With the NAD C 658 priced at the more premium end of the market, you would expect it to tick off most of them, which it does. A streamer, DAC and preamp combination, this NAD is a real Swiss Army knife of a hi-fi component.
The C 658 uses the BluOS streaming platform, which was developed for Bluesound kit and has since expanded to other brands within the Lenbrook parent company, such as NAD.
Futureproof design
The platform and its accompanying BluOS app is an access point for many streaming music and radio services, including Spotify, Amazon Music, Tidal, Deezer, Qobuz, HDTracks, Napster, TuneIn Radio and iHeartRadio. It can also access local and networked music, supporting files up to 32-bit/192kHz and including MQA, of which more than 250,000 tracks can be indexed.
It facilitates multi-room pairing with any other player in the BluOS ecosystem, and boasts another form of multi-room and streaming for Apple devices courtesy of AirPlay 2.
We think that this app – available on iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac OS phones, tablets and computers – sets a real benchmark for streaming platforms.
The BluOS app is easy to operate and nicely designed. It’s reliably responsive too; even switching from songs in one music service to another or to a local library is smooth.

While the Ult button might be unnecessary on headphones, it makes sense on a portable outdoor speaker like the Field 1.
