I have not checked the specs on your 8’s but I’d guess they’re power hungry like my 7B’s. How does the 2200 compare to amps of today? I had a NAD 2600A when that amp first came out and it was a decent amp for the money, but after I started to modify it and really seeing how it was built I wish I would have just bought an Adcom. Guess my point is, if I was looking for an older amp from that era I’d look elsewhere like find an Aragon 4004 or a McCormack DNA 1.0 which would be a lot better of an amp. Something newer like a Parasound A21 will probably walk all over those NAD’s. If you’re looking at something real affordable from that era I’d look into Adcom which truly are better amps, a lot easier to service and something that can be easily modified. An Adcom GFA 555 will probably drive your Aerial’s just fine as far as raw power and current. Easy amp to modify too. Look inside a NAD amp and you’ll see very busy and cheap parts.
What are you using now and why the interest in these amps?
