NAD Masters M23 V2 Stereo Power Amplifier 

The NAD Masters M23 HybridDigital Stereo Power Amplifier features Eigentakt™ amplifier technology, a once-in-a-decade innovation that virtually eliminates harmonic and intermodulation distortion; and delivers wide, flat frequency response regardless of the loudspeaker load. The result is transparent, detailed sound with pinpoint stereo imaging, at all listening levels and with all types of program material – even during complex musical passages. Conservatively rated at 2x200W continuous into 8 ohms and 2x380W into 4 ohms, the M23 can deliver live performance levels through any loudspeaker.

The M23 Brings A Newer, Purer Sound

Continuing NAD’s long tradition of identifying and developing cutting-edge amplification technology, the M23 Stereo Power Amplifier employs Eigentakt™ class-D amplifier modules manufactured by NAD under license from Purifi. Harmonic and IM distortion are almost immeasurable at all frequencies and output levels. Noise is inaudible, for a black background and outstanding micro-detail. Output impedance is extremely low, which translates to iron-clad control of any loudspeaker load.

Amazingly powerful and transparent, the M23 can deliver 2x260W of dynamic power into 8 ohms and 2x520W into 4 ohms.

In a Class of its Own

The ideal amplifier will combine vanishingly low distortion, ultra-high damping factor, and rock-solid stability with any loudspeaker. There are many amplifiers that perform well in one or two of these areas but fall short in others. Purifi’s ground-breaking Eigentakt™ technology and NAD’s proven switch-mode power supplies enable the M23 to excel in all these areas – without the excess weight and cost of the old-fashioned linear power supplies and class-AB output stages used with traditional amplifiers. In all these areas, Eigentakt™ outperforms previous class-D implementations by a significant margin.

NAD M23 V2 Has Flexibility

Equipped with single-ended RCA and balanced XLR auto-sensing inputs, three-position gain-control switch, and 12V trigger input, the NAD Masters M23 Stereo Power Amplifier can easily be integrated into a high-performance separates system. The M23 can operate in bridged mode, delivering 700W continuous power into 8 ohms. Two M23 amplifiers operating in bridged mode can be paired together, or listeners can combine the M23 with NAD’s award winning Masters M33 BluOS Streaming Amplifier, both operating in bridged mode, to configure a staggeringly powerful system with 700Wpc continuous output.

The NAD M23 Power Amplifier is Elegant

With its elegant all-alloy casework, the M23 Stereo Power Amplifier has the quality of construction for which NAD’s Masters Series is renowned. Rigid panels and magnetic iso-point feet provide a rock-solid foundation for the M23’s multi-layer circuit boards and intricate internal construction. The result is an amplifier that is as pleasing to the eye as it is thrilling to the ears. Offering a unique combination of features, performance, and value, the M23 represents the new benchmark for the stereo power amplifier.

Why Choose The NAD Masters M23 V2?

The NAD Masters M23 V2 Stereo Power Amplifier is a seriously impressive power amp that backs up its understated looks with some genuinely cutting-edge engineering. At its heart are Purifi’s ground breaking Eigentakt™ class-D amplifier modules, delivering vanishingly low harmonic and intermodulation distortion, an inaudible noise floor, and a wide, flat frequency response that stays rock-solid regardless of the loudspeaker load. Rated at a conservative 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 380 into 4, with dynamic power that climbs even higher, the M23 has effortless drive and control, producing transparent, highly detailed sound with pinpoint stereo imaging even when the music gets dense and demanding. Flexible touches like balanced XLR and RCA inputs, adjustable gain, trigger control, and the option to run bridged at a hefty 700 watts make it easy to drop into a serious separates system, while the elegant all-alloy Masters Series chassis keeps everything looking as refined as it sounds. The result is an amplifier that blends brute strength, finesse, and state-of-the-art design into something genuinely special.
