NAD C715 User manual
NAD has a worldwide reputation for producing some of the very best performing high fidelity musical
equipment available in today’s market. Our undaunted insistence on musical authenticity has gained the
appreciation of serious music lovers ever since NAD started in 1972. But unlike the vast majority of
“audiophile approved” hi-fi equipment, NAD has always kept the price reasonable. While not the lowest price
in the market, NAD has found that by applying its vast knowledge and experience and by using premium
parts in key areas, we can achieve very high levels of performance for just a small cost increment above the
mediocre performing mass market fare.
CONVENIENCE
The C715 combines all your favorite music sources into one very compact box. A sensitive high performance
FM/AM tuner and a full function CD Player are included. Connections for adding extra devices are available both
on the front panel for portable devices and the rear panel for permanently installed ancillaries. The front panel
USB port allows you to transfer music files from your C715 to any storage device or digital music player with a
USB port. These USB devices can also serve as a source for play-back on the C715. PC’s, MP3 Players and USB
Memory Drives can be easily interfaced to the C715.
All functions are available remotely using the supplied remote control. By combining all your music sources
into one control system, it is easy to enjoy your music while using just one remote handset. You can also set
the C715 to turn on or off at a preset time, making it easy to wake up or fall asleep to music.
Everything you need, except the loudspeakers, is included. Why don’t we include the speakers? Very simply,
the speakers should be matched to your room. The best location, the physical size and your personal taste
in music should all be considered when choosing a loudspeaker. Your NAD specialist can help you choose a

PERFORMANCE
Despite its compact size, the C715 is capable of high levels of
performance. While not as powerful as our full size components,
there is plenty of clean low distortion power on tap for driving high
fidelity loudspeakers to lifelike levels in the smaller rooms for which
acompactunitisdesirable.TheRadioandCDPlayeroffersimilar
levels of performance to our full size components.
STYLE
The C715 offers the same understated gimmick-free styling of
our Classic Series. Designed using the Bauhaus School’s ideal of
“form follows function” this solid form blends seamlessly into any
décor without calling undue attention to itself. Smoothly operating
controls and high levels of fit and finish exude the quality of a
precision electronic instrument.
VALUE
Shrinking size not only saves space, it saves money too. Compared
to NAD’s separate components the C715 represents an
astounding value. The ability to drive the high performance
speakers chosen to meet your musical tastes, and even a powered
subwoofer if you wish, make the C715 the cornerstone of a highly
satisfying music system. Combine this with its small footprint and
many premium features and you have the ideal music system for
a small room, office or apartment.
