How to calibrate your NAD audio system with the new Dirac Live mobile app

Learn how to set up Dirac Live on NAD A/V receivers and amplifiers with the mobile app for iOS and Android. The new app and its auto target curve feature simplifies the room correction process, and lets you easily optimize NAD system to bring out the best possible sound without having to make all the adjustments manually.

Struggled to get a meaningful improvement in my NAD M33 system for over a year - gave up as the desktop app always somehow sucked life out of things, lost imaging and didn't fully deal with some bass nodes. This new phone app version did it all easily, I am very pleasantly surprised. Tight bass, no woolliness. Imaging remains intact and some sibilance in the HF have been tamed without losing sparkle and life - thumbs up Dirac👍😎

How do you like the M33? I had M12 and M22 and loved them but sold them because I heard such great things about the new M33

[@richardlast5850]

​ @Chris Vlachos Love it. Over 50+ years of various amps, both tube and solid state, class A and class A/B types, I've got rid of all my 'boxes' and am enjoying the beautiful simplification of the M33. Tons of power, fabulous imaging (on my speakers anyway), very revealing and articulate. I like the BluOs software and now with Dirac sorted I'm never looking back.

Good news!

It sounds like this brought Dirac Live a lot closer to Lyngdorf Roomperfect in ease of use and results. Excellent!

Hey team, loving the new desktop updates. How does Dirac come up with the positions of the sliders? Do they just follow the speakers natural response in the room? If we’re using the sliders for a home theatre application does that mean the difference speaker groups will end up with different target curves? Because I thought that all speaker groups should have the same target curve?

[@keithiegee1]

Have Dirac changed me their default target curve? Looks like they give more bass and slight roll off of the top end.

[@paulhodgson8894]

I already have filters set up in my T758 and I’d like to edit the curves while listening via my phone. But I can only do a measurement, I can’t access existing filters. Why is this not possible? Surely the main use for a mobile app is for existing users to play with Dirac?

[@sarthakpany2732]

Really dumb question - what input do I plug the mic into? I have a NAD M33. Thx.

[@kjltube]

USB I believe

[@666dualsport]

hello-- does the T778 have a android mobile app? as all other recievers that are a quarter the price do and ive searched and cant find one?, cheers

[@tedh1979]

I'm a rookie at this but based on the Dirac Reviews being 1.7 out of 5 stars, I'll assume it isn't all me. I have a T778, which I very much regret. I've had nonstop errors all night. I perform the desktop version and I see no way of adjusting any curves. Based on the receiver being $3499, they have nerve to give me a very limited version of Dirac. The $999 Onkyo RZ50 gives you a full version. I've had nonstop errors all night long. I just want it to measure the room, adjust everything automatically, and set the settings on my receiver. Takes 30 seconds to do on a Yamaha. The desktop version gave me nightmares and I was only able to make it better by unplugging the ethernet cable and going WiFi which still gave me errors but let me continue. The microphone does it's thing, I save the file, and I go into setup and load that file, which does absolutely nothing. SO again I tried this dumbed down tablet version. I followed his steps except I had errors along the way. Might have something to do with that embarrassing dongle on a $3499 receiver. This video above makes it sound easy and at the end he said to apply it in BluOS in the audio settings. I go into BluOS, click settings, click audio, and there's nothing in there except to adjust gain. BluOS is a joke. 90% of the music services don't work. Kinda like the remote. It has a hundred buttons and 90 of them don't do a thing. How in the hell do I get a measurement and apply it to the receiver? I very much miss my flagship Yamaha and I regret selling it. YPAO was simple and it always worked great. This Dirac NAD mess is an absolute disaster and NAD has a lot of nerve to limit me to only adjust 500hz and below on a $3500 receiver. If I could return the receiver I would, and I'm on the edge of selling it for a loss. Any suggestions?

[@hennied]

Is the microphone included with the M10v2?

[@sergiogutierrez1185]

Yes

[@user-of3mb8ni7t]

Здравствуйте подскажите пожалуйста может кто-то знает что на дисплее обозначает --------------NAD M3-------------- При включении? Просто звук стал очень тихим ( в одной стороне совсем пропал может быть системный збой или защита?

[@philipmbergman]

Why is the option to select 'tightly focused imaging' as in the desktop app not available in the iPhone app? Also it’s’ Dee-rac not Dy-rac!

[@camel303]

Dirac app for android?? Yeah right, my playstore is empty for Dirac Live!

[@terjee648]

I have a nad m10 v2, this Dirac live is shitt, i try use my powerful gaming computer and the fhone app so many times and desperate to make it i put the sound more and more hi to i blow my speakers. I just can not pick up the signal. It is not my first time, i did have a jl fathom no problem and i did have a minidsp no problem.

[@VladoDzurovski]

What a waste of time. No info on where and how the mic should be facing, what the volume should be and what effect that will have later, nor how to integrate a sub properly..

[@NBPT428]

Youu guys ought to get your documentation and You Tube videos up to date. This video doesn't tell you you have to first create an account with Dirac. It doesn't tell you how to position the microphone for each measurement, looking at the manual for the M10, it is barely more helpful than the quick start guide. So many questions unanswered. e.g. Subwoofer crossover. Which one takes precedence? The one on the Sub? the one on the App? Cmon guys. Audiophiles like specifics as well as intuitiveness. Get the Sonos out of your a--!
