NAD CI 720 V2 BluOS Network Stereo Music Player

The NAD CI 720 V2 Network Stereo Zone Amplifier is designed to deliver scalable, single-zone music distribution with integrated amplification for custom installation systems. Built on the BluOS multi-room platform, it combines high-resolution streaming with onboard power, reducing system complexity and hardware requirements. Compared to source-only solutions, CI 720 V2 provides a more complete, rack-based audio engine for whole-home and light commercial installations. With reliable network performance, flexible zone control, and NAD’s focus on sound quality and long-term stability, CI 720 V2 offers an efficient way to deploy multi-room audio at scale.

Key Features

• Up to six stereo zones of integrated amplification in a 3U rack space
• Centralised rack-mount solution for distributed audio systems
• Independent zone control for flexible system design
• Ethernet networking for stable, wired performance
• Integration with leading control and automation systems
• Reliable, air-cooled operation in CI environments

One Platform. Multiple Powered Zones

The CI 720 V2 delivers a single stereo zone with built-in HybridDigital™ amplification, allowing installers to power multiple rooms directly from a single rack-mounted component. This contrasts with source-only players that require external amplification for every zone. By integrating amplification at the core, CI 720 V2 simplifies system architecture, reduces rack space, and shortens installation time in whole-home audio projects.

BluOS Across Every Zone

Powered by BluOS, the CI 720 V2 provides access to high-resolution streaming services, internet radio, and local music libraries across all six zones. Each zone can be controlled independently or grouped for synchronized playback, offering flexibility for a wide range of residential and light commercial applications. BluOS ensures responsive control and reliable performance across the entire system.

Integrated Amplification for Efficient System Design

Unlike network music players that rely on external amplifiers, the CI 720 V2 includes amplification for every zone. This integrated approach reduces the need for additional hardware, simplifies wiring, and lowers overall system cost. It allows installers to deploy multi-room audio systems more efficiently while maintaining consistent sound quality across all connected spaces.

Built for Rack-Based CI Systems

Designed specifically for professional environments, the CI 720 V2 features a rack-mount chassis and Ethernet networking for dependable operation. Support for leading control platforms enables seamless integration into professionally managed systems. Engineered for continuous use and long-term reliability, the CI 720 V2 provides installers with a scalable, all-in-one solution for up to 6 stereo zones in a 3U rack space.
