Brand: NAD
The NAD C340 is a high-performance integrated amplifier that offers exceptional audio quality and versatility. Some of its key features include:1. Custom-designed toroidal transformer: This large-capacity transformer provides a stable and efficient power supply for the entire amplifier. It also helps to reduce noise and improve the overall sonic performance.2. Advanced rectification: The C340 uses high-speed solid-state rectifiers to ensure clean and stable power for the amplifier's output stages.3. Direct Coupled Input Stages: The C340's input stages are direct coupled (not capacitively coupled like many other designs), which allows for an incredibly low noise floor and seemingly limitless dynamic range.4. Burr-Brown OpAmp: The C340 uses Burr-Brown OpAmps in its input and driver stages for their low noise and high-current capacity.5. Single-ended and balanced inputs: With a total of 7 inputs (including both balanced and single-ended connections), the C340 can accommodate a variety of audio sources. It also has a headphone output with a dedicated amplifier circuit for supreme audio performance.6. Multi-stage power supply: The C340's power supply is multi-stage, which ensures ample power for the amplifier section and low noise for the input stages.7. Upgradeable: The C340 features an upgradeable op-amp selection via the Cue-Tronics accessory, allowing for even further customization and optimization of the amplifier’s sound quality.The NAD C340 offers a sublime balance between finesse and power, making it an excellent choice for high-performance audio enthusiasts.
