C 565BEE CD Player
> P O S I T I O N I N G
Long sought after as the 'Best Buy' solution for the music lover on a budget, NAD has proven to be a serious contender in the ultra high end of the
market. Our top performing Masters Series has won an impressive number of industry awards — from the coveted EISA award to Stereophile Class A and
Hi-Fi Choice Reference status and Best Buy accolades. These premium products are at the top of the market.
Yet we all aspire to own the best we can afford. The C 565BEE, at the top of NAD's Classic Series range, has performance that is very close to our
vaunted Masters Series M5 CD Player, yet costs half as much.
this is one very serious high end component.

Performance
The C 565BEE applies the very latest in semiconductor
design to make an all new CD Player with performance
that must be heard to be believed. One of the major
shortcomings of CD playback has always been the
relatively low 44.1kHz sampling frequency. The sampling
frequency is how many times the analogue sound wave
is measured or 'sampled' creating a staircase like replica
of the original waveform. This is what is stored on
the CD disc.
Later these digitized waveforms are smoothed out by the
circuitry of the CD player. But if the number of steps
could be made much smaller – twice as many or even
four times as many – the waveform would be much
smoother to begin with and the processing in the CD
player could be simplified and improved. This is exactly
what we have done with the C 565BEE by adding a
Sample Rate Conversion circuit that bumps the 44.1kHz
sampling frequency up to 96kHz or even 192kHz.
This higher sampling rate allowed NAD's engineers to take
full advantage of the latest state-of-the-art DAC (digital
to analogue converter) from Wolfson Microelectronics.
