Selectable balanced inputs make the<strong> C 298<\/strong> a natural for studio use or connection to High End Preamps and Processors. These inputs include a trim control useful for matching to other components. A line out allows further addition of power on the same channel for additional speakers or subwoofers. Auto-sense with selectable threshold is perfect for automating complex systems or hiding the amp out of sight in a cabinet. We even include a Ground Lug that can be very useful for eliminating ground loops and noise in complex multi-unit systems. Added to all this connectivity is a Bridge Switch that turns the <strong>C 298<\/strong> into an amazingly powerful Monobloc Amplifier. Start with one and add a second <strong>C 298<\/strong> later when you upgrade your speakers.<\/p>\n<h4>Getting the Basics Right<\/h4>\n<p>It is surprising how many seemingly advanced products in the market today often miss many of the most basic requirements for satisfying performance. Low noise circuits, accurate channel balance, proper input and output impedance characteristics, high overload margins and stability with difficult speaker loads. <strong>NAD<\/strong> starts by getting these things precisely right and advances from there. Our line inputs, both Balanced and Single-ended, can accommodate all kinds of analog source components by offering ideal input impedance characteristics with linear ultra-low-noise buffer amplifiers to prevent any sonic degradation caused by inappropriate loading of the source device. These are all details you can hear.<\/p>\n<h4>Sophisticated Power<\/h4>\n<p><strong>NAD<\/strong> has moved away from the old fashioned and very power hungry linear power supplies and Class AB output stages that waste nearly half of the energy consumed producing heat rather than sound. Instead we have developed even better performing circuits based on switch mode power supplies and Class D output stages. Once thought to be inferior to traditional topologies, <strong>NAD\u2019s<\/strong> advanced work in this area has created some of the best performing amplifiers regardless of basic design principle. These new designs are very linear over a wide bandwidth and provide consistent performance into all speaker loads, providing a dramatic advance over previous models.<\/p>\n<p>The generously dimensioned power supply easily allows for 185 watts continuous and over 570 watts instantaneous power for short term musical transients. Innovative Asymmetrical Power-Drive fully utilizes every last watt available with its vast reserves of dynamic power available to accurately reproduce musical transients without distortion or compression. It can operate with any AC mains voltage from 100v to 240v and provides pure DC power to all the various stages of the <strong>C 298<\/strong>. This highly efficient supply also provides near perfect regulation of voltage across a wide range of conditions and provides a solid noise-free foundation for the amplifying stages.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-44835\" src=\"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/NAD-C-298-Stereo-Power-Amplifier-desc.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1290\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/NAD-C-298-Stereo-Power-Amplifier-desc.jpg 1290w, https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/NAD-C-298-Stereo-Power-Amplifier-desc-400x140.jpg 400w, https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/NAD-C-298-Stereo-Power-Amplifier-desc-768x268.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/NAD-C-298-Stereo-Power-Amplifier-desc-430x150.jpg 430w, https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/NAD-C-298-Stereo-Power-Amplifier-desc-700x244.jpg 700w, https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/NAD-C-298-Stereo-Power-Amplifier-desc-150x52.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1290px) 100vw, 1290px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>NAD<\/strong> has introduced some of the most innovative amplifier technology in its nearly 50 year history, starting with the <strong>3020<\/strong> on through such cutting edge models as the <strong>2200<\/strong>, the <strong>208<\/strong>, and the <strong>M2<\/strong>.
