"Sonic Performance, Versatility, and an Accessible Price"The NAD D 3045 is everything a modern amplifier should be. It is compact, energy efficient, powerful, silent, high-resolution enabled, and packed with cutting edge features like DSD and MQA playback. NAD’s expertise in both digital and analog engineering is on full display in this flexible and affordable amplifier. "NAD’s D3045 sounds more articulate, nuanced, and impactful than it has any right to for its price,” reports Chris Martens, Hi-Fi+, August 14, 2019. “It’s sound is honestly reminiscent of the qualities we normally associate with far more costly high-end components. Even if you already own a higher-priced reference audio system, you may find the NAD’s combination of sonic performance, versatility, and an accessible price will win it a place in your home. What’s more, the NAD makes an ideal platform on which to build a first serious music system." "Barely more complicated than a light switch, the NAD amp delivers the finely etched detail, dramatic dynamics, and jet-black background silences that characterize the best of hi-res audio in a package that's affordable enough to unite casual listeners and budget-sensitive audiophiles under a single tent," notes Daniel Kumin, Sound&Vision, February 27, 2019 Even Higher FidelityHi-Res is to audio, what HD is to video. It is more lifelike and natural, and a much more enjoyable listening experience. With features like support for MQA music, the D 3045 can faithfully and accurately reproduce the full spectrum of sound encapsulated on the studio master. Until now, music loving consumers have only been able to hear an edited version of the full fidelity, because the delivery systems, be it tape, vinyl, or CD, did not have the capacity to hold all the information contained in the studio-master recording. With hi-res downloads and streaming we can now enjoy exactly the same experience the artist heard in the studio when the recording was first made. This is revolutionary! Yet, 90% of the products on the market today do not have the full capability required to experience this new higher fidelity. Amazing CapabilityEvery input and circuit you need to get the best out of your existing music collection is included, plus features that allow you to experience the sonic benefits of hi-res audio. Especially notable is the Asynchronous USB input for attaching a computer, which allows hi-res streaming using one of the several hi-res programs like Roon, JRiver, and Amarra. Asynchronous operation uses the D 3045’s precision clock (instead of the computer's clock) to reduce jitter to a minimum and make the USB format work ideally for audio. For everyday convenience, NAD has included Bluetooth wireless streaming powered by aptX HD, the latest 24 bit hi-res version of Bluetooth that is being supported by more and more phones and tablets. You can also use its integrated two-way Bluetooth feature and effortlessly stream music that is playing on the amp to any pair of Bluetooth enabled headphones. Or you can plug in your headphones to the built-in headphone jack and enjoy the exceptional performance of NAD's low impedance, high current headphone amplifier. Features You Won’t Find Anywhere ElseLove vinyl? The D 3045 includes NAD’s super accurate, wide dynamic range, moving magnet phono preamp to extract every last morsel of sound from your LPs. If you still enjoy CDs, you will find both analog and digital inputs. The digital inputs allow the use of the advanced hi-res DAC built into the D 3045, or you can even send the sound from your TV to the NAD amplifier and seamlessly control the system using your TV’s remote by taking advantage of the HDMI ARC input. You can even add a subwoofer to the system with the convenient Sub Out jack. Performance and PriceThe NAD D 3045 includes advanced capabilities usually only found in far more expensive components. Hi-Res USB DACs start at about three times the price of the D 3045. High current headphone amplifiers start at the price of the D 3045 and go up from there. Power amps featuring 60 watts-per-channel and with the low distortion and high current capability of the D 3045 are rare at this price. Yet with the NAD 3045, all of these products are wrapped into one compact, energy efficient, and convenient package engineered by one of audio’s most iconic brands. Forty-five years of audio excellence is on full display with this innovative and versatile component. Just add your favorite music source and a great set of speakers to enjoy many years of sonic bliss.

"In conclusion, I do recommend the NAD 3045 as it’s sonic attributes are many, it’s svelte and attractive build are near limitless in domestic application and appreciation. Its feature set is proudly wide and adapting to many lifestyles. It’s inclusion of two-way bluetooth is welcomed, reliable, and sounds damn good. Overall the NAD 3045 offers so much in the way of connectivity and award winning sound, that I can’t at any plateau of neurotically amplifying my own reservations, convince myself to overlook the NAD 3045 for just a few nitpicks." - Eric Shook, avimports.co.za, November 20, 2020 "It has a charming and likeable sonic character aided by excellent timing and a fine sense of weight. The balance is smooth, with plenty of detail across the frequency range, and despite its wealth of connections - both wired and wireless - no compromises are immediately evident." - What Hi-Fi?, July 2020 "It’s a fabulous little amp. Its modest dimensions make it an easy proposition for main and secondary systems alike, and set upright on a big enough expanse of wood or fiberboard, it could even work as the hub of a desktop system." "Its wired and wireless digital inputs provide true hi-fi sound at an affordable price, while its subwoofer outputs, ARC HDMI port, MM phono input, and -- the icing on the cake -- support of MQA provide the kind of flexibility that should satisfy any audiophile. The D 3045 is the cream of the crop of integrated amp-DACs for $1000 and under. If I were shopping in that market, it’s what I’d buy. That it can be had for just $749 is outrageous. What a steal." - Hans Wetzel, SoundStage! Access, October 15, 2019 "NAD’s D3045 sounds more articulate, nuanced, and impactful than it has any right to for its price. It’s sound is honestly reminiscent of the qualities we normally associate with far more costly high-end components.
