NAD Electronics has released two additions to its Masters Series, the M33 V2 BluOS streaming amplifier and the M23 V2 stereo power amplifier. These next-generation models build on the legacy of the original M33 and M23 with cutting-edge digital architecture, refined sonic performance, and enhanced connectivity for audiophiles, custom integrators, and premium audio dealers.
M33 V2
The original M33 was widely welcomed for combining audiophile-grade sound with modern streaming convenience. The M33 V2 raises the bar yet again. Incorporating MQA Labs’ new FOQUS and QRONO technologies, alongside an ESS SABRE ES9039PRO DAC, a next-generation ESS ADC, and Gen 2 Purifi Eigentakt amplifier modules, the M33 V2 is engineered for absolute timing precision and musical integrity throughout the entire signal chain.
“NAD is the first company to address psychoacoustic timing issues along the entire signal path,” says Cas Oostvogel, NAD’s product manager. “With the M33 V2, we’ve eliminated distortion not just in the traditional sense, but in the way human ears actually perceive sound timing — delivering a listening experience that’s more nuanced, more accurate, and more emotionally engaging.”
Key enhancements include:
- FOQUS (ADC) and QRONO (DAC) from MQA Labs: Ensure accurate signal conversion and preserve timing, nuance, and spatial cues
- New ESS ES9039PRO DAC: Achieves ultra-low distortion and wider dynamic range
- Dirac Live Bass Control readiness: Delivers precise subwoofer integration and optimized room response
- XLR pre-outs + higher subwoofer output level: Provides expanded system flexibility for separates and multi-sub configurations
With BluOS multi-room streaming, Apple AirPlay 2, aptX HD Bluetooth, HDMI eARC, and support for major smart home platforms, the M33 V2 is versatile in any system.
M23 V2
Following the M23’s reputation as a high-value, high-performance power amplifier, the M23 V2 pushes boundaries further. Featuring the latest Eigentakt modules from Purifi, NAD’s amplifier design expertise, and system-friendly enhancements, the M23 V2 delivers authoritative dynamics and vanishingly low distortion.
Capable of delivering 200 watts per channel (8 ohms) or 700 watts bridged, the M23 V2 is the perfect companion to the M33 V2 or M66 preamp, creating an ultra-high-performance, flexible system.
Key enhancements include:
- Updated Eigentakt modules: Refined timing and distortion suppression
- New 12V trigger output with timed delay: Simplifies daisy-chaining of multiple amps and prevents surge spikes
- Balanced XLR and single-ended RCA inputs: Ensures seamless integration into a wide range of setups
- Bridgeable operation: Output doubles in mono mode for maximum system headroom
Used together, the M33 V2 and M23 V2 offer an end-to-end NAD solution that embodies the Masters Series philosophy: benchmark innovation, intuitive control, and sonic performance that rivals boutique brands.
Both the M33 V2 and M23 V2 feature elegant aluminum casework with magnetic iso-point feet and precision-machined detailing. Inside, every circuit, module, and layout reflects a focus on musical truth and system flexibility, guided by the latest research in psychoacoustics and engineering.
