See what Sound Advice discovered when they put the C 589 to the test.
What happens when a reviewer takes a close listen to the NAD C 589? For Sound Advice, the answer comes down to how naturally it lets the character of each recording come through.Reviewer Ed Selley praised the C 589 as “outstandingly natural,” with an approach that stays true to the recording.
“Voices and instruments are delivered with a tangibility and vibrancy that has you listening through the NAD, rather than to it.”​The review also explores how NAD Dynamic Digital Headroom, QRONO d2a and the C 589’s fully balanced design contribute to its performance, reinforcing the value of a CD player engineered with a singular focus on getting more from every disc.
