HybridDigital Power with Musical Precision (Section 1 of 4)
The C 368 delivers 80 Watts per channel of clean, stable HybridDigital amplification into 8 or 4 ohms. Its low-noise design preserves subtle textures while maintaining firm control over dynamic passages, revealing more of what makes your favourite recordings come alive. Whether it’s the sweeping energy of orchestral music or the tight, rhythmic drive of electronica, the C 368 brings a natural, confident musicality to every track.When bridged in combination with the NAD C 268 Power Amplifier, the C 368 forms a powerful 2 x 300W system for more demanding loudspeakers and larger rooms.

Modular Design for Added Capability (Section 2 of 4)
With NAD’s original MDC architecture, the C 368 can be expanded with optional modules to suit changing system needs. Add BluOS for hi-res network streaming, HDMI switching for connected entertainment setups, or USB/DSD playback for computer-based audio sources. This flexibility allows the C 368 to fit comfortably into both simple and evolving hi-fi systems.

Versatile Connectivity for Modern and Traditional Sources (Section 3 of 4)
Whether you’re connecting digital components, a turntable, or classic analogue gear, the C 368 offers the inputs needed for a complete hi-fi system. A high-performance DAC supports clean digital playback, while the MM phono stage provides accurate, low-noise vinyl reproduction. Preamp, subwoofer, and Speaker A/B outputs make system expansion simple.
