NAD C 3050 Integrated Amplifier (Without BluOS)

Created to celebrate 50 years of NAD innovation, the NAD C 3050 Integrated Amplifier blends vintage hi-fi charm with modern engineering. Inspired by the original NAD 3030 Stereophonic Amplifier, its walnut-finished cabinet, dual VU meters, and cursive-script logo honour the classic design while housing thoroughly modern circuitry. This is the standard C 3050 version without the BluOS streaming module installed. The amplifier does not include built-in BluOS network streaming or Dirac Live room correction. However, its MDC2 expansion slot allows you to add the optional MDC2 BluOS-D module later, providing high-resolution BluOS streaming and Dirac Live Room Correction, including a Limited Bandwidth licence and calibration microphone for room correction up to 500Hz. Recognised with multiple Product of the Year awards, the C 3050 combines distinctive heritage styling, powerful modern amplification, and flexible connectivity in a uniquely engaging integrated amplifier.
