Another major difference between the SR and TA a lines is that the TA added "Pre-Out" and "Main-In" jacks on the back. They came with jumpers that can be removed and allow for introducing a signal processor or using these receivers for either their pre-amp or power amp sections. I can attest to the comments about the TA's that were made in China has inferior solder joints that fail over time and result in a channel dropping out or popping... that is what killed mine after some 25 years and for some reason shops do not seem to be able to trace the cause as I had it 'repaired' twice yet it still demonstrates the problem.
Nakamichi SR versus TA
I have an SR-4A as my main receiver and an SR-3A as my upstairs receiver. My SR-4A appears to have better significant stats than later non-Stasis Nakamichi receivers.
The TA-4A has a higher power rating than the SR-4A and a more complete remote.
My SRs are rock solid. I've read that for the TAs, Nakamichi moved manufacture out of Japan and therefore they are not as solid as SRs.
I've been very happy with my SRs but wondering if it may be worth picking up a TA-4A if one becomes available.
