No headphone output?

what speakers are a good partner for it?

I really think we should perhaps do away with the marks out of 10. Here we have an item given 10 but has 2 listings in the cons table. Yes I know you are going to say the 10 is by comparison to similar units.
In a few weeks, months something else might have appeared streets ahead so how do you score that item then?

Why no remote, got rid of my Cyrus One HD within a week as hated not having a remote, loved it apart from couldn;t live without a remote. Who wants to pick up your tablet / phone, fire up and app just to change the volume quickly when the phone rings...

Have to agree.

I do use phone/iPad apps for my iTunes and Spotify though; for track changing and album/playlist selection.

But for volume and mute, I want, and use, a real remote.

Even a simple one would be fine.

And at £2000 plus, it’s not too much to request I’d say.

Having said all that though, it does indeed sound like the perfect modern , serious weight, hifi amp.

And Dirac is a splendid addition. Top points to Nad it seems.

Yes agree use ipad or phone for most things, but a quick mute, vol  /-, pause, play etc is invaluable.. I have a NAD with BluSound in my lounge and the volume and input control using the BluOs app is dire, so I always have the remote just for that, but all other control is app based..

Bluetooth headphones are accommodated.

And it seems like it has the usual Nad current delivery to drive just about any speakers in a remotely price comparable sense.

For me, I’d try it out with a pair of Dynaudio Special 40s. And, say, an SVS 12” sub with Dirac.

I can only imagine it would be quite an awesome way to spend £5000

You can program any remote to work with it via the BluOS app. I have an old JBL basic 1 that I use but to be honest I use the app mainly to control volume.
