Analogue Sound with Digital Precision

The C 589 features a high-performance digital-to-analogue stage designed to preserve the integrity of every recording. At its core is a fully balanced DAC from ESS, known for low noise, low distortion, and excellent dynamic range. NAD’s careful implementation ensures that the final analogue output retains clarity, tonal depth, and subtle musical detail. The result is natural, transparent playback that brings your CD collection to life.

Precision You Can Hear

Developed by MQA Labs and implemented by NAD, QRONO d2a is a time-domain filtering technology that improves resolution and timing accuracy during digital-to-analogue conversion. By replacing traditional digital filters with a more precise solution, QRONO helps preserve critical timing information in the audio signal. The result is smoother, more lifelike playback with improved imaging and clarity, especially on recordings rich in spatial detail and acoustic nuance.

Built For Reliable Performance

The C 589 features a high-quality disc transport and precision laser pick-up for smooth, accurate playback. Its premium loader offers a fast, responsive feel, while the transport mechanism ensures reliable tracking across a wide range of compact discs. Built with the same mechanical integrity NAD is known for, the C 589 keeps your music playing cleanly and consistently, disc after disc.

Easy Connection With Endless Options

The C 589 offers a full range of output options to accommodate both classic and modern hi-fi setups. For analogue systems, stereo RCA and balanced XLR outputs provide clean signal delivery with low noise and distortion. On the digital side, coaxial, optical, and AES/EBU outputs allow seamless connection to high-end DACs and digital processors. This versatility makes the C 589 an easy fit within virtually any system, whether you're building from scratch or upgrading an existing setup.
