Flagship Classic Series integrated amplifier

Featuring Masters Series grade HybridDigital nCore amplification, ESS Sabre DAC and MDC2 Modular Design Construction Architecture

NAD Electronics, the highly regarded manufacturer of high-performance audio/video components, takes value and performance to a whole new level. The C 399 Hybrid Digital DAC Amplifier is the clearest expression yet of NAD’s commitment to sonic excellence and lasting value. Employing NAD’s HybridDigital nCore™ amplification, which until now has been available only on Masters Series amplifiers, the C 399 is the new flagship integrated amplifier in NAD’s Classic Series. The C 399’s digital section is built around a 32-bit/384kHz ESS Sabre DAC, the same chip used in NAD’s acclaimed M10 and M33 Masters Series amplifiers. Retail availability is expected in time for the holiday season.

The C 399 is also the first amplifier to incorporate the latest generation of NAD’s Modular Design Construction (MDC) technology: MDC2. MDC2 lets users add optional modules that provide functions such as BluOS Hi-Res multi-room music streaming, Dirac Live room correction, and more.

Grado RS1x

Tri-Wood Oasis

Leading the way for our 4th gen X Drivers, the redesigned Grado RS1x combines maple, hemp, and cocobolo wood into a vivacious and elegant headphone.

• Transducer Type: Dynamic
• Operating Principle: Open Air
• Frequency Response: 12 - 30,000 hz
• SPL 1mW: 99.8 dB
• Nominal Impedance: 38 ohms

A New Harmony.

The Grado RS1x is the first headphone to be built with the larger 50mm X Drivers. Specifically tuned for the tri-wood RS1x, this new speaker design features a more powerful magnetic circuit, a voice coil with decreased effective mass, and a reconfigured diaphragm. Reengineering these components for our 50mm drivers improve efficiency, reduces distortion, and preserves the harmonic integrity of your music.

Grado RS1x - $750

A family favorite, the Grado RS2x has been completely redesigned to bring out the full potential of its maple and hemp wood. The housing’s sleeve and ring are made from maple, while a hemp core keeps everything together. We build with wood for its warm and embracing tonal abilities, and the Grado RS2x is an exceptional evolution to the RS2 line.

Nordost's Vidar 2 Cable Burn-In Service

The Nordost VIDAR 2 is a professional console with multiple top-mounted input and output connections which allow a variety of cables to be burned-in. It will burn-in loudspeaker, analog, digital and tone-arm cables. The unit has a timer function which allows cables to be burned-in for optimum performance.

How the Nordost Vidar works

New cables often have very high levels of electrical charge caused by the production process. In addition, gases are often trapped between the insulation and the conductor during manufacture. This can often result in new cables sounding brittle, bright and lacking detail. These charges must be neutralized if cable is to ever achieve maximum performance.

The Nordost VIDAR 2 uniquely combines three different functions all in one operation:

• It neutralizes charges that build up around the cables and the insulation.
• It provides a very wide band and deep conditioning into the conductor core, which produces changes in the way signals pass through the metal.
• It ultrasonically conditions the surface of the conductors.

Please call us to arrange a time to have your new or used cables burned in. Price per pair of cables - $95
