THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING NAD.

The C 545BEE CD Player is a technologically advanced and highly capable

product — yet we have invested great eort in making it simple and easy

to use. We have been careful to ensure that the C 545BEE is as musically

transparent and spatially accurate as possible, incorporating much of what

we’ve learned from a quarter-century’s experience designing audio and

home-theater components. As with all our products, NAD’s “Music First”

design philosophy guided the C 545BEE’s design in such a way that it can

condently promise you state-of-the-art audiophile-quality music listening

for years to come.

We encourage you to take a few minutes now to read right through this

manual. Investing a little time here at the outset might save you a good

deal of time later, and is by far the best way to ensure that you make the

most of your investment in the C 545BEE.

One more thing: We urge you to register your C 545BEE ownership on the

NAD Worldwide Web site:
