Because of the NAD 701’s extensive capability and flexibility, for once an NAD front panel looks busy!
The tuner circuits, developed from the award winning NAD 402, offers the same tine tuning and
sensitivity (in 25 kHz steps) and the 12 FM/l2 AM presets will surely provide you with all your favourite
stations.
The 701’s amplification stage provides 25 watts per channel into 8 ohms and Extended Dynamic Power
permits untroubled peaks of 85 warts into 8 ohms. NAD Soft Clipping, CD, video and phono inputs,
selectable mono and loudness switches all add up to flexibility and high performance, controllable via a
simple remote control.
