Product Description
High-End Sound, Smart Price—All-in-One Excellence
The NC200INT offers precision engineering and powerful performance—all wrapped in a sleek, 1U chassis at an unbeatable price point. Ideal for listeners who want a complete system upgrade without compromises, it delivers clarity, warmth, and connectivity without overextending your budget.
Designed for real‑world systems, the NC 200INT delivers 110 W x2 into 4 or 8 Ω with a Burr‑Brown PCM1798 DAC (USB up to 24/96, optical/coax up to 24/192), MM/MC phono, and true analog bass management (variable 20–140 Hz high‑pass to mains plus fixed 80 Hz low‑pass and a full‑range sub out). Add Home Theater Bypass, a dedicated headphone amp, tone controls, and a backlit remote, and you’ve got a compact hub that plays nice with any AVR, streamer, or turntable.
* Remote control included.
