Unit price  per 

Keep CD playback at the centre of your listening routine with the NAD C 589. A dedicated disc transport and modern digital processing support use as a complete player or as a source for an external DAC.

Key Features

  • QRONO d2a processing – this MQA Labs technology refines digital timing and reconstruction for better spatial detail, transient accuracy and musical flow.
  • Precision disc loader and laser pick-up – smooth, quiet operation and stable tracking, including with older or well-played discs.
  • Low-noise DAC stage – the conversion stage is designed to keep fine detail while holding noise and distortion down.
  • Balanced and RCA analogue outputs – connect directly to an integrated amplifier or preamplifier, with XLR for longer or balanced runs.
  • Use it as a CD transport – AES/EBU, coaxial and optical outputs feed an external DAC if you already own one.
  • Large CD Text display – artist and track names are readable from across the room.

Good to Know

A remote control is included, so you can skip tracks from your listening chair. If your amplifier has balanced inputs, the XLR outputs are the natural choice; otherwise the RCA pair covers any conventional stereo system.
