Once the module is in the MDC2 slot (of a C399 or M33, for example), the amplifier gains BluOS streaming including MQA and multiroom, AirPlay 2, Spotify and Tidal Connect, an HDMI eARC input for your TV and the option of Dirac Live room correction. An upgrade that noticeably increases the value of your device.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded in the box are the module itself, the Dirac measurement microphone with USB adapter, and the Wi-Fi antennas. It connects via dual-band Wi-Fi or Gigabit Ethernet. Installation goes through the MDC2 slot – we're happy to fit it professionally at our workshop so warranty and function stay intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the MDC2 BluOS-D module for – and who isn't it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRight for owners of an MDC2-capable NAD amplifier who want to retrofit streaming, room correction and TV connectivity. Bottom line: the module fits exclusively into NAD devices with an MDC2 slot – not into older MDC or third-party devices. If in doubt, we'll check beforehand whether your amplifier is compatible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe MDC2 BluOS-D module is the smartest upgrade for your existing NAD system: streaming, room correction and HDMI for a fraction of a new device's price.

Older devices with the original MDC slot are not compatible, since MDC2 uses a bidirectional data connection. If you're unsure, tell us your model – we'll check compatibility before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a streaming subscription for the MDC2 BluOS-D module?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. With BluOS you can listen without a paid subscription too – internet radio, music files from your network or NAS, and the free tiers of many services. Paid services like Tidal or Qobuz are an option, not a requirement. You decide how much streaming you really want to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the MDC2 BluOS-D module at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA module upgrade lives and dies on the right assessment and a clean install.
