over 120 watts instantaneously to allow for short-term musical transients. It can operate with any AC mains voltage from 100 to 240 volts and provides pure DC power to all the various stages of the C 368. This highly efficient supply also provides near perfect regulation of voltage across a wide range of conditions and provides a solid noise-free foundation for the amplifying stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C 368 uses a customized version of the proven Hypex UcD output stage. This allows for massive power with nearly unmeasurable distortion and noise in the audible range.

With the optional BluOS module, the C 368 can connect to your network and be controlled through a smartphone, tablet, or desktop, and connect wirelessly to any other BluOS Enabled device to create a multi-room High Resolution Audio system. You can also instantly connect to the C 368 through Bluetooth, giving you the ability to stream wirelessly from any Bluetooth Enabled device, and if you're a vinyl fan, you can also add a turntable. Enjoying music has never been so easy.

From low noise circuits to precise volume control action, to accurate channel balance and proper input and output impedance characteristics, we here at NAD do everything we can to get these things exactly right. We also include an MM Phono stage with precisely accurate RIAA equalisation, high overload margins, extremely low noise, and an innovative circuit to suppress infrasonic noise that is present on all LPs - all without affecting bass response. Our line inputs can accommodate all kinds of analogue source components by offering ideal input impedance characteristics with linear ultra-low-noise buffer amplifiers to prevent any sonic degradation. We include a separate headphone amplifier with low output impedance and very high output voltage capability - enough to drive even high impedance studio monitor headphones. Low impedance line outputs that can connect to subwoofers extend the versatility of this well thought out amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eForward Thinking\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModular Design Construction (MDC), allows you to customise your NAD amplifier with additional capabilities and features, now or in the future. The two available MDC slots can accommodate a variety of upgrade modules including 4K video capable HDMI switching, additional Digital Inputs, additional Analogue and Phono Inputs, and one of the most advanced Hi-Res Audio multi-room wireless systems available, the BluOS music management system developed by Bluesound. BluOS connects to your network and is controlled via smartphone, tablet or desktop to manage your music collection and connect you to a growing list of high-quality streaming music services.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstant Connection\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can connect instantly to the C 368 with Bluetooth aptX, allowing you to stream music wirelessly from any Bluetooth-enabled device. Bluetooth can also be used to listen to other sources connected to the C 368 via wireless headphones. There is also a control app to control all functions of your C 368. Adding the optional BluOS Module provides access to your local area network via Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet connection and adds Hi-Res Audio streaming. The BluOS Module also makes the C 368 a single-zone streamer in a complete multi-room wireless music system that is fully compatible with BluOS Enabled music systems and wireless speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSophisticated Power\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the last few years, NAD has moved away from the old-fashioned linear power supplies and Class AB output stages that waste energy, and have instead developed even better performing circuits based on switch mode power supplies and Class D output stages. Once thought to be inferior to traditional topologies, NAD's advanced work in this area has created some of the best performing amplifiers regardless of basic design principle. These new designs are very linear over a wide bandwidth and provide consistent performance into all speaker loads, providing a dramatic advance over previous models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the power supply is capable of 80 watts continuously and over 120 watts instantaneously to allow for short-term musical transients. It can operate with any AC mains voltage from 100 to 240 volts and provides pure DC power to all the various stages of the C 368. This highly efficient supply also provides near perfect regulation of voltage across a wide range of conditions and provides a solid noise-free foundation for the amplifying stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C 368 uses a customized version of the proven Hypex UcD output stage.

Whether it's peeling away the plastic or marvelling at the album artwork, the process of buying and opening a CD is both intimate and sacred. With our C 568 CD Player, your CDs finally get the attention they deserve. Whether it's a newly bought CD or a personal mix you made for yourself, the C 568 will seamlessly play the disc without any skips or glitches. Building on the success of our C 565BEE, the C 568 includes all the features you need for an easy and joyous CD-listening experience.

The cumulative effect of these changes is dramatic, improving low frequency slam and extension, while maintaining the pace and timing for which the C 565BEE was so lavishly praised. Image depth and scale are further enhanced while retaining the timbral accuracy and lucid harmonic structure of its predecessor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Circuitry\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCreating one's own favourite compilation CD-R and CD-RW's on a CD ripper is becoming ever more popular, and unlike older CD players, the C 568 will easily play these discs, even those encoded with MP3 and WMA compression. Nearly 10 hours of music can be recorded onto one CD-R when using 128kps compression allowing 'all day' background music listening. We have also included a number of additional features to make your listening more enjoyable: RANDOM gives the listener a random selection of all tracks on the disc in play, and REPEAT allows repeat playing of either the entire disc or individual tracks. Individual tracks can also be quickly accessed using the SKIP function (Forward and Back), while the SCAN function (Forward and Back) gives listeners the opportunity to reach specific sections of the track.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMoreover, the Vacuum Fluorescent Display provides clear and comprehensive information to the listener. The track number is displayed, and for those who regularly record CDs, the button displays the current time elapsed or remaining for complete CDs or individual tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIt's All About the Detail\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the case of the NAD C 568, careful attention has been paid so that best use of the ever-increasing number of products now available with digital inputs (outboard D to A converters, AV Receivers, etc) can be made. The coaxial output is buffered and isolated by a transformer from the converter itself, and the output impedance has been carefully tailored to produce a precise 75 Ohm impedance to ensure perfect matching. This attention to detail reduces the timing errors (jitter) that could otherwise distort the digital data stream. An optical Toslink output is also provided allowing connection to devices that only provide this option.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupplied with the new NAD CD-8 full function remote control, the C 568 offers all the features described above from the comfort of your listening chair. On top of that, the remote control handset gives you direct track access and programming facilities, saving the user's time when they're storing preferred song titles.

{"id":7705894125811,"title":"NAD C 588 Turntable","handle":"nad-c-588-tur","description":"\u003ch2\u003eNAD is well known for innovative, high performance, yet affordable, turntables. While the basic operation of a turntable seems simple, extracting all the musical energy from the record grooves without exciting destructive resonances requires both science and art.\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003ch2\u003eLet’s take a closer look at each of the elements of the C 588 with an explanation of the choices we made.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eElectronic Speed Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaving exact pitch (speed) is important, but human hearing is much more sensitive to momentary changes in speed which we express with the terms Wow and Flutter. As its name sounds, Wow is a slow cyclical speed variation. The most severe example is the sound of a severely warped record, where the stylus travels faster on the rising side of the warp and slower on the descending side, causing abrupt changes in musical pitch. Flutter is what we call very fast and small variations that are usually generated by the motor. The C 588 addresses both of these problems with proven and effective solutions. A specialised, high precision, synchronous clock motor is both very smooth and accurate, especially when driven from a stable AC voltage. To ensure a clean and stable AC voltage we isolate the AC Mains by first converting it to a clean DC voltage, and then electronically generating the precise AC frequency to regulate the synchronous motor. Using a specially formulated belt to drive the platter further filters and isolates any remaining vibration. All rotating parts are made from aluminium alloy machined to very tight tolerances to eliminate any eccentricity or vibration in the drive system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTonearm And Cartridge\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 588 features a custom designed carbon fiber tonearm shaft with a fixed metal head shell and features a decoupled counterweight and magnetic anti-skate compensation. An Ortofon 2M Red cartridge is factory installed and offers superb tracking and a delicately nuanced full range sound. The C 588 uses a longer than usual 9\" tonearm to optimise overhang and reduce the tracking angle error. To perfectly align the stylus we include adjustments for azimuth and vertical tracking angle, and include a gauge to calibrate the alignment, a rarity at this price point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eClosing The Triangle\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo fully realise the micro-dynamics of music requires a very tight mechanical coupling of the platter and the tonearm. This forms a triangle, as vibrations can travel from record being played, to the platter, through the shaft and bearing to the base (plinth), up the arm mount through the arm pivot and down the arm to the cartridge and stylus. There are many separate parts in this path and some of them are required move relative to one another through mechanical bearing interfaces. If there is any play in these mechanical interfaces musical energy will be lost. This why NAD has paid strict attention to precision machining, assembly, and testing that is so important in a turntable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eResonance Control And Isolation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReducing all spurious vibrations to a minimum is critical to getting the best result when playing vinyl.

While the basic operation of a turntable seems simple, extracting all the musical energy from the record grooves without exciting destructive resonances requires both science and art.\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003ch2\u003eLet’s take a closer look at each of the elements of the C 588 with an explanation of the choices we made.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eElectronic Speed Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaving exact pitch (speed) is important, but human hearing is much more sensitive to momentary changes in speed which we express with the terms Wow and Flutter. As its name sounds, Wow is a slow cyclical speed variation. The most severe example is the sound of a severely warped record, where the stylus travels faster on the rising side of the warp and slower on the descending side, causing abrupt changes in musical pitch. Flutter is what we call very fast and small variations that are usually generated by the motor. The C 588 addresses both of these problems with proven and effective solutions. A specialised, high precision, synchronous clock motor is both very smooth and accurate, especially when driven from a stable AC voltage. To ensure a clean and stable AC voltage we isolate the AC Mains by first converting it to a clean DC voltage, and then electronically generating the precise AC frequency to regulate the synchronous motor. Using a specially formulated belt to drive the platter further filters and isolates any remaining vibration. All rotating parts are made from aluminium alloy machined to very tight tolerances to eliminate any eccentricity or vibration in the drive system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTonearm And Cartridge\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 588 features a custom designed carbon fiber tonearm shaft with a fixed metal head shell and features a decoupled counterweight and magnetic anti-skate compensation. An Ortofon 2M Red cartridge is factory installed and offers superb tracking and a delicately nuanced full range sound. The C 588 uses a longer than usual 9\" tonearm to optimise overhang and reduce the tracking angle error. To perfectly align the stylus we include adjustments for azimuth and vertical tracking angle, and include a gauge to calibrate the alignment, a rarity at this price point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eClosing The Triangle\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo fully realise the micro-dynamics of music requires a very tight mechanical coupling of the platter and the tonearm. This forms a triangle, as vibrations can travel from record being played, to the platter, through the shaft and bearing to the base (plinth), up the arm mount through the arm pivot and down the arm to the cartridge and stylus. There are many separate parts in this path and some of them are required move relative to one another through mechanical bearing interfaces. If there is any play in these mechanical interfaces musical energy will be lost. This why NAD has paid strict attention to precision machining, assembly, and testing that is so important in a turntable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eResonance Control And Isolation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReducing all spurious vibrations to a minimum is critical to getting the best result when playing vinyl. Since these vibrations can come from various sources, both internal and external, the materials and dimensions must all be carefully calculated reduce and balance all the resonances to prevent a buildup of energy at particular frequencies. To isolate external vibrations from the loudspeakers or footfalls bouncing the floor, we use a massive MDF base with specially tuned vibration damping feet, along with a thick non-resonant dust cover.

You see, there has never before been a component offering such a rich palette of both new and proven technology. Bold statements? Read on.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRedefining the Architecture of Hi-Fi Playback\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs we move deeper into the 21st Century the way music is distributed and enjoyed continues to evolve away from physical media to streaming. It also has moved away from analog to digital. The C 658 has incorporated these fundamental truths to create an entirely new type of component that combines a Network Streamer, a state-of-the art DAC, and many aspects of the traditional Preamplifier into a single highly cost effective package. And thanks to NAD's exclusive Modular Design Construction, it will keep pace with the latest technology, not yet introduced, but inevitably coming in the future. In fact, an optional HDMI 4k switcher module is available now allowing the best sound from any of the many HDMI sources available (like game consoles and video STBs). While the C 658 immediately replaces (or adds) your Streamer, DAC, and Preamp, it also adds many new features you may not be aware of, like a Bluetooth aptX HD transmitter to use with your wireless headphones. The highly flexible outputs allow for a true balanced connection to powered speakers or amplifiers. Single-ended connections for amplifiers and subwoofers are also provided and include an adjustable subwoofer crossover executed perfectly in the digital domain. A highly sophisticated MM Phono input is also included along with line inputs for legacy analog components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBluOS Enabled\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlso on board is BluOS, the most sophisticated High Res streaming system available.

The C 658 becomes a node in the BluOS ecosystem allowing high res network streaming to 64 zones and control options for iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac OS phones, tablets, and desk top devices. BluOS also supports all major smart home controllers and is available in a wide range of products making it easy to create a whole house audio system with the C 658 at its heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTraditional NAD Performance and Value\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 658 is part of our Classic Series of components which have an enviable reputation for giving Music Lovers more enjoyment for less money. If you want a solid block of hand-crafted aluminium with gold plated accents you'll need to look elsewhere. If you want state-of-the-art performance and features in a sturdy no-nonsense package then you have the right address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHigh Resolution in Every Detail\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost NAD components have been High Res for 45 years with very wide bandwidth, low distortion, and ultra-low noise. We just never had High Res source material to play. With High Res digital recording and streaming, combined with advanced technology like MQA, record companies are opening their vaults and releasing Studio Master Quality recordings. MQA decoding is available through BluOS Streaming content. The C 658 is pure High Res from input to output and features the ESS Sabre 32bit DAC , one of the best performing DACs on the market today with its 118dB Dynamic Range and incredibly low jitter spec. All preamp functions are executed in the digital domain including the same wide range non-truncating digital volume control used in our Masters Series components. This offers an incredibly short analog signal path that, rather uniquely, is identical for all volume settings. Sophisticated active power supplies provide super clean voltages to all circuits to keep noise and distortion at the edge of measurability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMake the Speakers Disappear (It's Not Magic)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 658 is also the first NAD stereo component to feature Dirac Live room correction, the most sophisticated and effective room correction available. Dirac corrects the impulse response of your speakers, in addition to the frequency response of your room, for a truly transparent window into the musical performance. When the room resonances are tamed and the transient response is corrected, the result is magical.

You see, there has never before been a component offering such a rich palette of both new and proven technology. Bold statements? Read on.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRedefining the Architecture of Hi-Fi Playback\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs we move deeper into the 21st Century the way music is distributed and enjoyed continues to evolve away from physical media to streaming. It also has moved away from analog to digital. The C 658 has incorporated these fundamental truths to create an entirely new type of component that combines a Network Streamer, a state-of-the art DAC, and many aspects of the traditional Preamplifier into a single highly cost effective package. And thanks to NAD's exclusive Modular Design Construction, it will keep pace with the latest technology, not yet introduced, but inevitably coming in the future. In fact, an optional HDMI 4k switcher module is available now allowing the best sound from any of the many HDMI sources available (like game consoles and video STBs). While the C 658 immediately replaces (or adds) your Streamer, DAC, and Preamp, it also adds many new features you may not be aware of, like a Bluetooth aptX HD transmitter to use with your wireless headphones. The highly flexible outputs allow for a true balanced connection to powered speakers or amplifiers. Single-ended connections for amplifiers and subwoofers are also provided and include an adjustable subwoofer crossover executed perfectly in the digital domain. A highly sophisticated MM Phono input is also included along with line inputs for legacy analog components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBluOS Enabled\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlso on board is BluOS, the most sophisticated High Res streaming system available. BluOS natively supports over 15 streaming music services and indexing of over 250,000 tracks from local network sources. The C 658 becomes a node in the BluOS ecosystem allowing high res network streaming to 64 zones and control options for iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac OS phones, tablets, and desk top devices. BluOS also supports all major smart home controllers and is available in a wide range of products making it easy to create a whole house audio system with the C 658 at its heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTraditional NAD Performance and Value\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 658 is part of our Classic Series of components which have an enviable reputation for giving Music Lovers more enjoyment for less money. If you want a solid block of hand-crafted aluminium with gold plated accents you'll need to look elsewhere. If you want state-of-the-art performance and features in a sturdy no-nonsense package then you have the right address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHigh Resolution in Every Detail\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost NAD components have been High Res for 45 years with very wide bandwidth, low distortion, and ultra-low noise. We just never had High Res source material to play. With High Res digital recording and streaming, combined with advanced technology like MQA, record companies are opening their vaults and releasing Studio Master Quality recordings. MQA decoding is available through BluOS Streaming content. The C 658 is pure High Res from input to output and features the ESS Sabre 32bit DAC , one of the best performing DACs on the market today with its 118dB Dynamic Range and incredibly low jitter spec. All preamp functions are executed in the digital domain including the same wide range non-truncating digital volume control used in our Masters Series components. This offers an incredibly short analog signal path that, rather uniquely, is identical for all volume settings. Sophisticated active power supplies provide super clean voltages to all circuits to keep noise and distortion at the edge of measurability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMake the Speakers Disappear (It's Not Magic)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 658 is also the first NAD stereo component to feature Dirac Live room correction, the most sophisticated and effective room correction available. Dirac corrects the impulse response of your speakers, in addition to the frequency response of your room, for a truly transparent window into the musical performance.

NAD's major focus is to find new technology that improves musical performance while consuming less power and using fewer non-renewable resources in manufacturing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- split --\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAudio Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eRated Power at 8 ohms\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 x 30 Watts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIHF Dynamic Power 8 ohms\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 x 60 Watts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e4 ohms\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 x 100 Watts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e2 ohms\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 x 150 Watts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSignal\/Noise Ratio (A-weighted, ref. 1 Watt)\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e≥90dB\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eChannel Separation 1kHz\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e≥75dB\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e10kHz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e≥65dB\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eChannel Balance\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e0 ±0.3dB\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFrequency Response (20Hz - 20kHz)\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e0dB to -0.3dB\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTotal Harmonic Distortion\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e≤0.005%\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eMaximum input level\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e5V\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIMD (SMPTE)\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e0.02%\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIMD (CCIF)\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e0.003%\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMM Phono Input\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003ePhono Signal-to-Noise Ratio\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u0026gt;82 dB (200 ohms source, A-weighted, ref. 500 mV out)\u003cbr\u003e76 dB (MM cartridge source, IHF; A-weighted, ref. 500 mV out)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInput sensitivity\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.15 mV (ref. 500 mV out, Volume maximum)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eMaximum input signal at 1kHz\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u0026gt;90 mVrms (ref. 0.1 % THD)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFrequency response\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e±0.3 dB (20 Hz - 20 kHz)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGeneral\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandby Power\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e≤0.5 Watts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSupports bit rate\/sample rate\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eup to 24\/192 (via Digital Audio input)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eUnit Dimensions (W x H x D) Gross\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e58 x 186 x 219mm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 5\/16 x 7 3\/8 x 8 5\/8\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eNet Weight\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.38kg (3.05lb)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e2.1kg (4.6lb)\u003c\/p\u003e"}

Adding additional rooms is easy and affordable using Bluesound all-in-one speakers, or you can add premium components from NAD, DALI, and others to provide amazing sound throughout your home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eUnderstated Elegance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith Industrial Design by award winning design firm DF-ID, the M10 takes a minimalist theme to a new level of elegance. The svelte proportions are enhanced by authentic materials; solid brushed aluminium and smooth glass. Completely operable by Wi-Fi connection to the BluOS App, one need never touch the M10. But as you approach the M10 the high resolution touch screen beckons as the graphic changes from 'now playing' to 'control panel' allowing many operations directly from the front panel without opening an App. It also shows what's playing and what is next in the Play Que.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eUnmatched Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe M10 uses NAD's most sophisticated Masters Series technology to create a sonic performance that is second to none. HybridDigital amplification featuring the remarkable HypeX nCore amplification stage offers state-of-the-art performance along with the ability to drive any loudspeaker. Highly efficient and remarkably powerful, the M10 can render even the most subtle musical details with 'you are there' realism. Effortless dynamics and a complete absence of electronic noise are hallmarks of this advanced technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eEasy Smart Home Integration\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe have spent considerable effort to make the M10 fully compatible with all the leading smart home systems from leading companies like Apple, Crestron, Control4, Lutron and many others. This means that along with your lighting, shades, HVAC, and security, you can seamlessly control your BluOS multi-room music system from a common interface. All our integrations are certified for reliable operation. We also have custom BluOS Apps for iOS and Android tablets and phones, as well as desktop control from Windows and Apple OS.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMusic Meant To Be Heard, Not Seen\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe NAD Masters M10 represents a new kind of High End Audio system that is luxurious and smart, but very discreet. It can perform the same function that required a rack full of components just a few short years ago and in many ways is superior.

The only true wireless High-Resolution multi-room system available today, BluOS supports the new standard for High Res streaming, Master Quality Authenticated (MQA). BluOS also supports over 20 free and paid subscription services as well as supporting locally stored music libraries. With BluOS, the M33 retains all the audiophile features and further adds a range of facilities that will expand its capabilities yet simplifies ease-of-use at the same time. Operable with the BluOS app, the supplied remote control or through hands-free control with any Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant device, the M33's front panel never needs to be touched.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDIRAC Live Room Correction On Board\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eExperts agree that room acoustics are the weakest link in most sound systems with room reflections deteriorating tonal balance and dynamics. Dirac, one of the most highly regarded Room Correction systems available, not only adjusts for frequency response, but unlike other room correction systems, it also optimises the impulse response. By optimising the speaker\/room interface, music sounds more natural and lifelike. Supplied with the M33 is a precision microphone to measure the room at and around the listening position so your system can be precisely calibrated for optimum performance. Even the most sophisticated loudspeakers can be markedly improved using Dirac calibration. Each of the 5 Dirac memory slots can store a unique room measurement or different frequency target curves to suit a particular musical taste or genre. The M33 also supports Dirac's advanced 'Bass Control' feature with two independent subwoofer outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFlexibility Meets Long-Term Value\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn its standard form, the M33 is very complete with a wide range of in\/outputs, BluOS, Dirac, HDMI and more already fully integrated. It will meet the requirements of the most demanding users. To minimise the risk of future obsolescence, the M33 comes with two MDC (Modular Design Construction) slots that allow for further expansion. NAD introduced the MDC platform well over a decade ago and allowed updating products with new technologies which didn't even exist at time of introduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eConnection and Wireless Flexibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether looking to connect digital or analogue sources, the M33 comes well equipped to accommodate for all of these: 6 digital inputs and 3 analogue inputs, including MM phono. Around back, the rear panel hosts two sets of speaker outputs capable of bi-wiring and a stereo Subwoofer Output with a fully configurable Digital Crossover. Airplay 2 and Bluetooth AptX-HD allow for local wireless streaming from a phone or tablet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome features will be available via a future software update\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePhono and Headphones Are Not Forgotten\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe M33 has a high-quality MM Phono Input that rivals specialised outboard units. Accurate RIAA equalisation, a clever phase cancelling infrasonic filter, and a huge overload margin combine to bring out the best in LPs. Furthermore, headphone enthusiasts will delight at the sound of the discrete headphone amplifier, which is able to drive even planar and high impedance studio phones. With high voltage and low output impedance, headphones will sound their best. For those who wish to enjoy their headphones but not be tethered to a cable, the integrated Bluetooth AptX-HD module makes it simple to possible to enjoy wireless headphones as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAttractive Design With Outstanding Ergonomics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe all alloy casework is elegant yet practical. The single control knob for volume is supplemented by a colour LCD touchscreen display. Rigid panels with magnetic iso-point feet provide a solid foundation for the multi-layer circuit boards and intricate internal construction. The M33 employs a completely modern and fresh take on the traditional stereo amplifier, with features and performance from the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSmart Home Integration Made Easy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBluOS provides hands-free control with full integration of any Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant device. Through Airplay 2, control is also possible with Siri. Considerable effort has been spent to make the M33 fully compatible with all the leading smart home systems from leading companies like Apple, Crestron, Control4, Lutron, KNX and many others. This means that along with lighting, shades, HVAC, and security, the integrator or user can seamlessly control the BluOS multi-room music system from a common interface. All integrations are certified for reliable operation.

Dirac, one of the most highly regarded Room Correction systems available, not only adjusts for frequency response, but unlike other room correction systems, it also optimises the impulse response. By optimising the speaker\/room interface, music sounds more natural and lifelike. Supplied with the M33 is a precision microphone to measure the room at and around the listening position so your system can be precisely calibrated for optimum performance. Even the most sophisticated loudspeakers can be markedly improved using Dirac calibration. Each of the 5 Dirac memory slots can store a unique room measurement or different frequency target curves to suit a particular musical taste or genre. The M33 also supports Dirac's advanced 'Bass Control' feature with two independent subwoofer outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFlexibility Meets Long-Term Value\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn its standard form, the M33 is very complete with a wide range of in\/outputs, BluOS, Dirac, HDMI and more already fully integrated. It will meet the requirements of the most demanding users. To minimise the risk of future obsolescence, the M33 comes with two MDC (Modular Design Construction) slots that allow for further expansion. NAD introduced the MDC platform well over a decade ago and allowed updating products with new technologies which didn't even exist at time of introduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eConnection and Wireless Flexibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether looking to connect digital or analogue sources, the M33 comes well equipped to accommodate for all of these: 6 digital inputs and 3 analogue inputs, including MM phono. Around back, the rear panel hosts two sets of speaker outputs capable of bi-wiring and a stereo Subwoofer Output with a fully configurable Digital Crossover. Airplay 2 and Bluetooth AptX-HD allow for local wireless streaming from a phone or tablet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome features will be available via a future software update\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePhono and Headphones Are Not Forgotten\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe M33 has a high-quality MM Phono Input that rivals specialised outboard units. Accurate RIAA equalisation, a clever phase cancelling infrasonic filter, and a huge overload margin combine to bring out the best in LPs. Furthermore, headphone enthusiasts will delight at the sound of the discrete headphone amplifier, which is able to drive even planar and high impedance studio phones. With high voltage and low output impedance, headphones will sound their best. For those who wish to enjoy their headphones but not be tethered to a cable, the integrated Bluetooth AptX-HD module makes it simple to possible to enjoy wireless headphones as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAttractive Design With Outstanding Ergonomics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe all alloy casework is elegant yet practical. The single control knob for volume is supplemented by a colour LCD touchscreen display. Rigid panels with magnetic iso-point feet provide a solid foundation for the multi-layer circuit boards and intricate internal construction. The M33 employs a completely modern and fresh take on the traditional stereo amplifier, with features and performance from the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSmart Home Integration Made Easy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBluOS provides hands-free control with full integration of any Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant device. Through Airplay 2, control is also possible with Siri. Considerable effort has been spent to make the M33 fully compatible with all the leading smart home systems from leading companies like Apple, Crestron, Control4, Lutron, KNX and many others. This means that along with lighting, shades, HVAC, and security, the integrator or user can seamlessly control the BluOS multi-room music system from a common interface. All integrations are certified for reliable operation. The custom BluOS Apps for iOS and Android tablets and phones, as well as desktop control from Windows and Apple OS are available free-of-charge and are updated regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluOS Streaming DAC Amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHybridDigital Purifi Eigentakt Amplifier Technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContinuous Power: 200W into 8\/4 Ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32-BIT\/384kHz ESS Sabre DAC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirac Live Room LE Correction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour LCD touch display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluOS multi-room Integration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x MDC Slots for Future Expansion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWireless control with AirPlay 2 and aptX HD Bluetooth Integration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComprehensive digital and analog connectivity including HDMI eARC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrates seamlessly with leading smarthome control systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMDC (Modular Design Construction) offers ability to upgrade to future digital formats as they become available.
