Clean, Confident HybridDigital Power (Section 2 of 4)
The C 338 uses HybridDigital amplification to deliver 50 Watts per channel with the clarity and control NAD is known for. This efficient design maintains performance even with dynamic material or challenging speaker loads. The result is a refined, expressive sound that feels larger than the amplifier’s compact footprint suggests.
