| Node 2 and Yamaha AVR, go digital or analog? Williewonka, with a Yamaha AVR and entry level Tannoy speakers, I'm surprised at the level of detail and clarity you claim. | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? OK, round two on the power cable comparison about 130 hours in. I should mention that on the CD player I have a Pangea 14 SE Power cable. My results haven't changed much. The PS Audio AC5 has a quieter background with a little more detail. Th... | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? Astewart, on the PS audio power cables I read more recently that 125 hours may see most of the burn in. I've been meaning to do another comparison with the original cable. Hopefully by the weekend. | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? Mesch I guess my cable results mirror yours. The Nad is now throwing up a soundstage with depth, and it’s as if there are no speakers. Good source material is the best, with the Nad C565BEE spinner. Seriously, it’s better than anything I could ach... | |
| I hope break in is true And that’s not the point. Obviously you didn’t use the search function either. There are TONS of threads with break in as the subject matter. Picking one that was started in the last couple of months is fine. Going back a decade is something that ... | |
| looking for interconnect under 200 dollars And a SEVEN YEAR OLD thread gets resurrected! | |
| I hope break in is true Theprelude, the previous post to which you refer is 9 years old. Surely something more recent has been said on the topic! | |
| Class D = Trash? Wow, this is a switch. The usual Class D thread typically sounds the death knell for class A/B while claiming that class D will save the world. I feel strange...and to respond to the above(shame on you all for leaving Greg hanging!), I still haven... | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? Mesch, are you able to see if your stock Nad power cable is 18 gauge? It's imprinted on the cable itself, along with various voltage and temperature ratings.As for the PS Audio AC-5, here's round one, at about 87 hours in. In direct comparison w... | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? e12389, I'll update on the weekend when I compare power cables. I was surprised when I inspected the stock cable to find that it's comprised of 18 gauge wire. Is that what you have too? That just seems awfully small for 300 watts at 8 ohms, but... | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? Wow Chris, I don't blame you for your reaction, you really got a lemon. I'd be curious to know what percentage of these Nad integrated amps develop issues. Of the current series, I've now owned 4 of them with no issues, though I've only had one ... | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? I'm with you on the volume control. The 375 is somewhat better in this regard, but most of the volume seems to be reached by 11 o'clock. I understand their new class d integrated amps have a digital volume which allows much finer increases, but ... | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? Okay, I'm about 25 hours into the break in. After about 6 hours, things started going south on the sonics. A further 10 hours or so and it stared coming back. This is leaving the unit running for a max of 4 hours at a time, and then shutting of... | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? The new 375 finally came in and I've been burning it in. Over the previous 375 that was several years old, the new one has finer volume adjustments with remote control operation. I also find I don't have to use the adjustable gain outputs on the... | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? I ended up buying from another retailer that has a BNIB 375, and I'm sure it'll sound at least as good as the used one I returned. One more thing on the comparison between the 356 and 375 as I compared them one more time before shipping this morn... |
