Every setting change is stored automatically for each of the 4 inputs. Every time you change the input, the last chosen settings are recalled automatically. For example, you can connect 4 MC cartridges or 4 MM cartridges or 2MC and 2 MM, or 3 MM and one MC, every combination is possible with different settings for every input.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDe-emphasis EQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe de-emphasis circuit is passive, the best possible approach for extreme flat frequency response without interference with the other stages.

A New York Steinway does have noticeable sonic differences from a Hamburg Steinway, while a Guarneri violin sounds distinct from a Stradivarius. To capture all those nuances, the loudspeakers \u0026amp; electronics need to act in unison, neither obscuring, nor exaggerating detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sound and the level of performance of the Moonriver 505 phono stage is hard to describe and it must be heard to be believed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDesign \u0026amp; User Interface\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe had a very clear vision when conceiving the Model 505 hybrid phono stage: Classic design with a modern touch; high quality materials such as oversized aluminium knobs, solid walnut cheeks, sturdy chassis and an ergonomic user interface.\u003cbr\u003eThere are no “for show” aesthetics here, no display with complicated serial menus and hidden functions, nor a single multi-function knob for “minimalistic” purposes.\u003cbr\u003eThe heart of the Model 505 is pure and minimal, but the interface is user-oriented and easy to operate by anyone in seconds, with no need to resort to the user manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiving direct access to all necessary adjustments, the 505 includes 4 knobs and 5 switches for all the adjustments: 4 inputs, 12 gain settings (6 for MM and 6 for MC), 5 MM capacitance settings, 5 MC load settings, including a custom option, 3 MM load settings and EQ choice for RIAA, Decca or Columbia 78 rpm records. The 505 phono stage will handle the signal from your precious MC cartridge with unmatched performance and it will make your everyday MM cartridge sound like never before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePower supply\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\" class=\"western\"\u003eThe Moonriver 505 hybrid phono stage contains 6 separated power supplies, including a massive 70000uf total capacitance and it is designed in dual mono operation.

The MM and MC settings use different input stages with different op amps specifically chosen for each case. All setting functions are performed with air sealed, extremely low impedance relays. Finally, a discrete, high current output circuit delivers lifelike dynamics on the output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMicrocontroller operation with save memory function\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA microcontroller controls all functions and ensures an entirely silent operation. Every setting change is stored automatically for each of the 4 inputs. Every time you change the input, the last chosen settings are recalled automatically. For example, you can connect 4 MC cartridges or 4 MM cartridges or 2MC and 2 MM, or 3 MM and one MC, every combination is possible with different settings for every input.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDe-emphasis EQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe de-emphasis circuit is passive, the best possible approach for extreme flat frequency response without interference with the other stages. The EQ circuits involve 2 equalisation curves, a RIAA and a DECCA or COLUMBIA curve for 78rpm records. Both EQ circuits are formed using a minimalistic approach with very few, extremely low tolerance, audiophile quality components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e"}

{"id":14911971852665,"title":"Moonriver Audio Reference 404 Integrated Amplifier","handle":"moonriver-audio-reference-404-integrated-amplifier","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe 404 Reference integrated amplifier\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the runaway success of The Moonriver Model 404 (Standard), we decided to move a step further by improving on the already excellent design platform of the Standard 404 model. The Moonriver Model 404 Reference achieves even better performance over the Standard Model, while retaining a sensible price point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust like the Standard Model 404, the 404 Reference amplifier will extract hidden elements, and render textures from within any audio format; but with the capability to drive any speaker on the market – despite its moderate power. Only the source, speakers and room will set the performance limit. Its culture will suit all music, as the Model 404 is by design, set to define the faintest nuances of which tonal integrity is composed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe power supply section has been improved to the maximum. The 404 standard uses a total of 57000uf capacitance. The 404 Reference lifts the capacitance to a spectacular 107000uf of which 21000 of them are reserved for the preamp only.  This enormous increment expands the driving behaviour; the dynamic character; digs out more detail; low level information; a deeper and more articulate soundtstage; space between instruments is vast, while the bass has greater authority and is more confident than ever before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe texture of each individual instrument is exposed exponentially in comparison with the Standard version. A fully discrete preamp section serves to provide acute dynamic awareness, while a high output stage that is custom-optimised for bandwidth and distortion, gives neutral character and transient fidelity. A sophisticated selection of components fuses the design against tonal traits, therefore preserving naturalness throughout the shortest feasible signal path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, an integrated phono stage, USB DAC, (two) preamp outputs and a tape monitor loop expand functionality to form an ideally flexible integrated amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModular Architecture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoonriver 404 Reference amplifier is modular like its brother; it can accommodate an MM or MM\/MC phono stage and a USB asynchronous DAC.  Fitting these modules is simple, and can take place at any time, on or after purchase.  The USB DAC may also be upgraded with a newer version to meet future needs and technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBalance Control\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou may find this feature to be vanishingly scarce in audiophile products as a result of today’s ‘minimalist’ design mentality and the various myths accompanying it. However, balance control addresses a common problem: speakers that are positioned in asymmetry, in a non-balanced room environment. It therefore provides the simplest tweak towards achieving a proper soundstage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLiving rooms and house furniture are meant to serve everyday life and may not be positioned in an ideal listening spot, evenly distanced from each speaker to form an equilateral triangle. It is also not uncommon for one speaker to have to be placed nearer room boundaries than the other, having various frequencies boosted in a more or less predictable pattern. More often than not, balance control is incredibly useful as it drastically helps overcome volume level unevenness and in some cases, even reclaiming the stereo effect and the resulting focused sound stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is to be expected, the way the balance control is implemented on the Moonriver 404 Reference amplifier – in parallel, will not degrade or affect the signal in any way that is determinable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDiscovering the layout\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel 404 Reference, like the standard model, incorporates no less than 5 separate power supplies, each featuring overload protection. The power amplifier specifically runs on a dual mono configuration, beginning from separate windings on the toroidal transformer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWBT nextgenTM speaker terminals ensure the massive flow of current from the amplifier’s output stage, is able to drive even “difficult to drive” speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSignal switches are implemented via relays, while volume attenuation is trusted on the legendary blue ALPS pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA soft start circuit based on a 30A relay ensures that even the on\/off switch is thought out to work with virtually no burden or wear for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 404 Reference chassis reduces unwanted resonant vibrations even further with absorbent materials, and better integral mechanical support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComponents are carefully selected for both suitability and reliability. We make no use of surface-mount in analog circuits, despite the fact that through-hole production costs more, and requires advanced space management \u0026amp; layout strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach element utilised has to be of proven stability and sustained higher performance – proficient implementation provided, before making it into our analog paths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs for the sound, we are not to say whether Model 404 Reference is virtually transparent or inherently forgiving. Voicing it to appreciate the playlist and respect the user at all times has been the sum of all of our effort; \u003cem\u003ea sincere effort to achieve effortlessness.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uncode_text_column\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOptional Phono Stage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel 404 Reference comes with two options in the phono stage department; one is MM only and the other is MM\/MC selectable.

The SPDIF supports PCM streams up to 192kHz\/24bit due to the limitation of the SPDIF (coaxial) specifications. There are 3 separated power supplies with very low noise regulators, 2 for the ESS dac board and 1 for the analog circuit.

The Moonriver Model 404 Reference achieves even better performance over the Standard Model, while retaining a sensible price point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust like the Standard Model 404, the 404 Reference amplifier will extract hidden elements, and render textures from within any audio format; but with the capability to drive any speaker on the market – despite its moderate power. Only the source, speakers and room will set the performance limit. Its culture will suit all music, as the Model 404 is by design, set to define the faintest nuances of which tonal integrity is composed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe power supply section has been improved to the maximum. The 404 standard uses a total of 57000uf capacitance. The 404 Reference lifts the capacitance to a spectacular 107000uf of which 21000 of them are reserved for the preamp only.  This enormous increment expands the driving behaviour; the dynamic character; digs out more detail; low level information; a deeper and more articulate soundtstage; space between instruments is vast, while the bass has greater authority and is more confident than ever before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe texture of each individual instrument is exposed exponentially in comparison with the Standard version. A fully discrete preamp section serves to provide acute dynamic awareness, while a high output stage that is custom-optimised for bandwidth and distortion, gives neutral character and transient fidelity. A sophisticated selection of components fuses the design against tonal traits, therefore preserving naturalness throughout the shortest feasible signal path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, an integrated phono stage, USB DAC, (two) preamp outputs and a tape monitor loop expand functionality to form an ideally flexible integrated amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModular Architecture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoonriver 404 Reference amplifier is modular like its brother; it can accommodate an MM or MM\/MC phono stage and a USB asynchronous DAC.  Fitting these modules is simple, and can take place at any time, on or after purchase.  The USB DAC may also be upgraded with a newer version to meet future needs and technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBalance Control\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou may find this feature to be vanishingly scarce in audiophile products as a result of today’s ‘minimalist’ design mentality and the various myths accompanying it. However, balance control addresses a common problem: speakers that are positioned in asymmetry, in a non-balanced room environment. It therefore provides the simplest tweak towards achieving a proper soundstage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLiving rooms and house furniture are meant to serve everyday life and may not be positioned in an ideal listening spot, evenly distanced from each speaker to form an equilateral triangle. It is also not uncommon for one speaker to have to be placed nearer room boundaries than the other, having various frequencies boosted in a more or less predictable pattern. More often than not, balance control is incredibly useful as it drastically helps overcome volume level unevenness and in some cases, even reclaiming the stereo effect and the resulting focused sound stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is to be expected, the way the balance control is implemented on the Moonriver 404 Reference amplifier – in parallel, will not degrade or affect the signal in any way that is determinable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDiscovering the layout\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel 404 Reference, like the standard model, incorporates no less than 5 separate power supplies, each featuring overload protection. The power amplifier specifically runs on a dual mono configuration, beginning from separate windings on the toroidal transformer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWBT nextgenTM speaker terminals ensure the massive flow of current from the amplifier’s output stage, is able to drive even “difficult to drive” speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSignal switches are implemented via relays, while volume attenuation is trusted on the legendary blue ALPS pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA soft start circuit based on a 30A relay ensures that even the on\/off switch is thought out to work with virtually no burden or wear for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 404 Reference chassis reduces unwanted resonant vibrations even further with absorbent materials, and better integral mechanical support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComponents are carefully selected for both suitability and reliability. We make no use of surface-mount in analog circuits, despite the fact that through-hole production costs more, and requires advanced space management \u0026amp; layout strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach element utilised has to be of proven stability and sustained higher performance – proficient implementation provided, before making it into our analog paths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs for the sound, we are not to say whether Model 404 Reference is virtually transparent or inherently forgiving. Voicing it to appreciate the playlist and respect the user at all times has been the sum of all of our effort; \u003cem\u003ea sincere effort to achieve effortlessness.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uncode_text_column\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOptional Phono Stage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel 404 Reference comes with two options in the phono stage department; one is MM only and the other is MM\/MC selectable.

{"id":14850059043193,"title":"Music Fidelity A1 Integrated Amplifier","handle":"music-fidelity-a1-integrated-amplifier","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Musical Fidelity A1 is a piece of hi-fi history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst produced in the 1980s, its pure Class A electrical design was famous not just for its ability to work with a wide variety of equipment of the day, but for its ability to deliver a sound performance like nothing else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new generation of Musical Fidelity A1, released in 2023, stays true to the original design in almost every way, only making changes to improve certain technical characteristics and suit modern requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe electrical layout of the A1 features completely discrete, fully symmetrical pure Class A technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivering 25W of power (to an 8Ω load), it can also handle 25A of maximum current output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough these numbers may seem low compared to some modern amplifiers, the A1 is still able to drive more complex speakers thanks to its ability to slide (not “switch”) into Class B operation when further current draw is temporarily needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A1’s transformer design is directly inspired by the 1988 design but has been updated with more efficient dual-mono split-rail windings and better components for improved stability and better heat management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amplifier stages are now powered by fully independent supplies for left and right channel allowing for better power handling and stereo imaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach power amplifier also now has double the supply capacity, resulting in reduced ripple and noise artefacts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe low-noise pre-amplifier circuitry is the same as the original A1, though this area also benefits from new modern touches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, the DIRECT switch on the front panel allows users to bypass the Gain stage before the musical signal reaches the volume dial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy switching this button on, the pre-amplifier stage will apply roughly 10dB less gain, suiting it to more modern, high-gain source devices that may benefit from a wider volume dial range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecond, the use of a new ALPS RK series motorised potentiometer for the volume dial not only allows greater accuracy and reliability, but it means the 2023 A1 amplifier can also make use of a remote control for volume adjustments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside five RCA stereo inputs, a fixed level output and a variable output, the A1 also features a high-quality built-in phono stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe phono input allows for direct connection to a turntable, whether it has a moving magnet (MM) or a moving coil (MC) cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe low-noise design and automatic impedance-matching for MC cartridges make this a viable solution, and a great convenience for vinyl record lovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe industrial design of the Musical Fidelity A1 is the same as the original from the 1980s, with its angular front panel, full-length top-mounted heatsink and side-mounted ventilation panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe only minor modifications are intended to help enhance the user experience and manage the heat output from the pure Class A technology employed within.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result, when combined with the intricate workings, is an amplifier that takes you right back to the original design brief for the A1: to enjoy music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A1 sounds sweet and fluid, facilitating a beautiful environment for your favourite music to come alive within.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen paired with well-matched speakers in a suitably sized room it delivers a warm, full, and exciting sound, without

Musical Fidelity A1 is a piece of hi-fi history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst produced in the 1980s, its pure Class A electrical design was famous not just for its ability to work with a wide variety of equipment of the day, but for its ability to deliver a sound performance like nothing else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new generation of Musical Fidelity A1, released in 2023, stays true to the original design in almost every way, only making changes to improve certain technical characteristics and suit modern requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe electrical layout of the A1 features completely discrete, fully symmetrical pure Class A technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivering 25W of power (to an 8Ω load), it can also handle 25A of maximum current output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough these numbers may seem low compared to some modern amplifiers, the A1 is still able to drive more complex speakers thanks to its ability to slide (not “switch”) into Class B operation when further current draw is temporarily needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A1’s transformer design is directly inspired by the 1988 design but has been updated with more efficient dual-mono split-rail windings and better components for improved stability and better heat management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amplifier stages are now powered by fully independent supplies for left and right channel allowing for better power handling and stereo imaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach power amplifier also now has double the supply capacity, resulting in reduced ripple and noise artefacts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe low-noise pre-amplifier circuitry is the same as the original A1, though this area also benefits from new modern touches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, the DIRECT switch on the front panel allows users to bypass the Gain stage before the musical signal reaches the volume dial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy switching this button on, the pre-amplifier stage will apply roughly 10dB less gain, suiting it to more modern, high-gain source devices that may benefit from a wider volume dial range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecond, the use of a new ALPS RK series motorised potentiometer for the volume dial not only allows greater accuracy and reliability, but it means the 2023 A1 amplifier can also make use of a remote control for volume adjustments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside five RCA stereo inputs, a fixed level output and a variable output, the A1 also features a high-quality built-in phono stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe phono input allows for direct connection to a turntable, whether it has a moving magnet (MM) or a moving coil (MC) cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe low-noise design and automatic impedance-matching for MC cartridges make this a viable solution, and a great convenience for vinyl record lovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe industrial design of the Musical Fidelity A1 is the same as the original from the 1980s, with its angular front panel, full-length top-mounted heatsink and side-mounted ventilation panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe only minor modifications are intended to help enhance the user experience and manage the heat output from the pure Class A technology employed within.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result, when combined with the intricate workings, is an amplifier that takes you right back to the original design brief for the A1: to enjoy music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A1 sounds sweet and fluid, facilitating a beautiful environment for your favourite music to come alive within.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen paired with well-matched speakers in a suitably sized room it delivers a warm, full, and exciting sound, without harshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmplifier\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower: 25 Watts per channel into 8 Ohms\u003cbr\u003eVoltage: 42.5 Volts peak to

{"id":7705893470451,"title":"NAD C 316BEE 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 -

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.

By compensating for acoustic anomalies in your listening environment, Dirac Live dramatically improves bass clarity, imaging, and timbral accuracy. Thanks to its two-way architecture, the MDC2 BluOS-D performs room correction for all sources connected to your C 399.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eEverything's Connected\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 399 can accommodate all your digital and analogue sources. Its MM phono stage delivers ultra-precise RIAA equalisation, extremely low noise, and high overload margins. The phono preamp also features an innovative circuit that suppresses the infrasonic noise present on all LPs, without compromising bass response. There are two sets of line-level line inputs, with low-noise buffer amplifiers to prevent sonic degradation. The C 399 has two optical and two coaxial digital inputs, plus an HDMI-eARC port for playing audio from a connected TV, while controlling amplifier output with the TV's remote control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to two sets of speaker outputs, the C 399 has preamp output jacks and dual subwoofer outputs. Two-way apt-X HD Bluetooth allows 24-bit streaming from mobile devices, and high-quality output to Bluetooth headphones. Also built-in is a dedicated headphone amplifier with low output impedance and high output voltage capability, enabling the C 399 to drive demanding high-impedance studio monitor headphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Timeless Classic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs with every NAD amplifier ever made, the C 399 gets the basics right: a precise volume control with accurate channel balance, low-noise circuits, and correct input and output impedances.

Intelligent. Powerful. Efficient\u003c\/h1\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAs the new flagship of NAD's Classic series of integrated amps, the C 399 HybridDigital DAC Amplifier takes NAD's commitment to lasting value and sonic excellence to a whole new level.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 399 employs NAD's Hypex HybridDigital nCore amplifier circuitry, which until now has been available only on Masters Series amplifiers. Its digital section is built around a 32-bit\/384kHz ESS Sabre DAC, the same chip used in NAD's acclaimed M10 and M33 Masters Series amplifiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 399 is the first amplifier to incorporate the latest generation of NAD's Modular Design Construction (MDC) technology. MDC2 lets users add optional modules that provide functions such as BluOS multi-room music streaming and Dirac Live room correction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePerfect Power\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrickled down from NAD's Masters Series, the C 399's HybridDigital nCore amplifier can deliver 180 Watts per channel continuous power, and 250 Watts per channel instantaneous power. Highly efficient and remarkably powerful, the HybridDigital nCore amplifier can produce musical transients effortlessly. The design is renowned for its wide bandwidth, flat frequency response, clean clipping behaviour with instant recovery, high current capability, and stability into demanding low-impedance speaker loads. Noise and distortion are vanishingly low under all operating conditions. The minute levels of harmonic distortion are dominated by sonically benign second and third harmonics. The Hypex nCore design enables the C 399 to produce neutral, distortion-free sound even at very high listening levels, with exquisite detail, superb portrayal of space, and thrilling dynamics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlso trickled down from the Masters Series is the ESS Sabre 9028 high-resolution DAC, a design noted for near-zero levels of clock jitter, ultra-low noise and distortion, and wide dynamic range. This premium DAC enables the C 399 to reproduce all your digital sources with amazing musicality, stunning clarity, and precise soundstaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFuture Proof\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 2007, NAD introduced Modular Design Construction, an innovative architecture for adding new functions to existing components. Many NAD products have rear-panel slots for MDC modules that perform HDMI switching, BluOS multi-room music streaming, Dolby Atmos surround processing, and other functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 399 is the first product to feature NAD's new MDC2 architecture. By enabling two-way communications between the module and component, MDC2 opens up the future for new upgrades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEquipped with Wi-Fi and Ethernet, the optional MDC2 BluOS-D module lets listeners play music from their favourite streaming services through the C 399, using the acclaimed BluOS Controller app for Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows. Like all BluOS-enabled products, the MDC2 BluOS-D has integrated support for dozens of streaming services; and supports Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, and Tidal Connect. Two-way communications also enable the MDC2 BluOS-D to stream music from sources connected to the C 399 to BluOS-enabled components in other rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Dirac Live function lets you measure your room's acoustics using a supplied microphone and intuitive app, and then upload correction curves to the MDC2 BluOS-D. By compensating for acoustic anomalies in your listening environment, Dirac Live dramatically improves bass clarity, imaging, and timbral accuracy. Thanks to its two-way architecture, the MDC2 BluOS-D performs room correction for all sources connected to your C 399.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eEverything's Connected\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 399 can accommodate all your digital and analogue sources. Its MM phono stage delivers ultra-precise RIAA equalisation, extremely low noise, and high overload margins. The phono preamp also features an innovative circuit that suppresses the infrasonic noise present on all LPs, without compromising bass response. There are two sets of line-level line inputs, with low-noise buffer amplifiers to prevent sonic degradation. The C 399 has two optical and two coaxial digital inputs, plus an HDMI-eARC port for playing audio from a connected TV, while controlling amplifier output with the TV's remote control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to two sets of speaker outputs, the C 399 has preamp output jacks and dual subwoofer outputs. Two-way apt-X HD Bluetooth allows 24-bit streaming from mobile devices, and high-quality output to Bluetooth headphones. Also built-in is a dedicated headphone amplifier with low output impedance and high output voltage capability, enabling the C 399 to drive demanding high-impedance studio monitor headphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Timeless Classic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs with every NAD amplifier ever made, the C 399 gets the basics right: a precise volume control with accurate channel balance, low-noise circuits, and correct input and output impedances. But it goes far beyond the basics.

{"id":7705894289651,"title":"NAD D 3020 v2 Hybrid Digital DAC Amplifier","handle":"nad-d-3020-v2","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe original NAD 3020 introduced a generation of music lovers to true high-fidelity sound.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the 1970's, over a million people rediscovered their music when they placed a NAD 3020 between their turntable and loudspeakers. This little gem outshined amplifiers costing 10 times more with its big, warm, detailed sound. Today, the source is more likely to be a computer or smartphone than a turntable, but the ability to choose speakers that perfectly suit one's taste is still a compelling argument for upgrading to an NAD amplifier. The D 3020 starts with the original NAD 3020 concept and brings it straight into the 21st century using the latest high-speed digital technology. Now with V2, we have refined the looks and added a Phono input for vinyl playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReinventing an Icon\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy adapting to today's media sources and using state-of-the-art digital technology for the new world of digital music, the D 3020 puts a completely modern spin on a revered icon. The original designer of the 3020, NAD's Director of Advanced Technology, Bjorn Erik Edvardsen, has been pivotal in developing the D 3020 for the new digital generation. Offering an excellent quality 24\/192 DAC with 8 channels mixed to 2 for improved resolution, the D 3020 V2 represents the same kind of value-bending innovation that gave the original 3020 its legendary overachieving phono stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMore Connected\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe D 3020 offers inputs for your digital and analogue sources. Coaxial and optical inputs allow many different digital sources to be connected, from CD and DVD players, to set top boxes, media streamers like AppleTV, or satellite and cable receivers. There are also analogue inputs including a sophisticated MM Phono input. Far from just another set of sockets, this Phono stage includes highly accurate RIAA equalisation, an Infrasonic Warp Filter, and features both high overload margins and extremely low noise. With V2 we've also added a PreOut for increased connectivity in the output stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePower that Delivers\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePower output may sound small at 30W per channel, but like all NAD amplifiers this is very misleading, as a properly designed 30W amplifier can sound superior to a 100W amplifier from a lesser brand. With its very small form factor, the D 3020 will astound many for its ability to drive difficult loudspeakers to satisfying levels without adding noise or distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReal World Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNAD rewrote the rules for amplifiers when designing the original 3020. Instead of letting laboratory test equipment have the last word, we made sure that we could properly drive real loudspeakers with real music for the real world. The D 3020 lives up to this promise through a unique implementation of NAD PowerDrive developed by Edvardsen, that allows low impedance drive (current) and high dynamic power (voltage) at vanishingly low distortion levels. This refinement of PowerDrive combined with a precision soft clipping circuit, lets the D 3020 sound even more powerful than it already is. An innovative Bass EQ circuit helps small speakers sound big without overdriving or damaging ported woofers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStream with Bluetooth\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe D 3020 V2 delivers the convenience of wireless streaming with its Bluetooth capability. Stream all your music from a smartphone, tablet, or laptop. The D 3020 even supports the highest audio quality Bluetooth, aptX, which is becoming ever more popular for its excellent sound quality and low power consumption compared to Wi-Fi.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMean and Green\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe D 3020's highly efficient design wastes less energy, requiring only 20% of the power needed by traditional Hi-Fi amplifiers.

This little gem outshined amplifiers costing 10 times more with its big, warm, detailed sound. Today, the source is more likely to be a computer or smartphone than a turntable, but the ability to choose speakers that perfectly suit one's taste is still a compelling argument for upgrading to an NAD amplifier. The D 3020 starts with the original NAD 3020 concept and brings it straight into the 21st century using the latest high-speed digital technology. Now with V2, we have refined the looks and added a Phono input for vinyl playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReinventing an Icon\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy adapting to today's media sources and using state-of-the-art digital technology for the new world of digital music, the D 3020 puts a completely modern spin on a revered icon. The original designer of the 3020, NAD's Director of Advanced Technology, Bjorn Erik Edvardsen, has been pivotal in developing the D 3020 for the new digital generation. Offering an excellent quality 24\/192 DAC with 8 channels mixed to 2 for improved resolution, the D 3020 V2 represents the same kind of value-bending innovation that gave the original 3020 its legendary overachieving phono stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMore Connected\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe D 3020 offers inputs for your digital and analogue sources. Coaxial and optical inputs allow many different digital sources to be connected, from CD and DVD players, to set top boxes, media streamers like AppleTV, or satellite and cable receivers. There are also analogue inputs including a sophisticated MM Phono input. Far from just another set of sockets, this Phono stage includes highly accurate RIAA equalisation, an Infrasonic Warp Filter, and features both high overload margins and extremely low noise. With V2 we've also added a PreOut for increased connectivity in the output stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePower that Delivers\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePower output may sound small at 30W per channel, but like all NAD amplifiers this is very misleading, as a properly designed 30W amplifier can sound superior to a 100W amplifier from a lesser brand. With its very small form factor, the D 3020 will astound many for its ability to drive difficult loudspeakers to satisfying levels without adding noise or distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReal World Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNAD rewrote the rules for amplifiers when designing the original 3020. Instead of letting laboratory test equipment have the last word, we made sure that we could properly drive real loudspeakers with real music for the real world. The D 3020 lives up to this promise through a unique implementation of NAD PowerDrive developed by Edvardsen, that allows low impedance drive (current) and high dynamic power (voltage) at vanishingly low distortion levels. This refinement of PowerDrive combined with a precision soft clipping circuit, lets the D 3020 sound even more powerful than it already is. An innovative Bass EQ circuit helps small speakers sound big without overdriving or damaging ported woofers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStream with Bluetooth\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe D 3020 V2 delivers the convenience of wireless streaming with its Bluetooth capability. Stream all your music from a smartphone, tablet, or laptop. The D 3020 even supports the highest audio quality Bluetooth, aptX, which is becoming ever more popular for its excellent sound quality and low power consumption compared to Wi-Fi.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMean and Green\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe D 3020's highly efficient design wastes less energy, requiring only 20% of the power needed by traditional Hi-Fi amplifiers.

compact, energy efficient, powerful, silent, High Resolution capable, and packed with cutting edge features like DSD and MQA playback.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNAD's expertise in both digital and analog engineering is on full display in this flexible and affordable amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHigher Fidelity\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHigh Res is to audio, what High Definition is to video. It is more lifelike and natural, and an altogether more enjoyable listening experience. With features like Master Quality Authenticated (MQA) the D 3045 can faithfully and accurately reproduce the full spectrum of sound encapsulated on the Studio Master. Until now, music lovers have only been allowed to hear an edited version of the full fidelity because our delivery systems, be it tape, vinyl, or CD, did not have the capacity to hold all the information contained in the Studio Master recording. With High Res downloads and streaming we can now enjoy exactly the same experience the artist heard in the studio when the recording was first made.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAmazing Capability\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe recognise that just because there is a new better format available doesn't mean your present music collection will be discarded - far from it. So we have included all the inputs and circuits required to listen to all your current music, while also possessing the capability to fully exploit today's best High Res sources. Especially notable is the Asynchronous USB input for attaching a computer which allows High Res streaming using one of the several High Res programs like Roon, JRiver, and Amarra. Asynchronous operation uses the D 3045's precision clock (instead of the computers clock) to reduce jitter to a minimum and make the USB format work ideally for audio. For everyday convenience we have included Bluetooth wireless streaming featuring aptX HD, the latest 24-bit High Res version of Bluetooth that is being supported by more and more phones and tablets. Additionally, if you have Bluetooth headphones, you can also stream your non-Bluetooth sources wirelessly to your headphones, or you can plug in your wired headphones to enjoy the exceptional performance of our low impedance, high current, Headphone Amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures You Won't Find Anywhere Else\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLove vinyl? The D 3045 features NAD's super accurate, wide dynamic range, Moving Magnet Phono preamp to extract every last morsel of sound from your LPs. If you still play CDs, we have both analog and digital inputs. The digital inputs allow use of the advanced High Res DAC built into the D 3045. You can even send the sound from your TV to the NAD and seamlessly control the system using your TV's remote by taking advantage of the HDMI ARC input. Complete your system by adding a subwoofer with the convenient Sub Out jack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePerformance And Price\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe NAD D 3045 includes advanced capabilities usually only found in far more expensive components. High Res USB DACs? They start at about 3X the price of the D 3045. High Current headphone amplifiers start at the price of the D 3045 and go up from there. Power Amps featuring 60wpc and with the low distortion and high current capability of the D 3045 are rare at this price.
