Description
NAD Masters M33
The world's most advanced, Masters series flagship amplifier NAD M33. The best product of the year 2020-2021 EISA "Smart Amplifier".
The new flagship model of the NAD Masters series has many features such as Dirac Live room correction, BluOS multi-room streaming, touch screen, 32-bit DAC and MQA decoding.
With the new HybridDigital Purifi Eigentakt technology, the M33 follows NAD's long-standing tradition in the development of amplifier technology. The M33 delivers at least 200W per channel on tap, resulting in natural sonic performance with very low distortion and noise.
According to NAD, the measurement results approximate the limit values of the most sensitive and sophisticated test equipment available.
