Product Details
Getting the Basics Right
NAD leaves no detail overlooked in its Classic Series amplifiers. The C 328 showcases low-noise circuits, precise volume control, and accurate channel balance, essential characteristics for audiophiles building their dream system. It also features appropriate input and output impedance, high overload margins, and stability with difficult speaker loads. The MM phono stage offers correct RIAA equalization, high overload margins, and low noise, with an innovative circuit to suppress infrasonic noise without affecting bass response.
Versatility
The C 328’s line inputs support a variety of analogue sources, with linear, ultra-low-noise buffer amplifiers preventing any degradation in sound quality. The dedicated headphone amplifier provides low output impedance and high output voltage, capable of driving high-impedance studio headphones. The low-impedance line outputs allow for subwoofer connections, further enhancing the amplifier’s versatility.
Streaming Ready
Bluetooth support means you can stream music and playlists directly from smartphones, tablets, or computers, connecting instantly to enjoy your favorite music services. Thanks to its high-performance digital circuitry, Bluetooth streaming with the C 328 offers exceptional sound quality.
Sophisticated Power
NAD has moved beyond traditional linear power supplies and Class AB output stages, opting instead for more efficient switch mode power supplies and Class D output stages. Once thought to be inferior to conventional designs, NAD’s advancements in this field have resulted in some of the best amplifiers available today, offering consistent linear performance across a broad bandwidth and across all speaker loads.
The C 328’s power supply can deliver over 100 watts of audio output when necessary and operates on any AC mains voltage from 100V to 240V. This efficient power supply ensures near-perfect voltage regulation under various conditions, providing a stable, noise-free foundation for the amplifier.
The C 328 uses a customized version of the proven Hypex UcD output stage, enabling it to deliver massive power with virtually immeasurable distortion and noise within the audible range. Every element of the design has been carefully optimized to maximize performance. The C 328 is the perfect starter amplifier for both audiophiles and music lovers, offering NAD’s signature flexibility and powerful output.
