THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING NAD

The L 54 DVD Receiver is a technologically advanced and highly capable product-yet we have invested great effort in making it simple and easy to use. The L 54 delivers a range of genuinely useful options for stereo listening using powerful digital signal processing and superbly accurate digital-audio circuitry. However, we have also been careful to ensure that the L 54 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-theatre components. As with all our products, NAD’s “Music First” design philosophy guided the L 54’s design, such that it can confidently promise you both state-of-the-art surround home-theatre and audiophile-quality music listening for years to come.
