NAD C340

Solid design and construction

I have had the NAD C340 Audio Amplifier for mor then 10 years, with an Arcam CD player and a Rega Planar (solid glass platter) and B&W speakers and till today I'm very satisfied.Well recommend

NAD C340 for an Audio Amplifier as I have experienced no bad points with it.

Overall a great bit of kit. I quite like the "military" looks as it somehow seems to add to its solid feeling.When paired up with some half decent floor standing speakers, the nad really shines and has plenty of volume for blasting your friends with your latest tunes. Mine is hooked up to a pair of mission m73's, pioneer djm mixer and a pair of technicals and it sounds really good. the only downside is the remote. It is very unresponsive and annoying to use. The volumes are especially bad as you find yourself pushing the buttons harder and harder while trying to aim it exactly at the remote sensor. This does get a bit annoying but throw it in the bin and after a couple of weeks you forget it even existed.

I have had the NAD C340 Audio Amplifier for 5 years, and it still sounds clean and sweet. It packs plenty of upper mid punch, and will sing all day without any fuss. It hooks up to my Pioneer 812 receiver in a second system without complaint, and drives my Tannoy R1S with total control.

If I were to ever replace it, it would be with another higher spec NAD.

I chose this amp above the Arcam Alpha 7 for its incedible detailed sound. The remote control is a bit insensitive on volume control though. It also links to my NAD 524 CD player so I can use one control for both.
