for the 320BEE


This is just a follow-up for the review I posted last October 18, 2005. NAD's little wonder ( C320 BEE ) never ceases to amaze me. I have tried using several budget(read: cheap speaker wires and interconnect)cables like Kimber's 4PR & Straight Wire's Encore and the amp retained its main sonic attributes of being weighty and punchy with either classical and rock music. Taking the top covering off this little devil revealed a very well layed out circuit board and a substantial toroidal transformer, no wonder it packs a wallop. This Bjorn Erik Edvardsen - designed integrated will certainly become a classic just like its ancestor... the NAD 3020.


Product Weakness: For its $400.00 price tag!?
Product Strengths: Reserves more power than the specified output of 50watts/channel
