Introduced in 2006, MDC lets owners of NAD components add exciting new capabilities — in the past, this has included Dolby Atmos immersive audio, 4K video switching, and BluOS multi-room music streaming. Modular Design Construction2 features an all-new design that enables bidirectional communications between the module and host component, allowing a dramatically wider range of upgrade options; the MDC2 platform is ready for innovations that have yet to be conceived.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis first module, MDC2 BluOS-D, adds Dirac Live room correction and BluOS multi-room music streaming to all compatible products listed above.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDirac Live Room Correction\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eThe weakest link in most sound systems is the listening environment. Room modes can cause boomy, uneven bass response; and reflections of sounds from room surfaces can smear transients and disrupt stereo imaging. Dirac Live analyzes room acoustics, and then uploads compensation filters to the MDC2 BluOS-D module. The MDC2 BluOS-D module corrects peaks and dips at frequencies up to 500Hz, which is the area where room modes are most problematic; a license for the full-bandwidth version of Dirac Live is available as an option. Dirac Live also optimizes impulse response by analyzing how sounds are reflected off room surfaces.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith Dirac Live enabled, listeners will enjoy vastly improved bass clarity, imaging, and timbral accuracy on all sources. The MDC2 BluOS-D module can store up to five Dirac profiles for different listening positions or room conditions—for example whether the drapes are open or closed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe MDC2 BluOS-D module is NAD’s first module to enable Dirac Live room correction on a two-channel component—a testament to the versatility of the MDC2 platform.
