Audiophile-Grade Compact Disc Player | Brisbane HiFi Audio Specialist
The NAD C 589 is a high-performance CD player engineered to extract exceptional resolution, musicality, and spatial detail from physical CD collections.
Built around an ESS ES9039PRO fully balanced DAC implementation, the C 589 combines NAD digital engineering with advanced Dynamic Digital Headroom (DDH) and QRONO d2a time-domain filtering. The result is highly accurate digital-to-analog conversion with excellent channel separation, dynamic resolution, and timing precision.
At Brisbane HiFi, we recommend the NAD C 589 as a reference source component for listeners seeking uncompromised CD playback and flexible analog and digital connectivity across Brisbane, Queensland, and Australia.
