NAD C 328 HybridDigital Integrated Amplifier

The NAD C 328 HybridDigital DAC Amplifier is a compact integrated amplifier built to deliver true hi-fi sound without the size, heat, or complexity of traditional designs. Using NAD’s HybridDigital UcD amplification, it provides 50 watts per channel of clean, controlled power into both 8- and 4-ohm speakers—ideal for everything from compact bookshelf setups to more demanding loudspeakers. A high-performance DAC keeps digital sources crisp and low-noise, while the built-in MM phono stage adds accurate RIAA equalisation for detailed, quiet vinyl playback. With Bluetooth streaming, a dedicated high-output headphone amplifier, and a subwoofer output for easy low-end expansion, the C 328 is a flexible centerpiece for a modern two-channel system. Auto Standby and Eco mode keep power use extremely low when you’re not listening, making it as practical as it is musical.

The NAD C328 is part of ListenUp's NAD Integrated Amplifiers Collection.
