NAD PowerDrive Circuit: The C 356BEE use NAD’s proprietary PowerDrive amplifier technology that provides high dynamic power and low impedance drive capability. By adding a second high-voltage rail to the amp’s well regulated high-current power supply, the amplifier can nearly double its continuous power on a short term dynamic power basis.

What’s the difference between a c355 and c356bee?

According to Greg Stidsen, NAD’s Director of Product Development, the 80Wpc C356BEE sports refinements and upgrades over its predecessor (the well-regarded C355) that Edvardsen lifted directly from NAD’s Master Series M3 dual-mono integrated amplifier.

What are the tone controls on the C 356bee?

Tone Controls: The C 356BEE stereo integrated amplifier features independent Bass (100Hz) & Treble (10kHz) controls to adjust the tonal balanced of your system. The Tone control does not affect recordings made using the Tape output terminals, but will affect the signal going to the Pre-amp output terminals (Pre Out 1 and Pre Out 2).

Can a C 355bee be used as a subwoofer?

Separate preamp input/line-level output jacks let you use the C 355BEE as an independent power amplifier (or as a preamp, in the unlikely event that the built-in wattage doesn’t produce enough volume for you). If your main stereo speakers don’t supply enough bass to disturb the peace, you can easily add a powered subwoofer.
