Our Product Research Team
At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere.
That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box,
verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs.
We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices.

Features
Soft Clipping: NAD's Soft Clipping circuit gently limits the
output of the C 725BEE to minimize audible distortion when the amplifier is
over-driven. While Soft Clipping can be left on at all times to reduce the
likelihood of audible distortion from excessive volume settings, you can also
turn the circuit off for critical listening if you prefer.
Pre-out/Main-in Loop: Factory jumpers connect the main
amplifier input to the full range preamp outputs. This offers the flexibility of
inserting an equalizer, surround processor (when using multiple amps), or
another type of processor between the two stages.
Tone Defeat: Bass and treble are adjusted using the rotary
knobs on the front panel. The Tone Defeat feature bypasses these controls and
is engaged with a button on the front panel or the remote.
Tuner: The AM/FM tuner can store up to 40 AM or FM presets.
You can assign a name to each preset, up to 12 characters. The tuner also
features RDS (Radio Data System); a service used by some radio stations to
transmit data other than the audio signal (program type, text information,
traffic announcements, etc).
Record Out/Zone 2: The stereo RCA line level outputs can be
used as a signal for a recording component (tape, CD, etc) or a second zone. The
source is selected independently of the main source and is not effected by the
volume control. The included ZR 5 second zone remote controls the zone 2 output.
Sleep Timer: The sleep timer turns the unit off after a delay
of 15 to 90 minutes (adjustable in 15 minute intervals).
Remote Control: The SR 8 wireless remote will control the C
725BEE and NAD CD players.
Front Input: A 3.5mm mini-jack input on the front panel is
labeled MP (Media Player); there is also an RCA MP input on to rear panel which
is automatically disconnected when the front panel input is used.
Connections
Rear Panel:
- Speakers: the speaker binding posts will accept single
banana plugs, pin connectors, spade lugs up to 0.475" wide, and bare wire up
to 12 gauge; there are four speaker outputs, A (left and right) and B (left
and right)
- Inputs: stereo RCA input jacks for MP (Media Player),
CD, Disc, Aux, and Tape
