PRODUCT STORY

PowerDrive Amplification for Musical Dynamics

The C 316BEE V2 uses NAD’s PowerDrive technology to deliver stable, dynamic performance with a wide range of loudspeakers and music sources. By continuously optimising power delivery, it maintains low distortion whilst providing the current needed for dynamic peaks. The result is sound that feels confident, lively, and controlled across a wide range of listening levels.

Carefully Engineered Phono Performance

A high-quality MM phono stage allows the C 316BEE V2 to extract clarity and balance from vinyl recordings. Accurate RIAA equalisation, low noise, and generous headroom help preserve musical detail and tonal integrity. This thoughtful implementation ensures records are reproduced with warmth, scale, and consistency.

Essential AnalogueConnectivity

With five line-level inputs, a front-panel input for portable devices, and a dedicated headphone output, the C 316BEE V2 provides everything needed for a focused hi-fi system. Bass and treble controls allow subtle adjustment when required, while the defeatable tone circuit offers a more direct signal path for purist listening. The design keeps the experience simple and centred on music.

Compact Design with Proven NAD Engineering

Despite its modest size, the C 316BEE V2 features a robust power supply with a toroidal transformer and discrete output devices. This solid foundation contributes to its relaxed, inviting sound and long-term reliability. Finished in NAD’s understated Classic Series style, it fits easily into any system built around musical enjoyment.
