The NAD C541i is a Compact Disc Player designed for high-fidelity audio playback. It is engineered to deliver a rich and detailed musical experience, incorporating advanced digital audio technologies and user-friendly features.
The primary function of the NAD C541i is to play musical program material from Compact Discs (CDs), CD-R, and CD-RW discs recorded in the 16-bit, 44.1 kHz PCM Compact Disc format. It is not designed to play other disc formats, such as CD-V, DVD, CD-I, CD-ROM, PHOTO CD, or discs containing data or pictures. The player features both analogue (Line Out) and digital (Optical and Coaxial) audio outputs, allowing for flexible integration into various audio systems. It also includes NAD-Link for system control, an IR In port for remote location control, and a 12V Trigger In for remote power switching.
While specific numerical technical specifications (like frequency response, signal-to-noise ratio, etc.) are not explicitly detailed in the provided manual excerpts, several key technological aspects are highlighted:
The NAD C541i offers a comprehensive set of playback and control features, accessible via both the front panel and a wireless remote control.
The wireless remote control duplicates most front panel functions and adds:
The manual includes important safety instructions, warnings about electric shock risk, and precautions regarding power lines and outdoor antenna grounding (if applicable, though the C541i is a CD player, this is general safety information). It emphasizes that servicing should only be performed by qualified service personnel. The laser is a Class 1 product and is safe under normal operating conditions.
