NAD has an enviable reputation for creating great sounding products at very affordable prices and nowhere is this more evident than in NAD CD players. NAD's veteran engineers know exactly where to spend a little extra money for a better quality part to get the best sound out of the Compact Disc.
CD players use mechanical, digital, and analog technology to produce sound, and all three forms of engineering greatly affect the final result and require careful design and engineering. A solid mechanical foundation is essential to reduce external vibration and provide accurate location of the CD drive mechanism. This allows for smooth operation and minimal tracking errors. Heavy gauge steel and non-resonant plastic moldings are carefully designed to provide optimal results.
The transport is mounted on reinforced steel rails and more than 30 fasteners are used to lock the assembly and maintain precise dimensional integrity. Precise clocking of the digital data stream allows the Wolfson 24-bit DAC to provide precise linearity for conversion of PCM data to analog waveform. Audio OP Amps dampen the output without adding noise or distortion to the music.
Multi-layer PCBs using surface mount components allow for improved circuit design with very short signal paths. Powering these elements is a custom designed active power supply that provides multiple regulated voltages for transport, digital circuits, analog circuits, and control and display circuits. The result of this careful engineering is a sound that is both detailed and natural, with dramatic dynamic contrasts.
