Overview

A versatile hifi system heart with onboard streaming from BluOS, analogue inputs including XLR, and a built-in MM and MC capable phonostage, NAD's M66 can be integrated to work with a range of smart home systems including Crestron, Control4, ELAN, RTI and URC. eARC even allows for seamless connect to your TV or projector.

Dirac Live Room Correction helps manage your in-room experience and can act as a digital crossover between your speakers and subwoofer/s. 

The inclusion of a powerful headphone amplifier means that the M66 can be used into late night listening sessions.

Whether fully realised in a smart home environment, or used as a stand alone preamplifier with an external source, the M66 is true to NAD's house sound and provides dynamic, quick and colourless attenuation for your power amplifier.
