Nakamichi SR versus TA

I have extensive experience with these receivers Having owned all of them at one time or another. Still have an SR-3A. I compared an SR4A directly with a TA4A and ended up preferering the SR. It is more detailed and open with a more refined and nuanced sound. The TA has more powerful bass and is a little more dynamic. I personally would not replace an SR with a TA but a lot would depend on the rest of your gear and your listening preferences. They are both insanely great sounding pieces and are sonically superior to many more expensive seperates and trendy integrated amps.

Thank you.

I have been very happy with my SRs. My main system is an SR-4A, Adcom GCD700 and Wharfedale 70th Anniversary speakers. My upstairs system is an SR-3A (which displaced a long loved Rotel RX550), Adcom GCD700 (I like the Adcom 700s), and Boston Acoustic HD9s.

I listen mostly to classical and jazz - rock once in a while.

I just had a TA-4A stolen from my storage unit. My newer Denon does'nt sound as good and now I would like to replace my old Nakamichi. Where was the TA-4A in there line at the time ? Is there a higher end model from that era. (intergrated unit) ?
Thank You

I love my SR-4A but miss the remote; it got stolen. I cannot find a working code on universal remotes and factory cannot supply a replacement. Can any one help or provide guidance? Thanks

I have an SR 3A and a TA 2A. I have found the SA to be more solidly built and less vulnerable to (inadvertant!)jarring and bumping.
