The C 715 DAb CD Receiver is a technologically advanced and highly
capable product-yet we have invested great effort in making it simple
and easy to use. The C 715 delivers a range of genuinely useful options
for stereo listening using powerful digital signal processing and superbly
accurate digital-audio circuitry. however, we have also been careful to
ensure that the C 715 is as musically transparent and spatially accurate
as possible, incorporating much of what we've learned from a quarter-
century's experience designing audio and home-theatre components. As
with all our products, NAD's "Music First"design philosophy guided the
C 715's design, such that it can confidently promise you both state-of-the-
art and audiophile-quality music listening for years to come.
