NAD's vintage-inspired C 3030 integrated amp takes what made the C 3050 great and strips it down to its essentials: clean power, vintage looks, VU meters. The C 3030 delivers 50 watts per channel, while the C 3030S version adds a built-in BluOS Wi-Fi streaming module.

Though the C 3030 looks like a vintage piece of audio gear your dad might have owned in high school, it's modern under the hood. It delivers 50 dynamic watts per channel using NAD's HybridDigital Class D amplifier, while a high-res DAC decodes high-res streaming music signals. An array of digital and analog connections lets you connect digital and analog sources, including an HDMI eARC input for your TV. There's a solid built-in phono stage for your turntable, plus a useful 80Hz high-pass filter for your left & right speakers.
It looks great, too, and one feature of a vintage design is you get lots of knobs and buttons for a more tactile listening experience. If you prefer form to follow function with your audio gear, the C 3030 is worth a look.
