Product Description:
The NAD M23 V2 HybridDigital™ Stereo Power Amplifier showcases over five decades of amplifier engineering, refined into a cutting-edge design. At its core are second-generation Purifi Eigentakt™ modules, uniquely implemented by NAD to maintain exceptional linearity across any speaker load. These advanced modules reduce distortion and noise while expanding dynamic range, resulting in an impressively transparent and detailed presentation. From subtle textures to complex passages, the M23 V2 delivers precise imaging and effortless clarity at any volume.

The M23 V2 is conservatively rated at 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 380 watts per channel into 4 ohms, positioning it as a true reference-grade power amplifier. Its commanding dynamic output—260W x 2 into 8 ohms and 520W x 2 into 4 ohms—guarantees powerful, uncompressed delivery across the frequency spectrum. Whether driving easy or demanding loudspeakers, the M23 V2 offers both finesse and impact, preserving the full weight and energy of the music with effortless control.
Pure Sound Delivered By Purifi
Building on NAD’s legacy of innovation in amplifier design, the M23 V2 Stereo Power Amplifier incorporates the latest generation of Eigentakt™ Class D modules from Purifi. These advanced modules offer vanishingly low harmonic and intermodulation distortion across the full frequency range and at all output levels. With an exceptionally low noise floor and ultra-low output impedance, the M23 V2 maintains tight grip over any loudspeaker, delivering consistent, articulate bass and pristine musical detail. For discerning listeners, it stands as a top-tier solution in high-performance stereo amplification.
In a class of its own
The NAD M23 V2 sets a new benchmark for audiophile amplifiers by combining exceptionally low distortion, ultra-high damping, and unwavering stability with any speaker load. While many amplifiers excel in just one or two of these areas, the M23 V2—powered by second-generation Purifi Eigentakt™ modules and NAD’s advanced switch mode power supplies—delivers across the board. This refined Class D implementation offers superior musicality and efficiency without the added heat or bulk of traditional analog designs. With its expertly engineered performance, the M23 V2 stands out as a serious contender for best-in-class amplification.

Designed for seamless integration and flexibility
The M23 V2 is built for easy system matching and flexibility, featuring both balanced XLR and single-ended RCA inputs with auto-sensing, a three-position gain control, and a smart 12V trigger system for synchronized power-up. It supports bridged mode operation, delivering 700 watts of continuous power into 8 ohms—ideal for high-demand setups. Two M23 V2 units can also be used in bridge mode for massive output, with a built-in delay on the 12V trigger to prevent power surges. It pairs seamlessly with the NAD M66 BluOS Streaming DAC Preamplifier or NAD M33 V2 integrated amp, offering an elegant path to a high-power, network-enabled hi-fi system.
Practical elegance
Housed in a refined all-alloy chassis, the M23 V2 Stereo Power Amplifier reflects the sophisticated design language of the NAD MASTERS Series. Its rigid construction, complete with magnetic iso-point feet and multi-layer circuit boards, ensures both mechanical stability and optimal performance. This attention to structural detail supports the amplifier’s precision electronics while complementing its high-end aesthetic. Whether chosen as a powerful 200W-per-channel solution or as part of a high-resolution audio system, the M23 V2 offers a compelling blend of acoustic authority, modern design, and cutting-edge technology—raising the bar for NAD’s high-fidelity offerings.
