Our take on the NAD C 359S Stereo Integrated Amplifier

The NAD C 359S is a stereo integrated amplifier rated at 80 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 120 watts into 4 ohms, with low distortion and a high damping factor. It uses NAD's HybridDigital UcD class-D output stage, which runs cool and stays compact. Connectivity includes four digital inputs (two optical, two coaxial), Bluetooth aptX HD, a moving-magnet phono stage, and a headphone jack. Reviewers praise its clean, powerful sound and stable performance into difficult speaker loads, though some note the absence of network streaming and room correction compared with pricier rivals.

About the NAD C 359S Stereo Integrated Amplifier

The NAD C 359S is a stereo integrated amplifier for two-channel hi-fi systems. It uses HybridDigital power amplification, which delivers continuous power into speaker loads with low heat and distortion.

Digital audio is handled by a 32-bit/384kHz ESS Sabre DAC. A built-in MM phono stage with RIAA equalization and infrasonic filtering lets you connect a turntable directly. Bluetooth aptX HD works in both directions, so it can receive audio from a phone or send it to wireless headphones.

The amplifier is MDC2 (Modular Design Construction) ready. A rear slot accepts optional modules, such as BluOS multi-room streaming or Dirac Live room correction, so features can be added without replacing the main chassis.
