Why we love it

  • The Legacy of Bjørn Erik Edvardsen (BEE)
  • Direct Descendant of a Legendary Amplifier
  • A Thoughtful Return to Vinyl

Description

The C 316BEE V2 is rooted in NAD’s long-standing heritage. The BEE designation pays tribute to Bjørn Erik Edvardsen, NAD’s legendary engineer, known for his clear philosophy: designing components that prioritize real musicality and emotional engagement rather than purely theoretical performance.

This amplifier is also a direct descendant of the iconic NAD 3020, a product that helped shape the history of high fidelity by making rich, dynamic, and accessible sound available to a wider audience. The C 316BEE V2 continues this tradition by delivering authentic musical performance, staying true to the DNA that has defined NAD’s reputation for decades.

Finally, the integration of a high-quality phono stage reflects the evolution of modern listening habits. Designed to fully embrace the resurgence of vinyl, this precise and low-noise phono stage allows listeners to enjoy their records naturally, without the need for additional equipment, while preserving the original musical intent.
