NAD has solved the hiss/static and low output from the height channels on the AM230 MDC board with the new version of the AM230.
Received a new T758 with the new board this week and couldn't be happier. This was the 3rd replacement T758 since the original purchase. Much thanks to both David at Safe And Sound (safeandsoundhq.com) and Erik at NAD for working with me on this, never 2nd guessing, being very responsive, and with David it was always my option of how I wanted to proceed; refund, credit, or replacement unit. Superior customer service from both!!!
The low output from the height channels was the real culprit in my case. The efficiency of the base layer speakers is close to the efficiency of the height speakers so a Dirac calibration would reduce L/C/R pre-amp out by 3 to 4 db (to -3 and -4 db) and boost the heights to 4 to 6 db. This caused a noticeable loss in dynamics and some headroom. Trying to solve by boosting the height pre-amp out signals through turning up the outboard amp also boosted the noise floor resulting in hiss and in the case of one of the units, both hiss and static.
I think if you have or were to have a situation where the L/C/R speakers were 4 to 6 db lower in efficiency than the height speakers it may not matter or be noticed.
My issue with BueOs has also been resolved. Not a NAD issue but specific to my set-up and was due to proximity of wireless router broadcast and T758. Resolved with an ethernet connection as I suspected it might. If you would like to go this route use USB 2.0 to ethernet vs usb 3.0. Leave the wireless dongle in place in NAD's usb hub but don't provide the wireless connection a login/password. This adapter worked perfectly

A couple of FYIs. Dolby Vision pass through was implemented in a recent firmware upgrade. DTS X does not have an implementation date from NAD as far as i know. Until then no height channels with DTS sources.
Bottom line for me is super happy with the unit now. Working as it should and it's ticked off all the boxes I was looking for in an upgrade. (18gps hdmi, Dirac with correctly implemented bass management, eliminated using a laptop for hi-res music streaming with Dirac).
