Product Description

Product Description

With 6 line level inputs, full IR remote control, defeatable tone controls and a front panel input for a portable MP3 player, the C315BEE is fully equipped to be the control center for a high performance music system. Continuous power is a conservative 40 watts, and dynamic power (more important for music listening) is impressively rated at 90 watts into 8 Ohms! This is far more usable power on tap than other amps at this price. And this power is available across the entire audible band at a class leading 0.02% rated distortion!NAD's PowerDrive circuit has been proven to offer a remarkable combination of high current drive needed for complex loudspeaker loads combined with high levels of undistorted dynamic power. By monitoring the precise operating condition of the power amplifier, PowerDrive uses this intelligence to automatically optimize the power supply settings for uniformly low distortion and maximum power in the real world of music listening. For the C315BEE, NAD's Director of Advanced Development, Bjorn Erik Edvardsen, developed a clever computation circuit (PowerDrive-S) requiring fewer parts at a much lower cost without any reduction in effectiveness (although this invention is limited to use in lower power amplifiers).All 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 C315BEE is every bit as refined and sophisticated as other NAD amplifiers.
