NAD C 700 BluOS Streaming Amplifier

LIMITED STOCK AVAILABLE.  

BluOS is the most advanced network streaming and multi-room operating system available. Part of a growing ecosystem of compatible products, BluOS tightly integrates hardware and software for an unbeatable user experience. The only wireless high-resolution multi-room system available today, BluOS supports the new standard for high res streaming, Master Quality Authenticated (MQA). With support for over 15 free and paid subscription services, as well as supporting locally stored music libraries, BluOS makes the C 700 incredibly versatile. Adding additional rooms is easy and affordable using Bluesound’s all-in-one speakers, or you can add premium components from NAD, DALI, and others to provide amazing sound throughout your home.

Understated Elegance

With Industrial Design by award winning design firm DF-ID, the C 700 takes a minimalist theme to new levels of elegance. The slender proportions are enhanced by authentic materials including solid brushed aluminum and smooth glass. Completely operable by Wi-Fi connection to the BluOS App, one need never touch the M10 in order to listen to your favourite songs. As you approach the C 700, the high-resolution touch screen beckons as the graphic changes from ‘now playing’ to ‘control panel’ allowing many operations directly from the front panel without opening an app. It also shows what’s currently playing and what is coming up next in the play queue.

Unmatched Performance

The C 700 uses NAD’s most sophisticated Masters Series technology to create a sonic performance that is second to none. HybridDigital amplification featuring the remarkable Hypex nCore amplification stage offers state-of-the-art performance along with the ability to drive any loudspeaker. Highly efficient and remarkably powerful, the C 700 can render even the subtlest of musical details with vivid realism. Effortless dynamics and a complete absence of electronic noise are hallmarks of this advanced technology.

Hands-Free Voice Control

Add the BluOS Voice Skill inside the Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant app and enjoy hands-free voice control of personal music collections, streaming services and more using a list of simple streamlined commands. Using an Echo or Google Home device you can ask Alexa or Google Assistant to play songs from your local library, queue up saved playlists, adjust the volume in different rooms, or ask what’s playing in the Kitchen. Want to try it out? No problem. Download the Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant app, activate the skill, tap the speech bubble in the bottom drawer of the Amazon Alexa app and say anything from the list of commands.

Music Meant to Be Heard, Not Seen

The NAD C 700 represents a new kind of high-end audio system that is luxurious and smart, but very discreet. It can perform the same functions that once required a rack full of components and in many ways is superior. The elegant form factor takes up very little space and can even be hidden away, but the beautiful design and colourful display will encourage you to place the C 700 front and center.
