Affordable Processor with Fabulous 2 Channel ?

I think Eric is really saying that nobody has really come out on this thread and stated "I love my NAD processor" or "NAD processor is great because...". I have noted that NAD will tend to be on the warm side and it’s entirely a personal preference. I just went through some new amplifier changes for my home theater and have determined for myself that a warm sound just loses all the impact that HT and movies would portray. While warm would be good for music, it is just not exciting enough for movies and HT.

So you think the NAD is a bad choice for HT?  What is the best bet for both?

"While warm would be good for music, it is just not exciting enough for movies and HT."

I agree some to that but I actually prefer more neutral/analytical for music also and my NAD pre-pro/Acurus amps/Klipsch speakers combo fits the bill perfectly.

I think the new NAD Master Series such as the M17 and their matching M27 amp have different sound profile than the older NAD regular classic series gears.
The NAD M17/M27 combo have very good details and resolution but probably not on the same level of details resolution and attacks as the Classe gears but the NAD M17/M27 combo will sound great for both music and movies (HT).

The old regular classic series NAD gears have somewhat warm sound but the newer of latest Master series such as the M17/M27 amp combo have different tonal characteristics.
