D3020 V2

The NAD D3020 V2 brings a fresh, modern twist to a respected icon of the audio world. Adapting to today's media sources and utilizing state-of-the-art digital technology, NAD's Director of Advanced Technology, Bjorn Erik Edvardsen, has created a masterpiece that takes the original NAD 3020 to new heights. With a 24/192 high-quality DAC that mixes 8 channels into 2 for enhanced resolution, the D3020 V2 offers the same innovative spirit that made the original 3020 legendary.

Extended Connectivity

The NAD D3020 V2 offers a wide range of inputs for both digital and analog sources. With coaxial and optical inputs, the D3020 V2 can be connected to a variety of digital sources, including CD and DVD players, set-top boxes, media streamers such as AppleTV, and satellite and cable receivers. Analog inputs are also present, including an advanced MM Phono input with high-precision RIAA equalization, an infrasonic distortion filter, high overload margins and extremely low noise. In addition, a PreOut has been added for added flexibility in the output stage.

Power Delivering

Although the output power of 30W per channel may seem modest, the D3020 V2 performs well above its weight class. As with any NAD amp, power is deceptive: a well-designed 30W amp can sound superior to a 100W amp from a lesser brand. The D3020 V2 has a very compact form factor and can still drive difficult speakers to satisfactory levels without adding noise or distortion.

Performance in the Real World

The original NAD 3020 rewrote the rules for amplifiers by focusing on driving real speakers with real music in the real world. The NAD D3020 V2 delivers on this promise through a unique implementation of NAD PowerDrive™, developed by Edvardsen. PowerDrive provides low impedance drive (current) and high dynamic power (voltage) at very low distortion levels. This refinement of PowerDrive, combined with a precision soft clipping circuit, makes the D3020 V2 sound even more powerful than it already is. An innovative Bass EQ circuit helps small speakers sound big without damaging the woofers.

Wireless Streaming with Bluetooth

The NAD D3020 V2 offers the convenience of wireless streaming thanks to its Bluetooth® capability. Stream all your music from a smartphone, tablet or laptop. The D3020 V2 even supports Bluetooth aptX®, which is known for its excellent sound quality and low power consumption compared to Wi-Fi.

Efficient and Durable

The highly efficient design of the D3020 V2 consumes only 20% of the energy required by traditional Hi-Fi amplifiers. This is comparable to switching from a gas-guzzling car to a hybrid vehicle. Power consumption in standby mode is a minimal 0.5W. NAD has focused on new technologies that improve musical performance while using less energy and fewer non-renewable resources in production.
