Capture every detail with the NAD M66

The NAD Masters M66 is one of the most feature-rich and technologically advanced preamplifiers on the market today. Its exceptional circuitry design features separate digital and analogue signal paths that add functionality like distinct volume attenuation for analogue and digital signals, a true analogue direct for the MM/MC phono stage, and an independent headphone amplifier. It also boasts four independent subwoofer outputs and includes licenses for Dirac Live and Bass Control tools.

The M66 also introduces a new proprietary technology, Dynamic Digital Headroom (DDH), that eliminates inter-sample peak clipping, and reduces signal-to-noise ratio, and relies on the top-tier ESS Sabre DAC, ensuring only the cleanest signal is passed along for amplification. BluOS wireless hi-res multi-room streaming, is included, in addition to Apple AirPlay2, two-way aptX HD Bluetooth, and a host of other inputs and outputs.

Experience pure hi-res perfection

The M66 matches perfectly with the NAD Masters M23 Stereo Power Amplifier both visually and in performance for a truly killer combo. The M23 features Purifi Audio’s ground-breaking Eigentakt™ technology, a once-in-a-decade innovation that virtually eliminates noise and distortion. Quite simply, the Masters M66/M23 pre/pro combo is the most advanced hi-fi component system NAD has ever offered. Of course, the M66 can also be paired with any other high-performance power amplifier of your choice.

Flagship Classic Series integrated amplifier

Featuring Masters Series grade HybridDigital nCore amplification, ESS Sabre DAC and MDC2 Modular Design Construction Architecture

NAD Electronics, the highly regarded manufacturer of high-performance audio/video components, takes value and performance to a whole new level. The C 399 Hybrid Digital DAC Amplifier is the clearest expression yet of NAD’s commitment to sonic excellence and lasting value. Employing NAD’s HybridDigital nCore™ amplification, which until now has been available only on Masters Series amplifiers, the C 399 is the new flagship integrated amplifier in NAD’s Classic Series. The C 399’s digital section is built around a 32-bit/384kHz ESS Sabre DAC, the same chip used in NAD’s acclaimed M10 and M33 Masters Series amplifiers. Retail availability is expected in time for the holiday season.

The C 399 is also the first amplifier to incorporate the latest generation of NAD’s Modular Design Construction (MDC) technology: MDC2. MDC2 lets users add optional modules that provide functions such as BluOS Hi-Res multi-room music streaming, Dirac Live room correction, and more.

Key Features of the NAD C 399:

• Hybrid Digital nCore Amplifier
• Continuous Power: 180 Watts per channel into 8/4 ohms
• Instantaneous Power: 250 Watts per channel
• Vanishingly low harmonic and intermodulation distortion
• Dual MDC2 Slots for expanded functionality
• Optional MDC2 BluOS-D module adds BluOS multi-room streaming and Dirac Live room correction
• Jitter-free 32-bit/384kHz ESS Sabre DAC
• Ultra-low-noise MM phono stage with infrasonic filtering circuitry
• Two optical, two coaxial digital inputs

The NAD C 399 is now available for $1,999.
