NAD C446 Leaflet
In typical NAD fashion, we designed the C 446 Digital Media Tuner as a very uncommon music player—a gateway to
your digital music sources and to the world’s best radio. Beneath the classic NAD chassis of the C 446 lays a uniquely
powerful digital media player with Internet radio, FM/AM and DAB/DAB+ (where available). Included in its uncommon
bag of tricks is the ability to stream your music collection from multiple networked storage devices using DLNA and
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) standards. Other great features include USB playback, Wi-Fi, an easy-to-use Internet
radio portal and support for cloud music services, such as Last.fm.
