THOROUGHLY MODERN
With built-in Ethernet and Wi-Fi, and a network streamer based on the
award-winning BluOS software platform, the C 700 has everything you
need to play music through your favourite speakers. You can use the
BluOS app to select tunes from internet radio and dozens of different
streaming services, or play music stored on an external drive connected
to the C 700’s USB port.
The C700 is certified Roon Ready, so you can stream music from a Roon
Core server. Spotify Connect and Tidal Connect are also included so you
can control playback from the apps for those services; AirPlay 2 allows
you to stream music from Apple devices and iTunes libraries. Music can
also be selected by voice, using the Amazon Alexa, Apple Siri, or Google
Assistant protocol.
The C 700’s high-resolution DAC can accept streams up to 24-bit/192kHz.
Like all BluOS-enabled components, the C 700 has full MQA decoding and
rendering. With these features, you can enjoy lossless and
high-resolution audio from services such as Amazon Music HD, Deezer,
Qobuz, and Tidal.
NAD offers software tools that allow the C 700 to be integrated into
smart home control systems from Control4, Crestron, Elan, RTI, and
others. This allows control of music playback, along with other home
systems like lighting, shades, HVAC, and security.
CONNECT AND CONTROL
The C 700 has two pairs of RCA analog inputs, as well as coaxial and
optical digital inputs, for connecting disc players, game consoles, media
adapters, and other components. There’s also an HDMI eARC port for
connecting an HDTV with HDMI eARC support. This allows the C 700’s
volume setting to be adjusted from the TV’s remote.
In addition to the loudspeaker outputs, the C 700 has a subwoofer
output jack. Using the BluOS app, you can set low and high-pass
crossover settings, for a seamless blend between the subwoofer and
main speakers.
The C 700 also has two-way aptX HD Bluetooth, so you can listen to
music through wireless headphones, and stream audio from any smart
device.
LEGENDARY VALUE
The NAD C 700 BluOS Streaming Amplifier is a compact, stylish,
all-in-one solution, designed with today’s connected music lovers
in mind. Small but mighty, the C 700 will thrill listeners with its
effortless, dynamic sound. Out of the box, it can play music from a
huge range of local, networked, and cloud-based sources. And with
its digital and analog inputs, the C 700 also plays nicely with legacy
components.
The C 700 can be used as a standalone music system; or it can be
integrated into a BluOS whole-home music system with as many as
63 zones, with full support for high-resolution audio. It can also be
combined with other AirPlay 2 components for whole-home music.
Ever since NAD introduced the legendary 3020 integrated amplifier
in 1978, the NAD brand has been renowned for value, performance,
and innovation. With the C 700 BluOS Streaming Amplifier, NAD has
completely updated that tradition for the streaming era.
