Wow. How much do you use the unit? Mine is also ~2 years old and it's on the main viewing tv and used heavily.So, my NAD M10 fried while listening Maybe the protection circuit and/or heat protection were not so effective after all.

Not used daily, but occasionally used for loud listening as was the case during the failure.Wow. How much do you use the unit? Mine is also ~2 years old and it's on the main viewing tv and used heavily.
Ditto. Mine is in my main system and is used for several hours a day. Zero issues.Wow. How much do you use the unit? Mine is also ~2 years old and it's on the main viewing tv and used heavily.
Bummer,Not used daily, but occasionally used for loud listening as was the case during the failure.
Triangle Signature Delta's, highpass at 80 Hz was active.Bummer,
What speakers were they driving?
With these specs they don't appear to be too bad a load,Triangle Signature Delta's, highpass at 80 Hz was active.
Unfortunate (from my point of view) that you didn't have the time/opportunity of using Dirac Live... I'd expect that it would have improved the weak aspects of the Forte IIIs and I was interested in your comments as I'm thinking of the Forte IVsAn update on my M10 V2....I returned it and will work with other options. Rationale below:
- The sound was not that much better than any of the existing systems I have.
- The touchscreen display is really not that compelling due to its programming (its physical look/resolution/crispness/responsiveness is great)
- Only support 8 presets
- Does not allow you to access BluOS favorites
- The VU meters are not Amp based...so just a gimmick (I mean really, who needs VU meters for input signal?)
- The display usage is pretty basic (presets/inputs/settings, plus the 'while playing' displays)
- The Cost is just hard to swallow given the above

Nice desk!I moved the M10 onto a new leather desk (I just made)
To follow up: After the insurance claim went through, I opened the unit just to see what went wrong. As you can see from the attached picture a capacitor (?) on the hypex module around SMPS has melted and probably shortcircuited? I did not see any other visible damage other than overall hazy coating on all components nearby. Hard to say what has happened, the packaging is quite tight and possibly the power supply components can heat up faster that expected on some OEM casing/design. Presumably the temperature sensors are somewhere else on the board, near transistors and cannot of course measure and counteract overheating of other components.With these specs they don't appear to be too bad a load,
Fairly easy actually.
Sorry about that amp, good luck.
Sensitivity (dB/W/m): 92
Minimum impedance: 3,2
Nominal impedance: 8
That sucks, what are you supposed to do now, just eat the cost?Unfortunately, hypex does not sell the nc252mp module to individuals so just changing the amp module to fix the unit is not possible.
Only network input can auto switch the source, multi source streaming device such as devialet, dCS DAC, behave the same.So I just jumped right in and picked up a V2 for my living room. This is a shared use situation and it needs to be simple and "just work." I'm happy with how the thing functions except for one annoyance I can't figure out. If I'm listening to the tv through ARC and want to switch to Spotify, all I have to do is hit play and the unit automatically switches inputs and plays music. Great. HOWEVER, If I'm streaming Spotify and turn on the TV, the input does not automatically switch to ARC. I have to hit a button on the remote to switch the input back. This means I have to keep the remote around all the time, and I sold this to my wife as a no additional remote situation. Is there a way to get it to switch inputs back to ARC automatically? The included documentation is virtually useless.
