| Upgrade Nakamichi PA 7All power amp with mono blocks @ellajeanelle @decooney I have decided to explore upgrading the pre-amp first. Too many people have said the PA-7AII may be the strong point in the system and that the NAD may be the weak link. I am focusing on the SPL Elector and the PS Audio... | |

| Upgrade Nakamichi PA 7All power amp with mono blocks @ellajeanelle thank you for your thoughts. PS Audio sounds like a decent upgrade for me. I am also interested in their Stellar Gold pre-amp.
