The Phono input has a three-position load\/cartridge selector switch. MM is for moving magnet cartridges. It provides a 47k ohm load and the appropriate gain for all MM cartridges. This is the most common cartridge type. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eMC 100 ohm is for most moving coil cartridges.

This superior design allows for an extremely high slew rate preventing odd order distortions which are responsible for listening fatigue. The virtually instantaneous response to musical dynamics doesn’t raise the noise floor or degrade the s\/n ratio like typical headphone amps. The headphone amp circuit was also designed with a low 10 ohms output impedance and high gain to drive headphones rated up to 600 ohms. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe headphone jack accepts a 1\/8” (3.5mm) stereo mini plug.

The two unbalanced and one balanced subwoofer outputs all carry the same mono signal. You can select whether the mono signal is full range or crossed over according to the frequency you select for the Low Pass crossover. The Balanced XLR Sub Output has the same signal as either Sub 1 or 2 Output RCA jack. Balanced has 6dB higher gain. Both RCA 1 \u0026amp; 2 outputs and the XLR output can be connected at the same time. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eIf you have two subwoofers and want them to operate in stereo you can connect them to the Left and Right Main Output jacks instead of to the Sub Output jacks which are mono. In this case you would need to set the High Pass crossover switch to Off. With this configuration the front panel Sub Level control does not function. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eHigh-Pass and Low-Pass Crossovers\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe HINT 6 is equipped with adjustable low-pass and high-pass crossovers. Crossovers are filters that allow certain frequencies to pass while blocking other frequencies. A low pass filter permits only low frequencies to pass and blocks high frequencies. A high pass filter permits only high frequencies to pass and blocks low frequencies. 80 Hz is the best starting frequency for both the High Pass and Low Pass crossovers if you are using a subwoofer and are not certain where to set the crossover frequency. If you are not using a subwoofer, set the HINT 6 Main Output Crossover switch to its Off position. The crossover settings affect both RCA and XLR Main Outputs. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe Low Pass crossover allows only low frequencies to be output from the HINT 6 Sub Output jacks. If your subwoofer has a built-in crossover that cannot be switched off, set it to its highest frequency to minimize the negative effects on bass response from filtering in the HINT 6 and again in the subwoofer. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe HINT 6 High Pass Crossover for the Main Outputs (both XLR and RCA) allows you to block low frequencies from going to your main L and R speakers. This can be particularly useful if you are using small speakers (typically with woofers of 6.5”\/165mm or smaller) and you have a subwoofer. The most common settings are between 50 Hz and 80 Hz. If you are not using a subwoofer you will get better results by turning the HINT 6 High Pass Crossover off or setting it below 40Hz. If you want your L and R speakers to operate full range with no frequencies blocked set the High Pass crossover switch to its Off position. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eTheater Bypass \/ Amp Input\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe HINT 6’s Bypass\/Amp input makes it suitable for both the highest quality stereo reproduction and powering the L and R channels in a surround sound system. This unique feature benefits your system in several ways. It will improve the performance of your left and right speakers in a surround sound system because the power amp built into the HINT 6 is superior to any surround sound receiver’s amp. This will also relieve your AV receiver of the burden of driving the left and right speakers so that more power is available to drive the center and surround channels. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThis feature also enables your subwoofer(s) to operate with stereo sources and the sub channel(s) in your surround sound system. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe HINT 6 Theater Bypass function routes the incoming L and R (front) channels from your surround receiver (processor) L and R Preamp Output jacks directly to the HINT 6’s power amp stage, bypassing the preamp stage and all controls. The HINT 6 functions as a pure standalone power amplifier when its Bypass input is used. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eYour surround processor’s or AV receiver’s sub out jack(s) are routed from the HINT 6 Bypass Sub In jacks directly to its Sub Output jacks. When you select the HINT 6 Bypass input, its preamp circuits and controls are entirely out of the signal path. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eYour surround sound receiver volume control and bass management settings are preserved when you are listening to surround sound with the left, right and subwoofer channels routed through the HINT 6. Please see the owner’s manual for your surround sound receiver to set and calibrate speaker levels, distance and bass management. After adding the HINT 6 to an existing surround sound system you should recalibrate your system with the calibration microphone that’s typically included with surround sound receivers. Don’t forget that the volume control on the HINT 6 will not work when the Bypass Input is selected. Use the volume control on your surround sound receiver (or processor). \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Parasound","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":45980614918317,"sku":"NEW-PAHAHINT6-SIL","price":3100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Used","offer_id":45980614951085,"sku":"USED-PAHAHINT6-SIL","price":3100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/3708\/1773\/files\/PAHAHINT6_SIL_3QT-Large__45834.1724463644.1280.1280.jpg?v=1778095599"},{"product_id":"marantz-mm8077-7-channel-power-amplifier-new","title":"Marantz MM8077 7-Channel Power Amplifier - New","description":"\u003ch3\u003e\"Recommended Component\" 2013 -\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eStereophile\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor The Ultimate Music And Movie Surround Sound Experience\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eDesigned for the ultimate music and movie surround sound experience, the Marantz MM8077 7-channel power amplifier delivers impressive levels of power and detail.

Three things changed. The digital-to-analog stage was redesigned for wider dynamic range and lower noise. A moving-magnet phono input was added for turntable owners. And Dirac Live room correction became an option through a separately purchased license.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe same compact aluminum body and 5-inch color display carry over. So does the HybridDigital UcD output stage. If you owned the original C 700, the V2 is the same idea, finished better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy does it matter? How does it improve your listening?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStreaming-amp combinations have to do a lot. Decode hi-res files, drive speakers cleanly, switch sources, sound musical. The C 700 V2 puts most of the work inside one well-engineered box, so the signal path stays short and the noise floor stays low.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe headline number is 80 watts per channel continuous into both 8 and 4 ohms — driven cleanly to under 0.04% distortion. Short-burst dynamic power reaches 100 W into 8 ohms and 125 W into 4 ohms, which helps the amp stay composed through musical peaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe digital side handles streams up to 24-bit \/ 192 kHz PCM with MQA decoding and rendering. The refined digital-to-analog stage in the V2 brings wider dynamic range and accurate imaging across all sources — streaming, optical, coaxial, HDMI eARC, and the new phono input.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's different about how it's built?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HybridDigital UcD output stage is NAD's pairing of an analog preamp circuit with a Class D power module developed in collaboration with Bruno Putzeys. UcD (Universal Class D) was an early modern Class D topology designed to keep distortion low and behavior predictable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is high efficiency — the amp runs cool and stays small — combined with low measurable noise. Damping factor is over 90 across the audible range, meaning the C 700 V2 keeps tight control of the speakers it drives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe phono input is moving-magnet only. NAD has designed it with accurate RIAA equalization (the standard EQ curve every vinyl record is cut to) so an MM cartridge plugs straight in. Moving-coil cartridges need an external phono stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHDMI eARC connects the C 700 V2 to a compatible TV with a single cable. The TV remote can then control volume, so TV listening doesn't require a separate remote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is this best for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You want a complete music system in one box — just add speakers and you're done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You stream music as your main source — Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz, Amazon Music, Apple AirPlay, internet radio, or files on a NAS or USB drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You own a turntable with a moving-magnet cartridge and want to plug it straight in without buying an outboard phono stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You want clean TV audio through your stereo speakers via a single HDMI eARC cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You're building a multi-room BluOS system — or might want to later — and want one BluOS node to play, control, and coordinate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You care about room correction and would like the option to add Dirac Live down the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does it connect to your system?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnalog: one moving-magnet phono input plus a stereo line-level RCA input.

The C 700 V2 has the streaming player, DAC, preamp, and power amp built in. If you have a turntable, plug it into the MM phono input. If you have a TV, plug it into the HDMI eARC port. That's it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the C 700 V2 a good match for my speakers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatching depends on power output, speaker sensitivity, and impedance — and the right answer depends on your specific speakers and room. The C 700 V2's 80 W continuous (with strong dynamic headroom) suits a wide range of bookshelf and compact floorstanders. Call us at \u003ca href=\"tel:+18009420220\"\u003e800-942-0220\u003c\/a\u003e and we'll help you dial it in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the differences between Class A, Class A\/B, and Class D amplifiers? Which one is this?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C 700 V2 uses HybridDigital UcD — a Class D output stage paired with NAD's analog preamp circuitry. Class A runs the output transistors fully on (clean, but hot and inefficient). Class A\/B blends both modes — the traditional analog approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClass D switches the output transistors rapidly. The benefit is high efficiency and low heat. NAD's UcD design (developed with Bruno Putzeys) is a refined modern Class D used across NAD's HybridDigital amps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is BluOS, exactly?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBluOS is NAD's streaming platform (shared with Bluesound). It's a free Controller app on iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows. The app browses your library and 20+ streaming services, plays music to any BluOS device on your network, groups rooms together, and supports high-resolution audio up to 24-bit \/ 192 kHz with MQA decoding. The C 700 V2 has BluOS built in — no outboard streamer needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is Dirac Live, and how does it work with the C 700 V2?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDirac Live is room correction software. It uses a calibrated microphone to measure how your room shapes the sound from your speakers, then applies a correction profile to flatten the response. The C 700 V2 is Dirac Live Ready — buy a Dirac license (from Dirac) and a calibrated USB microphone, and you can store up to five profiles on the amp. Without the license, the C 700 V2 still works as a complete streaming amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this have a built-in phono stage?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — new for the V2. The C 700 V2 has a moving-magnet (MM) phono input. That covers most entry-level and mid-range turntables. If your cartridge is moving-coil (MC), you'll need an external phono stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this compare to the next NAD model up?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C 399 is a much larger integrated amplifier with twice the power, dual MDC2 slots for future expansion, and more analog\/digital inputs. The C 700 V2 trades that for a one-box streaming experience in a much smaller chassis. If you want the streaming brain built in and the small footprint, this is the model. If you want more power and modular expansion, look at the C 399. Call us and we'll help you choose the right tier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it for home theater?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C 700 V2 connects to a TV via HDMI eARC for clean two-channel TV sound. It also supports BluOS-enabled surround sound configurations — adding compatible BluOS speakers as wireless rears, plus a sub, lets you build up to a 4.1-channel system with Dolby Digital decoding. That's lighter than a full AV receiver setup, but more capable than stereo alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference between the original C 700 and the C 700 V2?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe V2 adds a moving-magnet phono input, refines the digital-to-analog stage for wider dynamic range and lower noise, and adds Dirac Live Ready support (the original did not run Dirac Live). The aluminum body, 5-inch display, HybridDigital UcD amplifier, and BluOS streaming brain carry over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNAD C 700 V2 BluOS Streaming Amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6.5' AC power cord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBC1 remote control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 AAA batteries (for BC1 remote)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwner's manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick Setup Guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImportant Safety Instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty Information\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluesound Brochure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Audio Advisor?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ec-titlebox-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/1f3b5.svg\" alt=\"music note emoji\" width=\"20\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e40+ Years of Expertise\u003c\/strong\u003e — Since 1981, we've helped over a million music lovers find the right gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/1f504.svg\" alt=\"repeat emoji\" width=\"20\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e60-Day Money-Back Guarantee\u003c\/strong\u003e — Take your time.

A preamplifier selects your source and controls volume; a power amplifier takes that signal and delivers the watts that drive your speakers. The Bi-200 does both, and it does so in an unusually direct way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBryston is remarkably candid about what the Bi-200 is: it is, in their own words, “literally constructed from the Bryston BP-19 Preamplifier and 3B Cubed power amplifier united in a single chassis.” Two complete, separately developed components share one enclosure. The only thing the preamplifier and power amplifier sections have in common is the power cable entering the chassis. Everything else — transformers, power supplies, circuit boards — is fully independent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis approach has a practical payoff. Buying the BP-19 preamplifier and 3B Cubed separately costs around $11,190. The Bi-200 with MM\/MC phono costs $10,245 — and eliminates the need for a set of interconnects between them. You get the same engineering in a smaller footprint at a lower price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bi-200 is a \u003cstrong\u003eClass A\/B\u003c\/strong\u003e design. The output stage operates in Class A — the most linear, lowest-distortion mode — for the first portion of its power output, then transitions to Class B for higher demands. Most listening happens in the Class A region. The power stage delivers \u003cstrong\u003e200 watts per channel into 8-ohm speakers\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003e300 watts per channel into 4-ohm loads\u003c\/strong\u003e. That is genuine, high-current output that can drive a very wide range of speakers, including demanding low-sensitivity designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets the Bi-200 apart within Bryston’s own lineup is that it’s the first Bryston integrated amplifier to feature a \u003cstrong\u003efully balanced preamplifier section\u003c\/strong\u003e. Earlier Bryston integrateds offered balanced inputs on the power amp side but used unbalanced signal paths in the preamp. The Bi-200’s preamp is balanced end-to-end — from the XLR inputs through the internal connection to the power stage and out the balanced pre-outputs. This tighter, more noise-resistant signal path allows the class-A preamp section to reach a measured THD figure of below 0.0006%. That’s extraordinarily low for a preamp at any price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the standalone 3B Cubed, the power stage employs Bryston’s \u003cstrong\u003epatented Salomie input circuit\u003c\/strong\u003e — 12 active devices arranged to trap and eliminate distortion and radio-frequency interference before it can enter the signal path. According to Bryston, this circuit achieves less than 0.001% distortion, the lowest measured figure of any amplifier they have ever produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amplifier is convection cooled — no fans, no noise. A \u003cstrong\u003eSoftStart microprocessor\u003c\/strong\u003e brings it online gradually at power-up to prevent tripping your household breaker. The volume control is digitally managed but fully analog in signal path: a rotary encoder adjusts level in 2, 1, and 0.5 dB steps (finer steps at lower volumes), and a compact OLED display shows the current level and input selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis version includes Bryston’s optional \u003cstrong\u003eMM\/MC phono module with 20 dB MC step-up gain\u003c\/strong\u003e. The module uses a moving-coil step-up transformer and accepts cartridges with outputs as low as 0.1 mV. Gain is user-selectable between 20 dB and 26 dB via internal switches.

Add a pair of speakers, speaker cables, and your source components (a turntable, streamer, CD player, or DAC with line-level analog outputs) and you’re ready. This version already includes the MM\/MC phono stage, so no separate phono preamp is needed for a turntable.

But the right match also depends on your room, your listening levels, and your specific speakers’ sensitivity and impedance curves.

Most listening happens entirely within the Class A region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass D\u003c\/strong\u003e amplifiers use high-speed switching to achieve very high efficiency and run very cool. Modern Class D designs from quality manufacturers have become highly competitive, though the topology differs fundamentally from Class A\/B.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this version include a phono stage, and what cartridges does it work with?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — this SKU includes Bryston’s MM\/MC phono module with a moving-coil step-up transformer. The module handles both MM and MC cartridges. For MM cartridges, gain is 41 dB at 1 kHz. For MC cartridges, gain is user-selectable between 20 dB and 26 dB via internal switches: use 20 dB for cartridges outputting 0.4 mV or higher, and 26 dB for cartridges outputting 0.1–0.2 mV. Note that the gain setting is an internal adjustment, not a front-panel control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Bi-200 compare to buying the BP-19 and 3B Cubed separately?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BP-19 preamplifier lists at $5,195 and the 3B Cubed power amplifier at $5,995 — a combined price of $11,190 before interconnects. The Bi-200 with MM\/MC phono is $10,245 and eliminates the need for a set of interconnects between them. The circuitry inside is, by Bryston’s own account, identical to the two separate components. If you need the flexibility to upgrade or swap the preamp and power amp independently, the separates route makes sense. If you want the same engineering in a single box that costs less and takes up less space, the Bi-200 is the more practical choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use the Bi-200 with a subwoofer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The Bi-200 provides both balanced XLR and single-ended RCA pre-outputs, selectable between fixed and variable level. Either output can drive a powered subwoofer’s line-level input.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Bi-200 good for home theater use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, with one important caveat: the Bi-200 is a pure analog component with no digital inputs and no HDMI. If your surround processor has analog line-level outputs, you can connect it to one of the Bi-200’s RCA or XLR inputs. The DC trigger output and RS232\/Ethernet control make it easy to integrate into a home automation system. For a dedicated two-channel music room that doubles as a movie room, it’s an excellent choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the Bi-200’s warranty, and is it transferable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBryston covers the Bi-200 with a 20-year warranty on parts and labor for analog electronics. The warranty is transferable to subsequent owners with the original bill of sale from an authorized Bryston dealer. Keep your original purchase receipt, or register through bryston.com.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the Bi-200 run hot?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarm, not hot. It’s fully convection cooled with no fans, so the chassis acts as a heatsink. Under normal listening conditions it will be warm to the touch on the top and sides. Give it a few inches of clearance above and on the sides, and don’t stack anything directly on top of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat’s in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBryston Bi-200 Integrated Amplifier — 17” faceplate, with MM\/MC (20 dB) phono module installed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBryston BR-4 remote control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetachable IEC AC power cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwner’s manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty and registration information\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePacking contents should be confirmed with Bryston or Audio Advisor before publishing.

The M33 V2 already includes everything else — and where it stops short, two MDC2 expansion slots let you add capability later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMasters-Tier Everything in One Box — Why the M33 V2 Exists\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe M33 V2 takes NAD's design philosophy to its furthest reach: combine reference-grade engineering across every stage of the audio path — amplifier, DAC, ADC, phono, streamer, room correction — and deliver them in one box. NAD's brief is rooted in modern neuroscience: humans can perceive timing differences between sounds down to seven microseconds. The V2's psychoacoustically tuned signal path, MQA Labs FOQUS technology, and upgraded ESS conversion target that timing precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy does it matter? How does it improve your listening?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe headline number is 200 watts per channel continuous into both 8 ohms and 4 ohms — conservatively rated, with dynamic peaks to 300 W into 8 Ω and 550 W into 4 Ω. That's flagship-tier headroom for any speaker in NAD's recommended pairings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ESS Sabre ES9039PRO is ESS Technology's current top-tier DAC chip — a meaningful step up from the ES9028 used in NAD's earlier Masters Series amps and the Classic Series C 389 \/ C 399. It supports hi-res playback well beyond what current streaming services deliver, with very low measured noise and very high linearity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDirac Live Limited Bandwidth comes pre-loaded with the included calibration microphone. Dirac Live corrects timing and frequency response problems caused by your room's acoustics — standing waves, reflections, bass null points. The M33 V2 also supports the optional Dirac Live Bass Control license, which adds dual-subwoofer integration with independent calibration of each sub for the smoothest possible low end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor listeners building a serious system: the M33 V2 can be bridged with a second NAD M23 V2 power amplifier for 700 W per channel mono — a configuration that handles the most demanding speakers and largest rooms without breaking a sweat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's different about how it's built?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amplifier section uses second-generation Purifi Eigentakt modules — the latest Class D modules from Bruno Putzeys' team at Purifi Audio, manufactured by NAD under license. Eigentakt's distinguishing trait is load-invariance: frequency response stays flat regardless of speaker load. The second-generation modules further reduce distortion and improve linearity compared with the original M33.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DAC is the ESS Sabre ES9039PRO — a 32-bit, 8-channel DAC chip running in stereo mode. ESS designed it specifically for high-end audio applications, with proprietary technologies for noise shaping and clock jitter rejection. The M33 V2 pairs it with a next-generation ESS ADC for analog source conversion — a step many flagship amplifiers skip but that matters when running a turntable into a digital signal path with room correction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNAD applies two MQA Labs technologies to the timing-critical parts of the signal chain: FOQUS (deblurs analog filters in the converters) and QRONO (improves timing precision in PCM conversion). These work with the upgraded ESS DAC and ADC to reduce time smear — the small timing errors that blur transient detail and spatial cues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MM\/MC phono stage is rated to compete with stand-alone units: SNR over 92 dB on MM and over 76 dB on MC, with THD+N below 0.003% on MM. An infrasonic filter suppresses subsonic noise from records without compromising bass response. RIAA equalization accuracy is ±0.2 dB across the audio band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo MDC2 expansion slots on the back let the M33 V2 evolve with new technologies — MDC2's two-way architecture means future modules can integrate cleanly with the rest of the signal path. The aluminum chassis with magnetic iso-point feet completes the build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is this best for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You want a single-box, no-compromises system that handles streaming, room correction, phono, headphones, and 200-watt amplification — without buying separates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You stream music as your main source — Tidal, Qobuz, Amazon Music HD, Spotify, Apple AirPlay, internet radio — and want hi-res audio with Roon endpoint support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You want Dirac Live applied to every source — streams, optical, coaxial, HDMI, analog — with the option to add full-frequency Dirac Live Bass Control for dual-subwoofer integration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You play vinyl seriously and want a built-in MM\/MC phono stage that performs at the level of a stand-alone unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You watch a lot of TV through your stereo and want HDMI eARC so the TV remote controls volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You may want to scale up later — bridging the M33 V2 with a second M23 V2 in bridged mode creates a 700 W per channel system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You're integrating into a custom smart home — Control4, Crestron, Lutron, KNX, RTI, URC, iPort, Josh.ai, and Nice integration are all certified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does it connect to your system?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnalog inputs: MM\/MC phono (RCA), one balanced XLR line input, one AES\/EBU XLR digital input, plus line-level RCA inputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDigital inputs: two optical (Toslink), two coaxial S\/PDIF, HDMI eARC for the TV, USB Type A for thumb drives or external storage, AES\/EBU XLR for high-end transports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStreaming and wireless: Gigabit Ethernet, dual-band Wi-Fi 5, two-way aptX HD Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Qobuz Connect, Roon Ready, BluOS multi-room (up to 64 zones).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreamp outputs: balanced XLR stereo pair and stereo RCA — let you bypass the internal power amp and run the M33 V2 as a streaming preamp into a separate power amplifier.

The M33 V2 includes the streamer, DAC, ADC, MM\/MC phono, headphone amp, Dirac Live room correction, and 200-watt power amp. Plug in your speakers, network, and any sources, and you're playing music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the M33 V2 a good match for my speakers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe M33 V2 delivers 200 W per channel continuous (300 W dynamic into 8 Ω, 550 W into 4 Ω) using load-invariant Eigentakt amplification. That suits a very wide range of demanding speakers in medium-to-large rooms. The right pairing depends on your specific speakers and listening tastes. Call us at \u003ca href=\"tel:+18009420220\"\u003e800-942-0220\u003c\/a\u003e and we'll help you dial it in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the differences between Class A, Class A\/B, and Class D amplifiers? Which one is this?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe M33 V2 uses HybridDigital Purifi Eigentakt — a second-generation Class D design. Class A runs the output transistors fully on (clean, but hot and inefficient). Class A\/B blends both modes — the traditional analog approach, common in many expensive amps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClass D switches the output transistors rapidly. The benefit is very high efficiency and very low heat. Eigentakt is a modern Class D module from Bruno Putzeys' team at Purifi Audio, known for measurable performance at or beyond the best Class A\/B designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's different about the V2 versus the original M33?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe V2 brings second-generation Purifi Eigentakt modules (further reduced distortion compared with the original M33), an upgraded ESS Sabre ES9039PRO DAC (replacing the ES9028), a next-generation ESS ADC for analog source conversion, MQA Labs FOQUS and QRONO timing technologies, refined bass management, and Dirac Live Bass Control support (optional license). The dual subwoofer outputs now have higher output than the original M33.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does Dirac Live work on the M33 V2?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse the included calibration microphone and the Dirac Live app to measure your room's acoustics. The app uploads correction filters to the M33 V2. The included Dirac Live Limited Bandwidth license corrects timing and frequency response up to 500 Hz — the range where the room's effect is largest. Five customizable Dirac memory profiles let you save configurations for different rooms or seating positions. An optional upgrade to Dirac Live Full Frequency is available from Dirac. The optional Dirac Live Bass Control license independently calibrates dual subwoofers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this have a built-in phono stage? What cartridges does it support?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the M33 V2 has both moving-magnet (MM) and moving-coil (MC) phono inputs. SNR is over 92 dB MM and over 76 dB MC. Accurate RIAA equalization (±0.2 dB) and a built-in infrasonic filter suppress subsonic noise on records without compromising bass response. NAD specifies the phono stage at the performance level of stand-alone units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I connect my TV?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse the HDMI eARC input. Run a single HDMI cable from your TV's HDMI ARC\/eARC port to the M33 V2. Once paired with the TV's settings, the TV remote will control volume on the M33 V2 — no separate remote juggling for TV listening. Dirac Live applies to HDMI eARC audio too, since the M33 V2's MDC2-class signal path runs corrections on every input.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I bridge this for more power?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Pair the M33 V2 with a NAD M23 V2 stereo power amplifier (or two M23 V2s) in bridged-mono mode. The configuration delivers 700 W per channel into 8 Ω — flagship Masters Series output for the most demanding speakers and largest rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat music services and streaming protocols does it support?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBluOS has integrated support for more than 20 services, including hi-res lossless from Amazon Music HD, Deezer, Idagio, Qobuz, and Tidal. The M33 V2 also supports Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Qobuz Connect (added September 2025), Roon Ready, MQA decoding and rendering, and aptX HD Bluetooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this compare to the M23 V2?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe M23 V2 is a pure stereo power amplifier — it needs a preamp to feed it a signal. The M33 V2 is an all-in-one streaming integrated that includes everything (preamp, DAC, streamer, phono, headphone amp, room correction) plus a 200-watt power amp section. Pick the M33 V2 if you want one box that does everything; pick the M23 V2 if you already have a preamp (like the NAD M66) and want NAD's flagship stereo amp on its own. The two can also work together — M33 V2 + M23 V2 in bridged mode = 700 W per channel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNAD M33 V2 Master Series BluOS Streaming DAC Amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo detachable mains power cords\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHTRM 2 remote control with batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasurement microphone (with USB MIC Sound adapter and phone jack adapter)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick Setup Guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwner's manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Audio Advisor?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ec-titlebox-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/1f3b5.svg\" alt=\"music note emoji\" width=\"20\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e40+ Years of Expertise\u003c\/strong\u003e — Since 1981, we've helped over a million music lovers find the right gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/1f504.svg\" alt=\"repeat emoji\" width=\"20\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e60-Day Money-Back Guarantee\u003c\/strong\u003e — Take your time.
