NAD M33 V2 Streaming Amplifier (Purifi, Dirac)

The NAD M33 V2 is the Masters series streaming integrated amplifier: a Purifi Eigentakt power stage with over 2× 200 watts, BluOS, Dirac Live, MM/MC phono and HDMI eARC in one chassis.

The flagship of all-in-one amplifiers – a complete high-end system that looks like a single, understated unit.

Why the NAD M33 V2?

Because it can do almost everything and still sounds uncompromising. The Purifi Eigentakt power stages deliver over 200 watts per channel into 8 and 4 ohms – enough to confidently drive even power-hungry floorstanding speakers, with extremely low distortion. Add BluOS for high-res streaming including MQA, the full version of Dirac Live for room correction, and a large 7-inch touchscreen. It's hard to pack more system into one chassis.

What you get

The M33 V2 is a true command center: two coaxial and two optical digital inputs, two line inputs, a high-quality MM/MC phono stage for demanding turntables and HDMI eARC for your TV. Two subwoofer outputs and a pre-out allow for expansion, and two MDC slots keep it future-proof. It's controlled via the touchscreen, the BluOS app or the remote; the Dirac measurement microphone is included.

Who is the NAD M33 V2 for – and who isn't it for?

Ideal if you want a complete high-end system in a single unit – including phono, streaming, room correction and TV connectivity. Bottom line: the M33 V2 is an investment; if you don't run large or demanding speakers and can do without phono or Dirac, the M10 V3 is the more affordable route. But if you want to get the maximum out of an all-in-one, this is exactly right.

Our verdict

The M33 V2 is the all-in-one flagship, no ifs or buts: Purifi power, Dirac Live, MM/MC phono and HDMI in one elegant chassis. A complete high-end system that needs just one shelf.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between the NAD M33 V2 and the M10 V3?

The M33 V2 is the bigger Masters flagship: over 2× 200 watts (versus 2× 100 W on the M10 V3), a full MM/MC phono stage, more connections and a larger chassis. Both share BluOS, Dirac Live, HDMI eARC and the touchscreen. The M10 V3 is the compact, more affordable solution; the M33 V2 is the uncompromising choice for large speakers and vinyl fans.

Does the NAD M33 V2 have a phono stage for turntables?

Yes, and a full-featured one: the M33 V2 comes with a switchable MM/MC phono stage, so you can connect both common moving-magnet and demanding moving-coil cartridges directly – no external phono box needed. For vinyl fans, that's one of the big advantages over the M10 V3.
