NAD C3050

NAD C3050 Stereophonic Amplifier 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. With the optional MDC2 BluOS-D module, the C 3050 adds high-resolution streaming and Dirac Live Room Correction (Includes Dirac Live® Limited Bandwidth licence and calibration microphone for room correction up to 500Hz - MDC2 BluOS-D card required). Recognised with multiple Product of the Year awards, it brings heritage styling and confident performance together in a uniquely engaging amplifier. Key Features: Vintage-inspired design with walnut-finished cabinet, VU meters, and 1970s NAD branding 100 watts per channel of HybridDigital UcD amplification High-performance 32-bit/384kHz differential DAC MDC2 expansion slot for BluOS streaming and Dirac Live Room Correction (Includes Dirac Live® Limited Bandwidth licence and calibration microphone for room correction up to 500Hz - MDC2 BluOS-D card required) HDMI eARC input for seamless TV audio integration Ultra-low-noise MM phono stage with infrasonic filtering Optical and coaxial digital inputs for flexible digital connectivity Analogue line-level input with low-noise buffer amplifiers Bidirectional aptX HD Bluetooth and dedicated headphone amplifier Speaker A/B outputs, subwoofer output, and pre-out/main-in flexibility BluOS ready Specifications: Line Input, Pre-Out THD (20 Hz – 20 kHz) <0.0005 % at 2V out Signal-to-Noise Ratio >95 dB (IHF; A-weighted, ref. 500 mV out, unity gain) Channel separation >100 dB (1 kHz) Input impedance (R and C) 28 kohms + 360 pF Maximum input signal >4.5 Vrms (ref. 0.1 % THD) Output impedance 440 ohms Input sensitivity 270 mV (ref. 500 mV out, Volume maximum) Frequency response ±0.3 dB (20 Hz - 20 kHz) Maximum voltage output -IHF load >2 V (ref. 0.1 % THD) Phono Input, Pre-Out THD (20 Hz – 20 kHz) <0.03% at 2 V out Signal-to-Noise Ratio >79 dB (200 ohms source; A-weighted, ref. 500 mV out) Input impedance (R and C) 46 kohms/100 pF Input sensitivity 5.5 mV (ref. 500 mV out, Volume maximum) Frequency response ±0.3 dB (20 Hz - 20 kHz) Maximum input signal at 1kHz >80 mVrms (ref. 0.1 % THD) Line Input, Headphone Out THD (20 Hz – 20 kHz) <0.005% at 1V out Signal-to-Noise Ratio >96 dB (32 ohms loads; A-WTD, ref. 2 V out, unity gain Channel separation >60 dB at 1kHz Frequency response ±0.3 dB (20 Hz - 20 kHz) User Interface Supported operating system Music playback from network shares on the following desktop operating systems: Microsoft Windows XP, 2000, Vista, 7, 8 to current Windows Operating Systems and macOS versions Mobile Application Free BluOS Controller App available for download from the respective App stores of Apple iOS devices (iPad, iPhone and iPod), Android devices, Kindle Fire and Windows or macOS desktops Main In, Speaker Out Continuous output power into 8 ohms and 4 ohms 100W (ref. 20 Hz-20 kHz at rated THD, both channels driven) THD (20 Hz – 20 kHz) <0.03% (250 mW to 100 W, 8 ohms and 4 ohms) Signal-to-Noise Ratio >95dB (A-weighted, 500 mV input, ref. 1 W out in 8 ohms) Clipping power >115 W (at 1 kHz 0.1 % THD) IHF dynamic power 8 ohms: 180 W Peak output current >20A (in 1 ohm, 1 ms) Channel separation >75dB (1 kHz) Input Sensitivity 540 mV Digital: -6dBFS Frequency response ±0.3 dB (20 Hz - 20 kHz) Power consumption - at Auto Standby ON and Network Standby OFF 0.5 W* Power consumption - at Auto Standby ON and Network Standby ON 2.0 W** Power consumption - OFF mode (Power switched OFF) 0.1 W Frequency band 2.402G- 2.480G Dimensions and weight Gross dimensions (W x H x D) **** 450 x 127 x 355mm Net weight 10kg Shipping weight 12.6kg
