NAD CI SA2-120 BluOS Streaming Amplifier Module

Compact and Scalable

Part of NAD’s new CI Modular Series, the CI SA2-120 is designed with scalability, flexibility, and reliability in mind. With its minimal rack space requirements (1/3 width x 1U height), the CI SA2-120 still manages to pack in a 2 x 120W DirectDigital™ amplifier with built-in thermostatic cooling to drive air circulation and allow amplifier stacking in a rack. Add in the award-winning multi-room music management platform, BluOS, and it strikes the perfect balance between size and function.

Versatile Use Cases

The SA2-120 has a versatile amplifier platform which can be used in a 2 x 120 wpc stereo system or a 4 x 60 wpc configuration via the additional pair of outputs with Dynamic Load Management, determining the way the amplifier will distribute its power. Additionally, the device can be used in a Main Zone/Sub Zone configuration within BluOS, which adds independent volume control for the 2 pairs of speaker outputs, making it ideal for extended areas like a bedroom with ensuite.

Flexible to Use

Mount the CI SA2-120 to a wall or in a rack with the included keyholes, rack ears and interlocking in-rack connection design, or safely place on a finished surface using its rubber feet. Connect it to a multitude of signal-sensing inputs and outputs, including WiFi and ethernet connectivity, Bluetooth, Apple AirPlay 2, HDMI eARC, analogue and digital line ins, 2 x 4-pin snap-on Phoenix block speaker connectors, IR input, 12V output trigger, subwoofer out, and many more. Whether designing new or retrofit systems, it offers integrators an unprecedented amount of flexibility in mounting and connectivity.

BluOS Enabled

With the renowned BluOS platform available out of the box, the CI SA2-120 becomes a powerful content management tool that brings in streaming audio content from over 20 natively integrated streaming services including internet radio, Spotify, Tidal, Pandora, and Amazon Music, and capture and manage external audio sources with ease. Create groups and perma-groups for your zones, and control and monitor them with BluOS’s wider ecosystem of control system integrations including Control4, Crestron, NICE, URC, RTI, Lutron, and KNX.

Dirac Live Ready

The size, shape, and contents of a room can have drastic effects on how audio sounds. With an added Dirac Live license, any audio in any room can be calibrated to ensure your client gets the most out of their audio system.
