NAD CI SA2-120 BluOS Streaming Amplifier

BLUOS STREAMING AMPLIFIER MODULE

The NAD CI SA2-120 BluOS Streaming Amplifier is designed to deliver high-quality amplification and networked music streaming in a single, compact solution for custom installation systems. Combining 240 watts of NAD DirectDigital™ amplification with dual stereo outputs and the BluOS multi-room platform, it can be used in single- or dual-zone configurations. Purpose-built for professional environments, the CI SA2-120 simplifies system design while maintaining the sound quality, reliability, and control expected from NAD. Now Dirac Live® Ready, it also supports advanced room correction with an optional licence and calibration microphone, enabling system optimisation for virtually any listening environment. It is an ideal solution for distributed audio, retrofit projects, and zones where space and efficiency are critical.

Features

Amplification and Streaming In One Platform

The CI SA2-120 combines power and streaming into a single component, eliminating the need for separate streamers and amplifiers at the zone level. With a total of 240 watts of continuous power available into 8 ohms, it can confidently drive architectural and standalone speakers while delivering consistent performance. This integrated approach reduces rack space, simplifies wiring, and shortens installation time, making it an efficient solution for both new builds and retrofit projects. Dirac Live® Ready support further enhances system performance by enabling advanced room correction with an optional licence and calibration microphone. By correcting both frequency response and timing, Dirac Live adapts each zone to its listening environment, delivering clearer, more balanced sound with improved imaging and spatial detail.

BluOS Multi-Room Streaming

Built on the BluOS platform, the CI SA2-120 provides access to high-resolution music streaming, internet radio, and local music libraries. BluOS allows zones to operate independently or as part of a larger multi-room system, all controlled through the BluOS Controller App or integrated with automation platforms. Designed for reliability and responsiveness, BluOS ensures a consistent user experience.

DirectDigital™ Power With CI Efficiency

NAD's DirectDigital™ amplification technology delivers clean, controlled power while maintaining high efficiency and low heat output. This design supports continuous operation and stable performance, even in space-constrained installations. By balancing power and efficiency, the CI SA2-120 delivers dependable sound quality across a wide range of listening levels without the thermal challenges of traditional amplification designs.

Built for Flexibility

The CI SA2-120 integrates easily into equipment racks and can also be discreetly hidden in cabinets or behind a television. Connectivity includes Ethernet or Wi-Fi for networking and BluOS control, as well as support for third-party control systems, HDMI eARC, and Bluetooth for local digital audio sources. Whether configured as a powerful single-zone stereo system in a media room or driving two independent BluOS zones as part of a larger distributed audio system, the CI SA2-120 provides installers with a streamlined, reliable solution. With support for Dirac Live Room Correction through an optional licence and calibration microphone, integrators can further optimise system performance for the unique acoustic characteristics of each listening space.
