The first-ever hi-fi amplifier to have Chromecast built-in, the C 338 allows you to stream and cast music directly from a mobile device or any music streaming app, letting you enjoy your music wirelessly. With Bluetooth</span>^®<span> also natively integrated, the C 338 can wirelessly connect to any smartphone, tablet, or Bluetooth-enabled device within range so you seamlessly stream your favourite music apps or libraries in high-fidelity. Add a turntable using the phono input and experience the warmth of vinyl collections with the room-filling sound of NAD’s Hybrid Digital</span>^™<span> amp technology. Power, volume, source selection, and device settings are all controlled using the intuitive interface of the NAD Remote App for iOS and Android.</span></p> <div style="text-align: left;"><img src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0884/4842/files/C338_IMG_3302_1024x512_e653c883-db99-49a1-be62-d87fd568513c_600x600.jpg?v=1634626644" alt="nad c338 integrated amplifier melbourne hi fi" style="float: none;"></div> <p><span><br></span></p> <div class="excerpt"> <h4>Getting the Basics Right</h4> <p>Built with NAD’s renowned music-first approach to audio architecture and amp design, the C 338 is equipped with the most advanced components commonly found in NAD’s class-leading line of amplifiers. Always starting with the details you can hear and advancing from there, NAD develops low-noise circuitry with the precision and stability to deliver incredible, near-zero distortion sound for the most difficult speakers.</p> <h4>HybridDigital^™<span> </span>Amp Technology</h4> <p>The search for a high-performance Class D solution led NAD to HybridDigital^™, an innovative amplifier technology that uses a variable modulation frequency to bring out the life-like qualities of music, while reducing distortion under every operating condition. This highly optimized design gives phenomenal performance to the C 338 amplifier, both measured and subjective.</p> <h4>Efficient Class D Power</h4> <p>NAD has worked tirelessly to create the best performing Class D amplifiers that are energy efficient and produce beautiful sound—not heat—regardless of basic design principles. Using advanced measurements and data, NAD developed the C 338’s highly efficient power supply with a customised Hypex^®<span> </span>UCD output stage to pump out 50 watts continuously and over 200 watts instantaneously to meet the demands of the most dynamic music. This new design is very linear over a wide bandwidth and provides consistent, noise-free performance for the amplifying stages with near perfect regulation of voltage.</p> </div> <div class="text" style="text-align: start;"> <h4>Always Ready for Streaming</h4> <p>The C 338 has Chromecast built-in so you can cast music, tunes, podcasts, and playlists from your favourite apps on your phone, tablet or laptop to your stereo system. Spotify Connect^®<span> </span>lets you discover millions of songs and stream them directly to your C 338 using the Spotify^®<span> </span>app for a rich, wireless music experience. With the added flexibility of Bluetooth^®, your music streaming possibilities are truly limitless with the C 338.</p> <p><img src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0884/4842/files/Screenshot_2024-06-05_at_3.05.00_PM_600x600.png?v=1717563970" alt="nad c338 integrated amplifier melbourne hi fi" style="float: none;"></p> <ul></ul> </div> <div style="text-align: left;"></div> <h5><span>Specifications</span></h5> <div class="row"> <div class="col-8-12 clearfix"> <h4>Line In, Subwoofer Out</h4> <ul class="clearfix"> <li><strong>THD (20Hz-20kHz)</strong></li> <li>&lt;0.005% at 2V out</li> <li><strong>Signal/Noise Ratio</strong></li> <li>&gt;106dB (IHF; A-weighted, 500mV out, unity gain)</li> <li><strong>Input Impedance (R and C)</strong></li> <li>56 kilohm + 100pF</li> <li><strong>Maximum Input Signal</strong></li> <li>&gt;4.5Vrms (ref. 0.1% THD)</li> <li><strong>Output Impedance</strong></li> <li>Source Z + 200 Ohm</li> <li><strong>Input Sensitivity</strong></li> <li>50mV (100Hz ref. 500mV out, Volume maximum</li> <li><strong>Maximum voltage output – IHF load</strong></li> <li>&gt;4.5V (ref. 0.1% THD)</li> </ul> <h4>Line In, Headphone Out</h4> <ul class="clearfix"> <li><strong>THD (20Hz-20kHz)</strong></li> <li>&lt;0.005% at 1V out</li> <li><strong>Signal/Noise Ratio</strong></li> <li>&gt;105dB (IHF; A-weighted, 32 Ohm loads, ref. 2V out, unity gain)</li> <li><strong>Frequency Response</strong></li> <li>±0.3dB (20Hz-20kHz)</li> <li><strong>Channel Separation</strong></li> <li>&gt;56dB at 1kHz</li> <li><strong>Output Impedance</strong></li> <li>0.5 Ohm</li> </ul> </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="col-4-12 tablet-fullwidth-fix"> <h4>General Specifications</h4> </div> <div class="col-8-12 clearfix"> <h4>Line In, Speaker Out</h4> <ul class="clearfix"> <li><strong>Continuous Output Power into 4 Ohms and 8 Ohms (Stereo)</strong></li> <li>&gt;50W (at rated THD, 20-20kHz, both channels driven)</li> <li><strong>IHF Dynamic Power</strong></li> <li>8 Ohm 80W<br>4 Ohm 150W<br>2 Ohm 210W</li> <li><strong>THD (20Hz-20kHz)</strong></li> <li>&lt;0.03% (250mW to 50W, 8 Ohm and 4 Ohm</li> <li><strong>Signal/Noise Ratio</strong></li> <li>&gt;98dB (A-weighted, 500mV input ref. 1W out in 8 Ohm)</li> <li><strong>Clipping power</strong></li> <li>&gt;60W (at 1kHz 0.1% THD)</li> <li><strong>Peak output current</strong></li> <li>&gt;18A (in 1 Ohm, 1 ms)</li> <li><strong>Damping Factor</strong></li> <li>&gt;300 (ref. 8 Ohm, 20Hz to 6.5kHz)</li> <li><strong>Frequency Response</strong></li> <li>±0.3 dB (20Hz-20kHz)</li> <li><strong>Channel Separation</strong></li> <li>1kHz &gt;75dB<br>10kHz &gt;65dB</li> <li><strong>Input Sensitivity (For 50W in 8 Ohm)</strong></li> <li>Line In: 380mV, Digital In: 18% FS</li> <li><strong>Sample Rate</strong></li> <li>Up to 24 bit/192kHz</li> </ul> <h4>Phono In, Speaker Out</h4> <ul class="clearfix"> <li><strong>THD (20Hz-20kHz) (Stereo)</strong></li> <li>&lt;0.3% at 50W out</li> <li><strong>Signal/Noise Ratio</strong></li> <li>&gt;82dB (200 Ohm source, A-weighted, ref. 500mV out)<br>&gt;76dB (MM cartridge source, IHF A-weighted, ref. 500mV out)</li> <li><strong>Input Sensitivity</strong></li> <li>4.1mV (ref. 50W 1kHz 4 Ohm out, Volume maximum)</li> <li><strong>Frequency Response</strong></li> <li>±0.3dB (20Hz-20kHz)</li> <li><strong>Input Impedance</strong></li> <li>47 kilohm + 100pF</li> <li><strong>Maximum Input Signal</strong></li> <li>&gt;80mVrms (ref. 0.1% THD)</li> </ul> </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="col-4-12 tablet-fullwidth-fix"> <h4>Power Consumption</h4> </div> <div class="col-8-12 clearfix"> <ul> <li><strong>at ECO Standby mode</strong></li> <li>0.4 Watts</li> <li><strong>at Control Standby mode</strong></li> <li>1.8 Watts</li> <li><strong>OFF mode (Power switched OFF)</strong></li> <li>0 Watts</li> </ul> </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="col-4-12 tablet-fullwidth-fix"> <h4>Weight &amp; Dimensions</h4> </div> <div class="col-8-12 clearfix"> <ul class="clearfix"> <li><strong>Gross Dimensions (W x H x D)*</strong></li> <li>435 x 70 x 285mm (17 1/8 x 2 13/16 x 11 1/4)”</li> <li><strong>Net Weight</strong></li> <li>4.85kg (10.7lb)</li> <li><strong>Shipping Weight</strong></li> <li>5.85kg (12.9lb)</li> </ul> </div> </div>
