About the NAD C 315BEE
Here's the perfect little integrated amp for that high-quality audio system in your den, bedroom, or office. The C 315BEE delivers accurate, musical sound in a compact package that's sized just right for smaller spaces. NAD designed this amp with the same principle behind their higher-end components — a no-frills approach that puts the focus squarely on performance, instead of bells and whistles. It boasts a high-current toroidal transformer — usually found only on expensive audiophile gear — and other carefully selected high-quality parts to provide punchy, life-like sound.
This integrated amp offers enough inputs to connect six audio components, plus a handy front-panel minijack for hooking up a portable music player. And the included remote gives you easy control of the amplifier and the other NAD audio components in your system.
