C 368 HYBRID DIGITAL DAC AMPLIFIER

Expansive Power with Unprecedented Flexibility

The C 368 ties together all the critical elements of a top performing music system; music

sources past, present, and future, in addition to providing a nearly unrestricted reservoir

of power that allows your speakers to reveal every nuance of musical detail. This

advanced ampliﬁer includes many cutting-edge technological breakthroughs developed by

NAD over decades of creating affordable ultra-high performance audio components.

Getting the Basics Right

It 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,

precise volume control action, 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. We

include an MM Phono stage with precisely accurate RIAA equalization, 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 caused by

inappropriate loading of the source device. 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 other ampliﬁers or subwoofers extend the versatility of this well thought out

ampliﬁer. These are all details you can hear.
