NAD C368 BluOS

Description

The NAD C368 is an upgradeable digital amplifier equipped with BlueOS streaming, Apple Airplay 2, and Bluetooth. With a built-in MDC (Modular Design Construction), you’ll be able to customize it with additional capabilities and features whenever you want, like HDMI switching.

I have the NAD M33 in my home garage with an MDC. This allows me to use Apple TV 4K while running HDMI in and then HDMI out. It sounds a little clunky, but it works. With that being said, if you’re looking to run Apple TV, you want this amplifier. 

NAD is being extremely conservative when it comes to the amount of wattage this thing puts out. They have it rated at 80-watts per channel. I hooked this up to the DynAudio Evoke 30’s I tested, and it could handle the 85/86 dB sensitivity. So, even the power-hungry speakers out there will work with this unit.  

My prediction is that this amplifier style won’t be around for long. It’ll end up getting replaced by the more modern, compact amps like the NAD C700 or NAD M10 V2. Despite its potential exit, it’s an excellent investment that will give you many years of high-performance amplification, whether in your garage or home theatre.
