NAD C338

The NAD C338 is a compact, Class D integrated amplifier. One catalog file lists it as a hi-fi receiver. Hard specifications, production years, and the original list price are not documented in the archive. What the record does show is retailer listings, a couple of marketplace appearances, and NAD's claim that the C338 was the first hi-fi amplifier with Chromecast Built-in.

Retailer material describes the C338 as a Class D design with an advanced DAC, on-board streaming, versatile connectivity, and a modular layout intended for future upgrades. NAD also highlighted its highly efficient power supply, which it said gives a noise-free foundation and generous output. The front panel is simple, with BASS EQ and SOURCE controls and antenna connections.

One online catalog listing from early 2021 showed the C338 at about $1,173. A secondhand example later appeared in excellent condition at $625, from an owner who had bought it refurbished for a second system that never got used. The one dealer blurb on record says it quietly changes how you think about hi-fi, with no giant heat sinks and no glowing tubes.
