This is a beautiful preamplifier. Extremely appealing. I thought my C165 would be my forever analog only preamp with a node and separate DAC in front of it, but if I can ever afford one, I would love an M66 on my rack! Excellent job with engineering and design!
Some early M66 owners reported some (software) shortcomings that NAD should correct with future firmware updates - what is the "current state of the nation" from your point of view?
Unfortunately BluOS does not Chromecast and UPnP/DLNA. If it did NAD had an additional customer. Phono should be an MCD option. The digital onlys don't want to pay for it. The balanced analog direct mode is great though. It allows to play with high end DACs.
I have NAD C658 I would prefer lower price maybe like M33 ("nearly" same unit plus amp. cost 3999.- euros ). No need support for 4 subs. Screen I prefer OLED, Qled or VA with better black, not gray in the night.
MUSIC PRODUCERS BEWARE! It's is a great amp acoustically, I love it. I have the M33 but the problem with NAD amps no one is talking about is latency! If you want to play anything live, like putting the stylus on the record, the gap between action and sound is seconds! So when I try to play some ideas in my living room for music production for example, the latency makes its impossible to use. So its only good for Spotify streaming or digital listening, anything analog or music production it falls apart.... not sound wise but timing wise.

Hi is the BluOS Module the same as the current Node just without the case?

It has no DSD support. I have quite a few SACDs. I was interested, was, not now.
Is there any plan to upgrade/change the M33?
Be nice if the remote control could do the ‘ Deep Standby Mode ‘ rather than holding your finger on the front sensor.
Do you have a bluesound enabled power amp?
What do you mean?
nad should make a stereo receiver and a universal player similar to oppo.

Nice but does not play native Apple Music like the Eversolo DMP-A6.
I do like NAD because I have the NAD C298 (similar to NAD M23).
Would have been great, but NO home theather bypass is a deal breaker for me
