NAD M32 is the Ultimate Bridge Product

In Secrets of Home Theater and High-Fidelity’s review of the M32 DirectDigital™ amplifier, writer Chris Eberle raves about the sensations he felt while listening to music through the integrated amp. Selecting works from the likes of Robert Plant and Anne-Sophie Mutter, Eberle couldn’t help but get lost in the music thanks to the M32’s stellar performance. “It was a private arena rock concert right in my listening room,” says Eberle. “The performance came alive right in front of me right down to the clicking of [the piano’s] keys and the pianist’s feet working the pedals. I was inspired to listen to the entire disc and it was over before I even realized the time.”

One of the latest additions to NAD’s prestigious Masters Series, the NAD M32 is bridging the gap between classic hi-fi and contemporary audio systems, thanks to NAD’s innovative BluOS™ technology. “The NAD M32 Direct Digital Amplifier is a true bridge product. On one hand, it’s a high-end two-channel integrated amplifier that employs some impressive technology from the Masters Series. But when you plug in the optional BluOS module, it becomes a fully-capable streaming player that can pull in content from your network’s library, the Internet, or anything with Bluetooth capability,” says Eberle.

Designed to turn your component into a state-of-the-art music management system, BluOS allows you to seamlessly access your music library, cloud music services, and Internet radio, all through the rich and intuitive BluOS Controller app. Eberle experienced this first hand when it came to browsing different radio stations via iHeartRadio. “Once the player is on [your] network, you can select from multiple content sources,” says Eberle. “The real fun begins when you sign up for a service like iHeartRadio. I spent several afternoons checking out radio stations from all over the world, and a few local ones too.”

Eberle concludes his review by stating, “the M32 Direct Digital Amplifier is a winning design that’s been perfectly executed. It receives my highest recommendation.”
