NAD C 316BEE v2 High Current Stereo Amplifier

NAD has a distinct reputation for creating some of the best performing budget amplifiers of all time. The lineage is impressive, all the way from the 3020 of 1978 to the current C 328, with many “Best Amp” awards and five-star reviews along the way. The C 316BEE lived up to expectations, garnering multiple accolades including an EISA award for ‘Best Product 2008-2009’ and top recommendations from the world’s leading audio publications.

The NAD 316BEE V2 is a high-current stereo amplifier, designed to simplify the technology behind the product. The engineers who developed the amplifier set out to create an amp with as few parts as possible, without sacrificing sound quality. As a result, they were able to craft one of the most powerful stereo amplifiers on the market that is more affordable than the competition. Yet despite its economical design, it features everything you need to produce crystal clear audio, including six inputs, a headphone jack, one set of speakers and remote control. Plus, the device also comes fully equipped with bass and treble controls, tone defeat, and an MM phono input for listening to vinyl.
