Endpoint Network Streamer

NAD’s affordable CS1 Endpoint Network Streamer lets you add music streaming capability to any stereo or home-theatre system. Or you can configure a low-footprint music system for your den or home office by connecting the CS1 to a pair of powered speakers. The CS1 supports the most popular network streaming and casting protocols, including Apple AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, DLNA mobile and computer apps*, and Roon, so you can control playback with the music apps you use every day. The CS1 employs audiophile-grade components and can play high-resolution audio, up to 24-bit/192kHz.

Plug and Play

A compact, minimalist design, the NAD CS1 has a pair of line-level analogue RCA outputs for connection to a stereo receiver, integrated amp, preamplifier, or a pair of powered speakers. Alternatively, you can use the CS1’s optical or coaxial output to send digital audio to an AV receiver, external DAC, or a pair of powered speakers with digital input, at up to 24-bit/192kHz resolution.

You can connect the CS1 to your home network via Wi-Fi or hardwire its LAN Ethernet port to your network router or an access point, or use Bluetooth® to pair the CS1 with your mobile device.

Stream Your Way

You don’t have to install special apps to play music through the NAD CS1 Endpoint Network Streamer. Using Bluetooth, you can stream audio from any app on your smartphone, tablet, or computer.

You’ll get even better sound via Wi-Fi or Ethernet. The CS1 supports AirPlay 2, so you can stream CD-resolution audio from any app on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, or from an iTunes library on a Windows PC. With Chromecast, you can choose the music you want to hear in any Cast-enabled app on a mobile device or personal computer, then transfer playback to the CS1 at up to 24-bit/96kHz resolution.

Spotify and Tidal subscribers can cue up music in the apps for those services, then transfer playback from their device to the CS1. Roon subscribers can play music from their digital libraries and from streaming services supported by Roon.

Premium Sound

The CS1 features an advanced differential digital section based on Texas Instruments’ PCM5142 DAC, a design known for its wide dynamic range, low noise floor, and immunity to clock jitter. It supports resolution up to 24-bit/192kHz and has MQA pass-through support for both digital outputs, enabling full decoding and rendering by a compatible external DAC for playing Master Quality Authenticated music.

Streaming doesn’t get easier than this. Pair the NAD CS1 Endpoint Network Streamer with your mobile device or connect it to your home network, then use your favorite apps to choose the music you want to hear. Then sit back and enjoy glorious, high-fidelity sound.

Why Choose NAD

NAD is one of the most respected and enduring names in modern Hi-Fi, known for combining intelligent engineering, real-world usability, and strong musical performance without unnecessary complication or excess. Since the 1970s, the brand has built a loyal worldwide following through products that consistently prioritise sound quality, practicality, and long-term value over marketing spectacle.

What makes NAD particularly successful is the company’s ability to blend modern streaming technology, amplifier innovation, and system flexibility into products that remain approachable and highly enjoyable to live with. From compact streaming amplifiers through to reference-level Masters Series components, NAD products are designed to deliver genuine high-fidelity performance while integrating seamlessly into contemporary listening environments.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, NAD appeals strongly to customers seeking modern Hi-Fi systems that combine musical engagement, streaming convenience, and long-term upgrade flexibility without becoming overly complex or intimidating.

Signature Design and Sound

NAD products are engineered around a philosophy of efficiency, low-noise design, and preserving musical dynamics. Across both the Classic and Masters Series ranges, the company incorporates technologies including HybridDigital amplification, BluOS streaming integration, Dirac Live room correction, and highly refined DAC platforms designed to deliver strong performance within increasingly modern system architectures.

One of the most significant products within the current NAD range is the immensely popular C 3050 BluOS-D. Combining retro-inspired industrial design with modern streaming functionality and BluOS integration, the C 3050 has become particularly successful in Australia by offering customers an engaging and approachable entry into serious Hi-Fi. It captures much of the visual charm of classic NAD designs while incorporating contemporary streaming, HDMI connectivity, and room correction capabilities into a highly versatile integrated amplifier platform.

The M10 V3 sits beautifully between the Classic and Masters Series ranges, combining compact design, premium industrial execution, advanced streaming capability, and surprisingly serious amplifier performance within a highly elegant all-in-one system. For many customers, the M10 V3 represents one of the most complete modern Hi-Fi solutions currently available, particularly when partnered with carefully matched loudspeakers.

Within the Masters Series itself, the M66 preamplifier has emerged as one of the most important products in the range. Combining BluOS streaming, Dirac Live room correction, advanced DAC architecture, balanced analogue design, and highly sophisticated system integration capabilities, the M66 functions as a remarkably complete high-end control centre for modern reference systems.

Sonically, NAD products are generally known for their strong rhythmic drive, clean dynamics, and balanced presentation. The sound feels controlled, open, and musically engaging without becoming overly warm or excessively analytical, making NAD products highly versatile across a broad range of speakers and listening environments.

NAD Product Range

The NAD range available through HeyNow Hi-Fi includes integrated amplifiers, streaming amplifiers, DACs, preamplifiers, power amplifiers, and BluOS-enabled music systems designed across multiple performance levels and system sizes.

The Classic Series continues NAD’s long-standing focus on value, flexibility, and musical performance, while the Masters Series expands upon this philosophy through more advanced chassis construction, refined circuitry, premium DAC implementations, and increasingly sophisticated streaming and room correction technologies.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, Geoff and his experienced system setup team provide assistance with BluOS integration, speaker matching, Dirac Live configuration, streaming setup, and complete system optimisation to ensure NAD products perform at their full potential within each customer’s listening environment.
