The NAD CI PA4-60 is proof that serious power doesn’t need to shout. Designed for custom installation (CI) and professional environments, this compact powerhouse is built to disappear into racks and walls—while delivering rock-solid performance behind the scenes in homes, offices, restaurants, and large multi-zone systems.
power amplifier for professional installations and built-in solutions
Part of the CI Modular Series from NAD, the CI PA4-60 is all about smart scalability. Every component in the series shares the same footprint and philosophy, making it easy to build clean, expandable installations that grow with your needs—without ripping everything out and starting over.
Don’t let the size fool you. With just 1/3 rack width and 1U height, the CI PA4-60 packs a DirectDigital amplifier rated at 2 × 120 watts. Intelligent, thermostatically controlled cooling keeps temperatures in check, even when units are stacked tightly in a rack. It’s built for real-world installs where space is precious and reliability is non-negotiable.
A very well-performing power amplifier in NAD's CI Modular Series with 2 x 120 or 4 x 60 watts.
ChassisLink: clean racks, zero drama
NAD’s clever ChassisLink system lets up to three CI units snap together side-by-side in a single rack space. No extra shelves. No awkward brackets. Just a clean, professional install that looks as good as it performs.
Grows with your system
The CI PA4-60 isn’t a dead end—it’s a foundation. Need more power? More zones? Streamers later on? The modular design makes expansion painless, whether you’re upgrading a home system or scaling a commercial install over time.
The amplifier can run as a traditional 2 × 120-watt stereo amp or be configured as a 4 × 60-watt setup, with Dynamic Power Management intelligently distributing power where it’s needed most. That flexibility makes it ideal for multi-room audio, distributed speaker systems, or mixed-use installations.

This is a compact CI amplifier with serious muscle, smart modular thinking, and installer-friendly details that make it a dream to deploy. Hidden power, done right.
