About the C340
The NAD C340, produced from 1998 to 2001, is a classic integrated stereo amplifier renowned for its clean sound, clarity, tight bass, and dynamic performance. It includes 7 line inputs (with phono stage), two tape loops, pre-out/main-in connections, tone controls (bass ±7dB at 100Hz, treble ±5dB at 10kHz), headphone socket, soft clipping, NAD Link, and full system remote control. All circuitry is discrete with short signal paths and gold-plated sockets. It employs Impedance Sensing Circuit (ISC) topology and PowerDrive for handling difficult speaker loads. Highly regarded in reviews for value and sound quality, it has been discontinued and replaced by models like the C350.
