With 300 W per channel into 8 Ω and 600 W per channel into 4 Ω, it drives demanding loudspeakers with calm authority, preserving a stable soundstage and fast transient response even at realistic listening levels. Built around MOON’s MDCA (MOON Distortion-Cancelling Amplifier) architecture and a no global feedback design, the 861 focuses on vanishingly low distortion and clean, uncompressed power delivery. Two custom low-noise toroidal transformers (900 VA each) and massive power supply capacitance (240,000 µF) support wide dynamic swings, while premium connectivity—RCA\/XLR inputs, stereo\/mono operation, MOONLink coordination, and smart standby modes—makes it easy to integrate into elite separates systems.

Integration is equally refined: auto-sensing balanced XLR and RCA inputs, a three-position gain control, and an intelligent 12V trigger with delay make it easy to match with a wide range of preamps and multi-amp systems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe NAD M23 V2 is part of ListenUp's \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/listenup.com\/collections\/nad-power-amps\" title=\"NAD Power Amps Collection\"\u003eNAD Power Amps Collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eWhat It's Good At:\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDelivering effortless, high-current power that keeps demanding speakers controlled and articulate\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRevealing micro-detail and space with ultra-low noise and vanishingly low distortion\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMaintaining tight bass and precise imaging with a very high damping factor\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eScaling from premium stereo systems to dual-mono and bridged high-output configurations\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntegrating cleanly into custom and multi-amp setups with intelligent triggering and gain options\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProviding balanced and unbalanced connectivity with auto-sensing inputs for easier system matching\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch4\u003eNAD M23 V2 Full Specifications:\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInput impedance (R and C):\u003c\/strong\u003e Single-ended: 56 kohms + 200 pF; Balanced: 56 kohms + 200 pF\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response (1W into 8 Ohms):\u003c\/strong\u003e ±0.06 dB (20–20 kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated output power into 8 Ohms and 4 Ohms (Stereo mode):\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;200W into 8 Ohm; \u0026gt;380W into 4 Ohm\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated output power into 8 Ohms (Bridge mode, ref. 20 Hz–20 kHz at rated):\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;700W into 8 Ohm\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTHD (20 Hz–20 kHz):\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt;0.00069% (XLR); \u0026lt;0.0013% (RCA)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSignal-to-Noise Ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;101.7 dB (1W into 8 Ohm)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClipping power (Stereo mode, at 1 kHz 0.1% THD):\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;210W (0.1% THD, 1 kHz, 8 ohms)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClipping power (Bridge mode, at 1 kHz 0.1% THD):\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;770W\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIHF dynamic power (Stereo mode, at 1 kHz):\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 ohms: 260W\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIHF dynamic power (Bridge mode, at 1 kHz):\u003c\/strong\u003e 1017W\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak output current:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;25A (in 1 ohm, 1 ms)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDamping factor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;800 (ref. 8 ohms, 20 Hz to 6.5 kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e ±0.06 dB (stereo), ±0.054 dB (bridged); 20 Hz–20 kHz; -3 dB at 60 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChannel separation:\u003c\/strong\u003e High gain RCA: \u0026gt;97 dB; Low gain XLR: \u0026gt;115 dB (1 kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStereo Mode input sensitivity (for 200W in 8 ohms):\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.5V (Low gain), 2.5V (Mid gain), 1.4V (High gain)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStereo Mode Gain:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19 dB (low), 23.9 dB (mid), 29.2 (high)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Mode Gain:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25.1 dB (low), 30 dB (mid), 35.2 (high)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandby Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt;0.5W\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W x H x D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 435 x 133 x 381 mm (17 1\/8 x 5 1\/4 x 15“)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNet Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.7 kgs \/ 21.4 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShipping Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17.5 kgs \/ 38.5 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShipping Size (W x H x D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 569 x 258 x 519 mm (22 13\/32 x 20 7\/16 x 10 5\/32“)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch4\u003eNAD M23 V2 Q\u0026amp;A:\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdl\u003e \u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much power does the NAD M23 V2 deliver in stereo mode?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e \u003cdd\u003eIt provides continuous output of 200W per channel into 8 ohms and 380W per channel into 4 ohms, designed to stay controlled and clean at real-world listening levels.\u003c\/dd\u003e \u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the M23 V2 be used as a mono amplifier?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e \u003cdd\u003eYes.
