NAD C 359S

The NAD C 359S is a stereo integrated amplifier that combines NAD's classic design with modern connectivity: 70 W continuous per channel in Class AB, built-in high-resolution BluOS streaming and HDMI ARC, MM Phono and Bluetooth aptX HD inputs.

Its architecture keeps conversion, processing and amplification stages separate to minimise unwanted interactions, with a high-current, low-noise switching power supply for clean, stable power.

With integrated BluOS it also works as a high-resolution network player (FLAC, MQA, WAV, AIFF up to 192 kHz / 24 bit) and supports multiroom systems with other compatible devices. Its optional high-pass filter makes it easy to add a subwoofer and set up a 2.1 system.

It keeps NAD's classic look, with physical buttons and rotary controls on the front panel plus an IR remote control.
