An incredibly powerful amp, the C 388 employs NAD technologies like Asymmetrical PowerDrive\u003c\/span\u003e\u003csup\u003e™\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e to ensure that even the most demanding speakers can be driven to life-like listening levels without dynamic compression. Thanks to its advanced preamplifier circuit, the C 388 gives low noise at all volume settings, ensuring that you’ll be able to listen to your music without any distractions. Another technology that’s available to the C 388 is the BluOS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003csup\u003e™\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e module, a music management system that can stream your music library wirelessly across your home Wi-Fi network.

This advanced amplifier includes many cutting edge technological breakthroughs developed by NAD over decades of creating affordable ultra-high performance audio components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eGetting the Basics Right\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is surprising how many seemingly advanced products in the market today often miss many of the most basic requirements for satisfying performance. NAD starts by getting these things precisely right and advances from there. We include an MM Phono stage with precisely accurate RIAA equalization, high overload margins, extremely low noise, and an innovative circuit to suppress infrasonic noise that is present on all LPs – all without affecting bass response. Our line inputs can accommodate all kinds of analogue source components by offering ideal input impedance characteristics with linear ultra-low-noise buffer amplifiers to prevent any sonic degradation. We include a separate headphone amplifier with low output impedance and very high output voltage capability – enough to drive even high impedance studio monitor headphones. Low impedance line outputs that can connect to other amplifiers or subwoofers extend the versatility of this well thought out amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFuture-Proof Modular Design\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis NAD exclusive feature allows you to customise your NAD amplifier with additional capabilities and features, now or in the future. The two available MDC slots can accommodate a variety of upgrade modules including 4K video capable HDMI switching, additional Digital Inputs, additional Analogue and Phono Inputs, and one of the most advanced Hi-Res Audio multi-room wireless systems available, the BluOS\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e music management system developed by Bluesound. BluOS connects to your network and is controlled via smartphone, tablet, or desktop device to manage your music collection and connect to a growing list of high-quality streaming music services.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eConnected and Smart\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnect instantly to the C 388 via Bluetooth\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e aptX\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e to allow you to stream music wirelessly from any Bluetooth-enabled device with true CD-quality sound. Bluetooth can also be used to listen to other sources connected to the C 388 via wireless headphones such as NAD’s own HP70. Add the optional BluOS Module to provide access to your local area network via Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet connection and adds Hi-Res Audio streaming. The BluOS Module also makes the C 388 a single-zone streamer in a complete multi-room wireless music system that is fully compatible with BluOS Enabled music systems and wireless speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSophisticated Power\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNAD has moved away from the old-fashioned power-hungry linear power supplies and Class AB output stages that waste nearly half of the energy consumed and produce heat rather than sound. Instead, we have developed even better performing circuits based on switch mode power supplies and Class D output stages. Once thought to be inferior to traditional topologies, NAD’s advanced work in this area has created some of the best performing amplifiers regardless of basic design principle. These new designs are very linear over a wide bandwidth and provide consistent performance into all speaker loads, providing a dramatic advance over previous models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe power supply is capable of 150 watts continuously and over 250 watts instantaneously to allow for short-term musical transients. It can operate with any AC mains voltage from 100 to 240 volts and provides pure DC power to all the various stages of the C 388. This highly efficient supply also provides near perfect regulation of voltage across a wide range of conditions and provides a solid noise-free foundation for the amplifying stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C 388 uses a customized version of the proven Hypex UcD output stage operating in a fully balanced bridge configuration. This allows for massive power with nearly immeasurable distortion and noise in the audible range. Every detail of this design has been carefully planned and perfectly executed to produce out every last drop of performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-4-12 tablet-fullwidth-fix\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-8-12 clearfix\"\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"clearfix\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e150W x 2 Continuous power into 8 or 4 Ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluetooth A2DP with aptX supported\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMM Phono input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalogue line inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB port for service purposes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSPDIF coax and optical inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeaker A, Speaker B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreamp\/Subwoofer out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadphone amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMDC Slots for future upgrades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIR remote\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmartphone Control App\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12V Trigger in\/out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIR in\/out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRS-232 Serial port for control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl4, Crestron, RTI, URC, AMX, Savant, Elan certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-4-12 tablet-fullwidth-fix\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePreamplifier\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-8-12 clearfix\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLine Input, Pre Out\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"clearfix\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHD (20Hz-20kHz)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u0026lt;0.005% at 2V out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSignal\/Noise Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u0026gt;106dB (IHF;
