I have been involved in mid and budget priced hi-fi for many years now and would like to pass on my experiences to you, the reader.
This particular review is for the NAD C521 BEE CD PLAYER. Many of you may be asking "who the hell are NAD?" Well, it is an established british company who design hi-fi in the u.k and have it manufactured in the far east to exacting standards, the end result being very high quality equipment at very reasonable prices.
You can find NAD products at most "proper" hi-fi dealers (just pick up a copy of " WHAT HI-FI" and you will see very many dealers selling the product).
On to the review: i bought my NAD C 521 BEE CD PLAYER ten months ago from HI-FI CONFIDENTIAL in london and paid £180 for it.
I connected it to a NAD C350 amplifier, a YAMAHA KX-580 SE cassette deck and a pair of CASTLE PEMBROKE floorstanding loudspeakers.
Once the CD player was connected, a very easy job( one connects with either r. c.a. plugs or a digital co-axial lead), i listened to what could only be described as stunning sound from the NAD.
The bass was solid and taut and the treble was very sweet with no loss of control. The soundstage was well controlled and in focus, with voices and instruments projected extremely well, the vocals being very realistic. I have tried all kinds of music from rock to pop and classical and have been unable to trip the NAD up.
This is indeed a very fine CD player with a remarkably low price. You even get a remote control included!!!
Go on be different!! Try the NAD.
They have a great reputation for reliability and fine sound which i will not argue with, for good reason: i have used NAD products for many years now and have never had a failure or been disappointed with the sound.

Advantages: the c521bee sounds great with all music theres plenty of warmth and scale the c521bee could shame players costing 3 times as much. Disadvantages: non for the price really
