M27

About the M27

The NAD M27 is a seven‑channel power amplifier from NAD’s Masters Series, designed for high‑performance home theater and multichannel music systems. Using Hybrid Digital amplification with Hypex nCore Class D modules, it delivers at least 180 watts of continuous power per channel into both 8‑ohm and 4‑ohm loads with all channels driven, and provides over 300 watts of dynamic power per channel. The M27 is stable into difficult speaker loads and achieves very low distortion (≤0.005% THD+N) and a very high damping factor, contributing to tight, controlled bass and clean, detailed sound. Connectivity includes both balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs for all seven channels (selectable per channel), along with high‑quality binding posts for speaker connections and a 12V trigger input for system integration. Frequency response is essentially flat across the audible band, and the amplifier is engineered for high efficiency and relatively modest weight compared with traditional large multichannel power amps. Part of the Masters Series industrial design, the M27 features a solid, high‑quality chassis with an aluminum front panel in NAD’s contemporary style, matching components such as the M17 surround preamp/processor. Its compact 17‑inch‑wide form factor allows easy rack or shelf placement in premium home theater installations.
