NAD 7140 VS Nakamichi TA 2A

I don't buy, unless on the fly. There is nothing I need that badly to spend the kind of money folks spend on this stuff.
I have upgraded, and found that I can still find stuff that impresses me, that would not be considered that good for what it is. Average at best. My attitude is although it may not be exactly what I want, I have enough knowledge to know what to walk away from, and what to run away with. I will find something else great, or really good, at a very low price, and sell something else.
I just had limited experience with NAD, and this unit surprised me. Maybe I will act out of character and seek out the 3080.
I would be happy with a Musical Fidelity A 308, and vintage Sota Sapphire Turntable.
I like my Tannoy System 800's, and my Sony ES CDP, so the above upgrades are what I would really want. But only on the fly. Smile.

I sold the Nakamchi. So I guess that answers that. Yes. The 7140 is a keeper.

Found a unit recently and decided to run it in my system for a few weeks and was quite surprised by it.
Decided to run the 7140 next for the hell of it thinking I might sell it. Still a great unit. I will leave it in place for a while.
