NAD C569 CD Player

PURE CD PERFORMANCE

The C 569 uses a proven tray-loading CD mechanism supported by an NXP-based servo system that precisely manages disc reading, including spindle speed, laser focus, and tracking, for consistent playback.

Careful placement of the transport, power supply, and signal circuitry helps isolate the sensitive analogue stage from unwanted interference. Together, these design choices reduce noise and help preserve the subtle musical information contained on every disc.

ADVANCED DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES

The C 569 incorporates NAD’s Dynamic Digital Headroom (DDH) to address distortion caused by inter-sample clipping, a digital artefact that can occur on CDs mastered at high levels.

By restoring headroom in the digital domain, DDH allows dynamic peaks and transients to come through with greater clarity and impact. The result is cleaner, more natural playback, particularly on recordings that might otherwise sound compressed or harsh.

REFINED DIGITAL-TO-ANALOGUE DESIGN

The C 569 pairs Lenbrook Media Group’s QRONO d2a technology with a high-performance ESS ES9039Q2M Sabre DAC to improve timing accuracy and preserve musical detail.

Following conversion, a carefully designed analogue output stage uses selected audio components, dedicated power regulation, and short signal paths to keep noise and interference low. The left and right channels are arranged symmetrically for consistent performance, helping preserve subtle detail, spatial information, and musical dynamics.

MADE FOR ALBUM LISTENING

For many music lovers, listening to a CD is about more than simply pressing play. It is the experience of selecting an album, exploring the artwork and liner notes, and enjoying a recording from beginning to end.

The C 569 is designed to support that experience with intuitive controls, a clear display including CD-text, a smooth and reliable transport mechanism, and an included remote control for convenient operation. Every interaction is designed to keep the focus where it belongs—on the music.

FLEXIBLE SYSTEM INTEGRATION

With both analogue and digital output options, the C 569 integrates easily into a wide range of hi-fi systems. It can be used as a complete source component, taking advantage of its internal ESS Sabre DAC, or as a dedicated transport connected to an external digital-to-analogue converter.

Its compact, understated design fits naturally alongside other NAD Classic Series components, offering the flexibility to complement both existing systems and future upgrades.
