1. 3100 Integrated Amplifier Date of manufacture Please note that this document contains the text from the original product brochure and some technical statements may now be out of date For most manufacturers the highest quality parts and most highly refined designs are used only in separate audio components in preamplifiers power amplifiers and tuners Integrated amplifiers are usually made to a less exalted standard while all in one stereo receivers are regarded as compromise products suitable only for casual listeners But not at NAD NAD electronics are designed in modular form and many of the same circuits are used in all product categories The 3100 Integrated Amplifier for example combines NAD s robust 2100 Power Amplifier with high quality preamplifier circuitry derived from some of NAD s finest preamplifiers The pre and power amplifier sections of the 3100 are joined by removable external jumpers that allow you to insert external processors such as a surround sound unit or an electronic crossover for bi amping in the signal path The power amplifier section of the 3100 employs all of the NAD innovations described on pages 4 and 5 Like the 2100 Power Amplifier it is conservatively rated at 50 watts channel for sine wave test tones while its Power Envelope circuit produces 200 to 330 watts channel of long term tone burst power for the dynamic waveforms of music Its high current output stage impedance selector and heavy2. into 89 Frequency response Signal noise ratio ref 1W ref rated power THD 20Hz 20kHz Remote NAD Link PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS Dimensions W x H x D Net weight Shipping weight Power consumption 120 240V 50 60Hz 47kQ 100pF 100Q 1000pF 2 5mV ref 0 5V 0 18mV 75dB ref 5mV 75dB ref 0 5mV lt 0 04 0 5dB 50kQ 500pF 20mV 10V 94dB 20Hz 20kHz 0 5dB 6002 Source Z 1kQ 10V 9dB at 10kHz 10dB at 50Hz 3dB at 55Hz 6dB at 36Hz 30B at 12Hz 12dB octave 60W 17dBW 0 03 70W 6dB 200W 23dBW 250W 24dBW 330W 25dBW gt 100 10kQ 600pF 850mV 3Hz 100kHz 0 3dB 100dB 117dB lt 0 03 No No 435 x 106 x 385mm 10 5kg 11 6kg 330VA Minimum power per chnnel 20Hz 20kHz both channels driven with no more than rated distiortion Dimensions are of unit s cabinet without attached feet add up to 18mm for total height Dimension depth excludes terminals sockets controls and buttons NAD Electronics All rights reserved E amp OE
