It appears that Apple AirPlay 2 is featuring on many a hi-fi shoppers wishlist, so it makes sense that NAD is adding (Nadding, or is that something different?) it to their latest streaming amplifier and DAC.
If you are rocking the Classic Series C 658 BluOS Streaming DAC or lovely Master Series M10 BluOS Streaming Amplifier, you can download the free Apple Airplay 2 software update now.
You will be prompted to update to version 3.4.20 of BluOS, the company's proprietary multi-room platform. Once installed, AirPlay 2 will allow you to stream music services, podcasts, audiobooks, movies, games, YouTube audio, TV sound and stored music from an iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
Look, no hands!
Additionally, if you subscribe to Apple Music subscriber, you'll be able to control playback using Siri voice control. From there you can just tell your hi-fi what to play.
One for the oldies
If you have a NAD C 368 or C 388 you can get in on the action too. NAD has also released a BluOS 2i MDC module which can be slipped into your device's upgrade slot.
Priced at £399, the module adds BluOS multi-room streaming and AirPlay 2 functionality to the legacy kit.
The free download is available now, as is the BluOS 2i MDC module.
