The MDC USB DSD expansion module allows the connection of any PC or MAC from one of its USB ports and is compatible with NAD models equipped with an MDC system: Master M12, Master M32, Master M33, C388, C368 and C658.
Thanks to the asynchronous USB connection with the MDC USB DSD module we have eliminated the computer sound and let the music flow freely. The module bypasses the computer's low-quality DAC, clocks and associated circuitry that cause jitter and distortion, by using the high-quality DAC from your NAD amplifier. Now you can hear the reproduced details and dynamics of the original recording in all their glory instead of the noise and distortion of typically mediocre computer audio stages.
With the increasing amount of high-resolution content up to 24-bit/192kHz available for download or streaming, experiencing music as it was originally recorded in the studio or at a live concert has never been easier. Using USB Audio 2, the MDC USB DSD allows playback of DSD files up to DSD256 by converting to 24-bit/192kHz high-resolution PCM audio. Enjoy the convenience of playing your favorite music from your computer's USB connection, streaming from your local hard drive, or from popular music streaming services like Spotify, Tidal or Qobuz. The MDC USB DSD is sure to expand the musical enjoyment of your NAD amplifier.
