### **NAD Electronics C 3050 Integrated Amplifier Voted Best Integrated Amplifier by World's Most Prestigious Hi-Fi Press**

AUGUST 15, 2023, TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA - NAD Electronics, the highly regarded manufacturer   
of high-performance audio/video components, announced today that the C 3050 Stereophonic   
Amplifier has won the 2023-2024 EISA Integrated Amplifier award. Expert Imaging and Sound   
Awards, known as EISA, is an association of 60 specialty electronics magazines and websites from   
29 countries. EISA member magazines choose award winners after they review and test thousands   
of products. Award winners are considered the best in their category over the year.   
EISA editors of hi-fi audio publications praise the NAD C 3050 for its future-proofing technology,   
spectacular sound quality, superior streaming options, and multi-room capability – all within a retro inspired amplifier.

“From the outside, the C 3050 pays homage to NAD’s earliest designs with its faithfully executed   
vintage styling, but in all other respects this is a thoroughly modern integrated amp with a do-it-all   
ethos”, says the 2023-2024 EISA Awards Board in an official statement. The statement goes on to   
say, “Plug in NAD’s optional BluOS-D card and the functionality grows to include superior streaming   
options (including app control and multi-room capability), plus Dirac room calibration. And while the   
forward-thinking technology delivered impressive sound quality; you can feast your eyes on the   
C 3050’s large VU meters. What’s that about having your cake and eating it?”

According to Cas Oostvogel, NAD’s Product Manager, “50 years of history and innovation truly meets  
the future of hi-fi through our C 3050 amplifier. The vintage-inspired walnut finish, dual VU meters,   
and push button input selectors brings back old-school components that music lovers once loved,   
while also bringing them back to when they first discovered great sounding audio.” He goes on to say,

“The C 3050 delivers incredible sound capabilities, and thanks to NAD’s MDC2 future-proofing   
technology, C 3050 owners can continue to add new leading-edge capabilities like BluOS’s highresolution multi-room streaming and Dirac Live room correction all within our amplifier.” 

The EISA awards are currently in their 41st year, with their membership including leading audio   
journals from Europe, the Americas, and Asia-Pacific. Award results are widely regarded as one of the   
highest honours in the hi-fi industry. To win an EISA award, products must undergo a robust, rigorous   
and exhaustive judging process in two stages. After intensive testing and audition at the facilities of   
EISA member magazines, each journalist submits a shortlist of the best products in each awards   
category. The second stage takes place at EISA’s annual General Meeting, where a democratic voting   
process establishes a consensus of excellence and determines the winning products.

The C 3050 Stereophonic Amplifier will be available at select premium audio retailers around the   
world. Find out more about the C 3050 on nadelectronics.com.
