About the C422
The NAD C422 is a stereo AM/FM RDS tuner released around 2003-2004. It features digital tuning with auto and manual search, a fluorescent frequency display with RDS signal strength and FM stereo indicators, and preset memory selection. The tuner offers excellent sensitivity and low distortion with a MOS-FET RF front end design for noise-free reception. It supports 88 to 108 MHz FM tuning range and MW/AM bands. The unit includes a 12V trigger input for integration with other NAD components and can be controlled via NAD-Link or universal remotes. It is well-regarded for its neutral and disciplined sound quality, with a slightly bright frequency response and low hiss. The tuner measures 435 x 80 x 285 mm, weighs 4 kg, and comes in a silver finish. It is considered a vintage unit but remains a solid choice for audiophiles seeking a quality tuner with RDS functionality.
