NAD electronics announced the launch of two new stereo integrated amplifiers, NAD C 3030 and NAD C 3030S. Inspired by NAD’s iconic designs of the past and the global success of the NAD C 3050 anniversary-edition amplifier, these new models pair vintage aesthetics with modern Hi-Fi performance and connectivity.
The NAD C 3030 and C 3030S build on the visual language reintroduced with the C 3050, translating its heritage-inspired character in more accessible, compact forms with NAD’s Classic Series. Subtle retro cues, including VU meters, a black faceplate, and a classic script NAD logo, reference the original NAD 3030 of the late 1970s, while internal engineering reflects NAD’s contemporary approach to sound quality, reliability, and usability. Their proportions are intentionally closer to the original NAD 3030 than the C 3050, resulting in a compact chassis that fits naturally into modern living spaces, bookshelves, and home interiors.
The C 3030 features 50 watts per channel of amplification and offers HDMI eARC, aptX HD Bluetooth, and a subwoofer output with adjustable high pass filtering to support 2.1 system configurations.
C 3030S adds BluOS high-resolution multi-room streaming. The amplifier offers support for lossless playback up to 24-bit/192kHz and native MQA decoding, while BluOS enables access to more than 20 music streaming services, internet radio, local libraries, and networked storage.
Playback can be controlled via a full-featured app, with the ability to group multiple rooms, share connected sources, and create a seamless whole-home listening experience.
In addition to BluOS streaming, the C 3030S offers a built-in moving magnet phono input, analogue and digital optical inputs, and a bass-managed subwoofer output.
The C 3030 is already available, while the C 3030S will be available in the Spring 2026.
